Emily-glad your mom is getting PT and OT. Peter's PT told us that they couldn't do a lot for PWPs,but that helping him with walking & balance was possible--sounds like those would be good for your mom! I think it did help him, though it's hard to get him to do the exercises-- he does like to walk and has not at present fallen much, so his situation is different from hers. Good she has you to run interference for her!
