Ok, that does it! I'm no longer a Penn State fan. From this day forward, I'm an Oregon Ducks fan (at least for this football season). Penn State lost tonight against Iowa. Bob and I watched it on TV. Of course, he was grinning ear-to-ear. For those who don't know, I'm a Penn State graduate, and I taught at Penn State for ten years before moving to Oregon. Go Ducks!
Cognitive therapy tonight had me looking dumb. I gave T words and numbers to remember. They were mixed together. For example, I'd list cat, 7, dress, sock, 6. He had to tell me the words first, then the numbers. When I gave him the five words and numbers, he repeated the words first then the numbers back to me in the order that I gave them. The problem was, I forgot what numbers I gave him. Once again, I'm proving to myself that my cognitive ability sucks.
The nurses had Bob motate his wheelchair today using his hands and feet. They took the footrests off to allow him to ambulate easier. Needless to say after a few hours of using this as his mode of transportation, Bob was exhausted.
Pray for me to regain my patience, and pray for Bob to willfully move. One day at a time...
*NEW: A PRAYER FOR TODAY from Joel Osteen
"Father in heaven, thank You for the good plan You have for my life. I choose Your plan and ask that You direct my mind and thoughts according to Your purposes. In Jesus' Name. Amen."
