Using Sheepskin Cloth to Increase Comfort Levels
My care package from Cure SMA arrived on Thursday, and one of the items in it is a big layer of sheepskin cloth. It’s great! I can put it on my chair and it makes me feel much more comfortable. It’s good for protecting yourself from contracting pressure sores.
If you are a teen or adult with SMA and have not yet requested one of these care packages, I highly recommend you do. You can learn more about the program here: http://www.curesma.org/news/teen-adult-supportprogram.html.

I love the sheep skin! I’ve been laying on it when I do my breathing treatments. The cat thinks it for her, but she thinks everything is for her.

That’s awesome! Yeah I’m really glad it was included in the care package. It’s great for relieving pressure sores and such, and I like that I can use it for my chair or my bed whenever I need to.

Halsey – I’ve never actually used sheepskin before. I know my father used it when he was alive and he said that it was very comfortable to sit on. I may actually try putting some sheepskin on my wheelchair cushion and sit on it during the day to see if it would help. Have you ever tried using this in your wheelchair to sit on, and if so, do you find it helpful?

I have only laid on mine, but I imagine it would be extremely comfortable to sit on as well. It’s definitely very comfortable to lay on!

Sheepskin is new to me as well. It’s always fun to try something new that could be helpful.
