Pray for my mother's therapy
PostPosted: Wed Oct 11, 2006 11:59 am
My mother had a severe stroke on March 1st, 2005. She suffered extensive brain damage and lives in a nursing home. She can not walk or speak, and recieves nutrition by way of feeding tube.
We started noticing some improvement in her alertness, so we requested that the therapists on board at the nursing home asess her case again (after all therapy had been abandoned over a year ago). Evidently the did today. The speech therapist called my house, but since my father was not there she hung up before I could ask what was going on (AUGH!).
They have ordered one month of therapy (5 days a week) and if they see any improvement in that time Medicaid will pay for more. So 1, praise the Lord, and 2, please pray that they see at least enough improvement in one month to request further funding from Medicaid.
Thank you!
