One of the projects I worked on this week for a patient: making a seat cushion.
I work with a man (mid-60's) who had a stroke over a year ago. The left side of his body was affected. He is pretty much home bound due to his condition and spends his days either lying down or sitting. He has a lot of pain when sitting, so I made a special seat cushion for him with some memory foam.
My sister had sent us a foam pad for our bed last year (thank you, Chrissy!) and it was a little too big, but I just left it as is. When I was thinking about making a cushion for Ludvic, I had no idea where I would get the right materials here.
Then, I had the idea to trim the foam pad to fit our bed and use the scraps to make a cushion. I also has some leftover material from a previous project and sewed a cover for it.
