Thanks,

I think my mother has this, see before she was this bad she was falling down. She was on a walker to help steady her as I get it. But one night (she was upstairs at the time) she was using her walker and she fell forward OVER THE WALKER and busted the bridge of her nose. She bleed a awful lot but they didn't give her blood (not a religon thing) aftetr that she was moved down stairs my son conveince her. After the hospital she went worse they seem to blame it on a fall she took after being out of the hospital a therapist told her to hold on to the walker when she fell (I don't know they told her this don't make sense to me) anyway it has been down hill from then. They thought she had water on the brain and out shunt (I can't spell it I am sure) in but the falling continued. She then was not able to walk anymore but she was aable to manage a few steps.but while I was there she lost that ability. She leans to one side to the right and she can't seem to straighten herself up she has not been leaned to one side till here of late, A year or two I think.
