[quote=Anonymous]My mom is 69 and lives in another state. She’s scheduled for a total knee replacement in early December. She lives alone, and while my brother is nearby, he travels frequently for work and has a young family. My mom is convinced she’ll be fine managing on her own, but am I crazy to think she’ll need in-home help for at least 3–4 weeks? I’ve found a physical therapist who will come to the house for the first 2–3 weeks, which will definitely help but I still feel like she’ll need more day-to-day support, especially in the beginning. Any advice or suggestions from anyone who has been there/done that.[/quote]
