general manner.
With the help of physical, other people can assist her physically so she get faint and are
not capable to do her personalized activity properly. Thus, external associate or societal system
provide her corporal support and assistance to her household or relatives. For example, Sandra
was finally clear their husband Mike clothes from their home with the encouragement of
