Old habits die hard
This morning I learned that mom has not been cooperating with the physical therapists – one of the nurses described her behavior of late to me and I said, hey, sounds like my mom. A long time ago she told me that if someone told her to do something she would do the opposite even if it meant harm to her. I asked her then, and you think this is a sound policy? Maybe you might want to rethink it. And sure enough another nurse said that mom is limiting her own recovery by stubbornly refusing to cooperate. I said, hey, I know!
