[quote=Anonymous]My Dad is 86 is moves slowly. He has had both knees and one hip replaced. Congestive heart failure. He has edema in his lower legs which is really causing most of his slow moving issues. He is able to walk around the house and to and from car short distances, but any long distances he is in a wheel chair. Mom is 77 and has Parkinson's. She is able to mover pretty well still, but when I was home over Christmas, she said and I noticed that she is starting to have some drop foot in her right side. She goes to PT multiple times a week and is otherwise active. Tough to see your parents get old. [/quote]
