My wife has bulbar onset an can't speak and has swallowing problems. She lost use of her right hand (her writing hand) about 6 months ago. She had been able to walk slowly until recently when she started falling on a regular basis. Her falls have resulted in broken wrist, compression fractures in her spine, cuts and bruises on arms and several large bumps on her head. She has a walker, rollator, cane and safety rails in key areas. The major problem is she won't listen to my advise and lost the ability to reason logically. Tonight she had two falls about 30 minutes apart, one banged her elbow and the other put a big bump on her head. She tries to do things that she is not capable of doing anymore. The neuro has said that she has cognitive problems where it's hard to follow logical sequences and decisions. How can I stop her from walking which results in for many falls
