for me, the microwave was the key. If you are able to open the fridge
and retrieve a pre-made meal and place it in the microwave you are on
your way to, at least somewhat, prepare your own meals.
For instance, I would have my caretakers prepare a meal such as
macaroni and cheese casserole, spaghetti, etc. and put it in the
fridge on a shelf that I could easily reach. I would take it out, put
it in the microwave, warm it up and when it was done take it out and
put it on the table. I was always sure to place a thick cloth on my
lap so that I would not get burned.
That's about as much as I am capable of. But a warmed up meal is
better than a cold meal. :-)

my response:
JUST WONDERING WHAT THINGS YOU ARE ABLE TO USE IN THE KITCHEN TO
PREPARE MEALS FOR YOURSELF OR TO ACCESS LEFTOVERS, MILK ETC. TRYING
TO MAKE MY SONS HOME LIFE AS EASY AS POSSIBLE AND AS INDEPENDENT AS POSSIBLE.
MAKING A LIST....
THANKS!
Peace be with you........

Honest criticism is hard to take, particularly from a relative, a
friend, an acquaintance or a stranger.
