Transported my brother to his first Physical Therapy appointment yesterday. The therapist did an evaluation of his strengths and had him do different exercises. She said he had some weak areas but was not all that bad. She will be seeing him twice a week for 6 weeks. Sure hope that helps with his overall weakness that he has been experiencing for several months now.
He has a little more lymphedema on his face than the last time I saw him a few weeks ago. I encouraged him to watch the Youtube videos on how to do lymphatic massage. If he doesn't move that fluid out it will eventually turn hard and be painful. Informed him of a compression garment that can also be used.
He is still not eating by mouth and is 4 months out of treatment.
