[quote=Anonymous]My mom is 75 and literally hobbles around. She has bad balance and falls. She has had heart surgery and orthopedic surgery in the past 5 years and didn't do the rehab associated with either surgery. I'm not a doctor, but in my mind this was the start of her decline. I think she would be in better shape if she had done both (or even one) of the required rehabs and tried to do something gentle like walking a few times a week. I think 75 is young to be in such bad shape and I fear she is going to need assisted living soon and will be upset that she's living with the "old people," as she calls them.[/quote]
