I'm so happy to hear that the new nurse is working out! I'm so glad you are getting some help. I pray for you and your Mom everyday.

Your Mom really needs to work to get her strength back up and that means doing the exercises!!!! Glen's Mom wouldn't do them so she just sat in a chair all day long.....only getting up when she HAD to.......and had everything brought to her. That's no way to live!!!

That is exactly what Mom would rather do...just sit. I did tell her that if she became wheel chair bound that she would have to go to a nursing home, I just won't be able to lift her.

That's what Glen was dealing with with his mother. She had lost strength and one night she got so bad that he could barely get her in bed. That was when she went to the hospital but IF she would have come home it would have been to a nursing home. People just don't have handles to help move them around and it's difficult.

That's for sure. The PT just called and said she would try and be here close to noon tomorrow. I told Mom and she gave that look and said she didn't feel like doing therapy....lol....I told her to get herself ready and in the mood because she was doing them tomorrow.

She thinks that just because the time with the therapists is coming to an end that she won't have to do the exercises anymore.....they have left diagrams and instructions for us so she is going to be doing them. I have to be careful with her though.....she is getting weaker and tires easily and I don't want her to overdo it, but she just can't sit and do nothing all day.
She always has an excuse......but I know her tricks really well.....LOLOL
