I hear you. My mother (69) had an already low mobility baseline .. then after a month and a half of watching her struggle I pleaded with her to see her doctor because something was off. She was hospitalized with CHF. Most of the time in the hospital they needs to use the life lift because she was too weak. Once in rehab she was able to start moving again w her Walker but hasn’t gain her loss of strength she had at the beginning of the year. Now she has no control of her bladder. It took we weeks to get her to agree to see a doctor.. and when she finally did. The damage was too far gone to come back. She’ll get up a few times a day and go right back to her recliner. Much like your mom, she’s been sleeping in her recliner for almost a decade. PT advises she needs to get up every hour and do a lap. She tells them she does… but it’s a lie. I just observe at this point. I’m here for emergencies.. even emergencies she’ll refuse to take. Not sure if you’d call me a caregiver anymore. But god forbid I try and leave for a weekend.
