This might sound crazy -- check that -- this very much sounds crazy, buy my Dad took his first actual shower in many years today. After four days of brutal heat, I was able to talk him into a "cool" shower.
It went much better than I expected. I helped him in and out, but he did pretty well on his own for the actual washing part.
He said it felt good. I said he could do this whenever he wants to feel good and clean and refreshed. He doesn't need to exist in "scarcity mode" if he doesn't want to. (We run water off of a somewhat shallow well, but it's honestly not that expensive to have it re-filled when needed.)
It's also 10:45 in the morning and I'm exhausted.
