Hi
just a question if anyone can help
I'm not sure which one of the options i should choose
my wife helps me in and out of the bath and  i am then able to wash myself
but i am unable to find any advice on the fact that i cannot dry myself
and my wife has to do that as well
thanks in advance

    The ability to dry yourself is not considered.
