Your profile says that your grandma is 27. I'm guessing that is your age, correct? It also says that grandma has on top of arthritis, a broken hip, cancer, depression, diabetes, hearing loss, heart disease, sleep disorder, stroke and urinary infection. If all that is true, I'm surprised that you only asked about her arthritis, as that is one of the lesser issues. Something just doesn't seem quite right here.
I have osteoarthritis, and live by myself, with no help from anyone, nor with any kind of "process." You just learn to live with it, and keep living your life.
I sure hope that you're not one of those people that like to waste good caring peoples time. And if you're not, then we definitely need some more information.
We will need more information in order to give you suggestions:
- how old is your grandmother - what is her living situation: alone? w/you in your home? w/you in her home? w/her spouse? - does she have any cognitive challenges - what other medical problems does she have - in what state does she reside - how is her financial situation - what kind of arthritis does she have? Where in her body? - can she carry out her ADLs
