Guest guest Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 The problem is that mother has a fractured patella (knee cap) from over a year ago that the Dr. said would be better off to letf alone rather than do corrective surgery because of her age. So, it in coninually painfull for her. Then, on top of that, her fall Sunday, which, THANKFULLY, did not involve a broken hip, however it was found that she has a " minamally displaced fracture to her right pelvis " ..... again, PAINFUL with every move. But I have been enc ouraging her to walk with her walker several times a day and STAY UP even if it's just sitting in a chair. Anything is better than just laying in bed all of the time. I am scared to death that her muscles will wither away to nothing! and THANK YOU for all of the links. I am forwarding them to her Takayasu Dr. because he has never heard of LBD!!!!!! Argh!
