Mom Pumping Iron

Today was another round of Physical Therapy. Mom started off by walking briskly on the treadmill. Then her therapist decided to step thinks up a bit. Mom had her first round of weight lifting. She used a number of nautilus machines that work various muscle groups in her legs. Stronger legs will equal better balance.

After mom's workout, she had Speech therapy. She was discharged last week for the swallowing portion of therapy, and she was told that June 30 she will be discharged from the speech side.

Bottom line is, She's not better but the insurance won't allow any more. I talked with the therapist and she said we can probably get it started again in about 6 months. I've paid close attention to the activities they have done, so we'll just continue to do them at home on our own. The therapist has already sent a lot of material home with us for "homework".
