[quote=Anonymous]There are a lot of medical issues going on, but it sounds like the most pressing from a caregiver point of view is the leg injury. Would it be possible to sell her on a limited stay rehab stint? My grandmother, who is highly independent, went in for a couple weeks to heal a broken foot and learn proper techniques so she would be able to move around the house (to the bathroom, into the tub, limited steps) without injuring herself further. She is now back to reasonably full mobility for a 91 year old. My other grandmother also had good results from a rehab stint last year, and she is able to shuffle around fairly independently as well, though she still needs full time care, which has been cobbled together between the various relatives and a hired aide.
