[quote=Anonymous]My mom has become increasingly frail with shortness of breath and she is very deconditioned. She also has mild cognitive impairment. She lives in an assisted living facility where she receives physical therapy and treatment for anxiety and depression. Her doctor has tried to adjust her medicine and add in additional PT to try to get a better response, but she is declining. She has received extensive medical testing although we are looking at other options. Has anyone had any luck reversing this downward trend with their parents? She feels weak so she she stays in bed and then just becomes more deconditioned. Thank you for any suggestions.[/quote]
