@jakedduck1 I remember you mentioning that your mother had an OT appointment this past Monday. How did it go? Did you learn anything to help both of you? Let us know!

@jakedduck1 I’m so glad you got an appointment with OT! They can help with so much! Does your area have a transportation program for seniors? Look into that. Also, ask the OT if she recommends help with lifting and moving your mother. She can maybe make a professional recommendation to the doctor. Ask if a “Hoyer lift would be helpful. It’s a sling-type chair that helps lift a person from bed to chair and back again. Easy to use, safe, and saves your back. Let us know how the appointment goes, will you?
