Stayed with husband in hospital for 16 days. Last night he was taken to. rehab an I came home. 37 messages. People to call back. Bills to pay. Nervice about driving and parking at rehab. Got ride today. Husband says pants too tight but dint. Have bigger. Doesn't want me to buy him bigger size and hem. Would take a while any way. Find bigger size then take them to be hemmed. Before I could get more pants to him. I said can't you ask them to unbuttoned the. Button and unzip a little. He says they do what they want. I said ask a. nurse to lossen pants. He says an alarm goes off when you press button fir nurse.
Why won't thinner pants or lounge pants work?
Having pants that he won't trip on and that are comfortable at the waist is highest priority now. Put other considerations aside and accomplish that goal.
It really can be overwhelming to suddenly have an adult depending on you. Of course you are stressed. I'll bet if you were less stressed just getting some pants wouldn't seem so difficult.
My son is short and needs all pants shortened, too. He spent quite a long time recuperating after a car struck his motorcycle at threw him 80 feet. He didn't change sizes but he needed pants without snaps or zippers or buttons, as he had limited use of his arms. His wife went to Target and came back to the rehab with 3 sweatpants and a scissors. Fifteen minutes later he had a wardrobe of pants he could pull up himself. Served him in the rehab and at home while he was healing.
Try to think outside the box; this really helps when going into a situation like this.
