That is outstanding,I would not worry about the USB he will have his wife charge it on the charger,He has tried using the charge as a stand but falls over with the shaking?It makes you think how lucky you are
Done works well,thanks
Got a little more time on the computer. Here’s the latest iteration. There is a channel the phone will slide into, and hold it all along the sides, but not cover the buttons.
Using pics I found online, scaling them top the correct dimension in Inkscape, and getting dimensions from there.

That is great,I reckon that will do him,I will do it out of wood and that should allow weight and stability,if it works well I will see if the Parkinson’s people could use a few of them.
Instead of going to bed, I modeled the bottom half of the phone as best I could.
Here’s the STL of half of the current model. Just change the ZIP to STL like before.

EDIT: I did not take out any width for a “racing stripe” at the seam in the middle. Right now, the channel is 1.5mm wider than the phone.
