Oct 18th First Therapy!

Ok, so here is the big moment.....how well will my mother take to her first therapy session?

There are 3 members of the therapy unit here (1 occupational therapist, 2 physical therapists). They are going to take 'base lines' of what my mother can and can not do.

They tested her LEFT arm/leg and both were ok. They did the same for her RIGHT arm/leg and there was little movement.

They assisted her to sit up on the edge of her bed. Her balance was not the best. She tended to lean toward her LEFT.

At the end of the session, my mother was worn out and asked if she could 'rest'!

GREAT JOB MOM!
