My question is about my mom’s condition
• Age 73
• Married – For 48 Years - @ 1966, (My Dad passed away in 2014)
• Retired as a school teacher
• Never had any adversities in life and my Dad used to take care of all her needs – Such as Banking, Shopping etc.
• She was very soft spoken and always tries to be in the back seat ( Never takes any initiative)
• Very religious ( Christian Faith )
• No illness or sickness ( Such as Diabetics, Cholesterol, Blood Pressure etc. )
Once he passed away, she tried to stay alone and then developed depression
• Never steps out of the home
• Fear and Anxiety
• Memories from the past ( even prior to her marriage ) – She has a feeling that she is a sinner
• Never eats or take any initiative to do things
Current Situation
• At an Elderly home care ( Almost 2 years )
• No memory loss, no other Illness
• Takes medication for depression
• Never eats by herself. The staff feeds her
• Not interested in religion, but remembers hymnals, bible verses etc
• Though physically able, she prefers to be in bed.. ever for her day to day needs
• Folds her leg, never walks or attempts to walk, Someone holds her by shoulders
• Not motivated at all.. for a come back

Will there a come back ?
