this is goign to sound really weird.. but my gma (who is 82 or 83 (not sure)), she has arthritis, and what helps her is playing with my silly putty that i used to have, or playing with this stressball thing that my mom has. but the thing is, that only helps for a few hours.. is there anything else that'll help her? like, nothing like creams or anything.. but like, exercises for her hands.. or something?..... because she likes to do needle work and all this beading stuff and everything, but can barely pick up a pencil at times to write down the phone number of someone who called for me..

someone please help!
