I got this great idea to take this polarfleece jacket and have it altered, I had them put a zipper on the side from the bottom up through the arm pit and down to the wrist. It makes it so much easier to get that arm in when she is on her back. What's that saying? Necessity is the mother of invention!

Kudos.
The last couple years of his life, Pop couldn't handle buttons which would frustrate him. I think it was partly having to go to Mom to get buttoned was embarrassing.
I took a bunch of shirts to a seamstress, (we were an item at the time so it was a freebie) and had the buttons replaced with velcro. The buttons were sewn on the outside so it looked normal. Trial and error taught us to use short strips of velcro at each button hole, rather than a long strip. That way the shirt was less likely to be misaligned and fell naturally.
BTW, You're a hell of a man, Chris.
