The Info Frustration is a Promise Breaker and Unsafe | Health News

Frustration is emotionally draining.  Stroke survivors cannot afford 15 seconds of frustration as they struggle to pull up their pants one-handed every time they go to the bathroom or 15+ minutes of frustration while cutting up food.  Fatigue is common after a stroke so the energy frustration uses is not good.  If frustration exhausts stroke survivors, the promise they made is going to be broken.  

Frustration can also be unsafe.  Safety awareness goes out the window as frustration mounts.  Grunting and concentrating fiercely for ten minutes while struggling to open my hand during an OT session is one thing.  Cutting off a piece of my finger is another.  Dropping a therapy ball is not the same thing as dropping a knife.  In my opinion, activities that require knives or high heat should be done by working smarter instead of harder. See one solution below.

 

I avoid frustration and increase safety when cutting up food.  For example, I cut up an orange using a Swedish Deluxe cutting board that has a vise.

Graham Drummand has arthritis.  He designed a cutting board that gives him control even though he is unable to fully close his hand around the knife handle or the food.  I am sure frustration and safety issues motivated him to design this cutting board.
