I am a caregiver for my mom who is 88.
She has macular degeneration (dry kind) and is not able to
read most things. I read to her and when I can, I print
articles and emails in large font. She can still feed and
dress herself, but I want to be prepare for the next stages
as her sight gets worse. I would appreciate any
suggestions from anyone who has gone through the same
situation.
