Mom's Problems

The Author of this post is Velma Baird

My mom broke her hip a few months ago in a fall at her home and she’s been more or less laid up ever since. The doctor says she’ll probably never regain her full mobility since she’s getting pretty elderly anyway but I’m hopeful that with the rehab and daily walks she’ll get better. She had been complaining about how bored she was at home all day so I went to DIREC.TV and looked into satellite packages for her since she really loves old movies. I found one I can afford without her help and it’s been my gift to her during her recovery! I love my mom and I wish I could be there every day to keep her company but since I have a full-tie job it’s going to take a while for me to be able to start getting home early to help her do some of her daily tasks. Hopefully she’ll continue to get more mobile and won’t need as much help doing things as she does now – it will be best for her.
