Wed 2-Dec-09 (Physio visit, RT 10/25)

A physio who saw Maria some time ago came again for a visit after a referral from the hospital. She spent some time and came up with items that Maria will need, including a walking stick (she had one on hand and was able to leave it for her), a seat walker, shower chair and throne (goes over the toilet bowl and has handles on each side).

Maria was reviewed again after her RT session as her throat doesn't seem to be improving. She was given a script for liquid morphine and some medicated lozenges. Maria had them later in the evening and tolerated the lozenges well, but refused any further doses of morphine due to its taste.
