Just an update....we love the nurse, Mom has really warmed up to her AND the Physical Therapist. She absolutely loves the Home Health Aide, but still not sure about the Occupational Therapist (he's a man and really nice). The first PT we had we both didn't care for but this one is a keeper.
I still have trouble getting Mom to do the exercises. She whines for me, but does great for the therapist. I'm glad they are here and helping and especially that they are so nice. I really like them all. The only complaint....I always know what day they are coming....but never what time of day. Other than that....it's so nice to have some help.

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.
