Arthritis can cause such a lot of discomfort in so many ways when you get older.
It was one thing when mum started to lose her sight a bit as she got older; she still managed to knit things for all her grandchildren, and could do most of it from a good memory.
However once arthritis started to cause her the discomfort that it typically does, her knitting needles became something which caused her pain and not pleasure.
Mum has knitted things since she was younger than me.
She knitted my school jumpers and I always had some striped something or other from socks to scarves from remnants! Her hands have always been nimble.
Arthritis is strange because it makes your fingers painful but they can also swell and become stiff.
It is very frustrating to watch somebody try to accomplish something that used to be so easy.
That is when we starting trying some remedies to see if we could help her.
I am the one in the family that is more inclined to try natural treatments so I looked into some of the remedies available.
There are all different types of arthritis but two of the main ones are rheumatoid and osteoarthritis.
Not knowing which one mum had, as there is also another type which appears more with age which is degenerative arthritis, we thought we would try something which has helped many people with the symptoms, so I bought her some omega 3 fish oil.
Most people do not get enough of this type of oil in their diet anyway so it was worth a try.
Sure enough, it has helped her immensely.
Now? Well she is no longer with us, but I know that she managed to knit right up until she couldn't sit up.
The good part was, her quality of life was helped by a natural arthritis treatment.
Who would have thought that a natural arthritis treatment using an oil supplement could bring somebody so much more pleasure and quality of life by relieving some of the symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis? I didn't, but now I endorse the use of natural products to all the people I care about who suffer from arthritis.
