I hear ya! About three years ago I started to go to a salon for pedicures — which I hate, but are necessary now. Too many aches and pains now.
I haven’t given in to it for myself YET as I can still manage my own after a fashion but I do have to take my husband to get his toenails cut - they are much too tough and deformed for me to do besides I can’t bend over to do his. I’ve tried doing them sitting in a chair while he’s in the recliner but I still can’t manage it. It’s very difficult getting him in and out of the car to take him anywhere except for medical appointments but the nails need to be cut and that’s the only way. I have a caregiver one morning a week to help so I can get to the store etc., but they are not allowed to cut toenails. He does enjoy the spoiling he gets from the Vietnamese ladies at the salon so it is a highlight of at least one day for him.
