I didn't do my usual split shift visit like I've done since May. My class started today at UCC. It's an online class. If the VA had wireless, I could visit my T all day and still do my class. But, they don't, so, I waited until 5:30pm. I missed Bob terribly. You don't understand. When Bob would go on his business trips to wherever without me, we would talk on the phone most of the day; literally, 99.9% of the day!
Bob received a new "fitted" wheelchair today. It fits the length of his legs properly; it fits the angle of his ankles properly; and, he has a nice, soft cushion for the seat. He wheeled it like he was training for a marathon. He gave me a "run for my money".
Bob did well with memory tonight. I gave him 5-6 cards to memorize. After studying the hand, he turned the hand over. I removed one card. He looked at the cards again and told me which one I removed. His success rate was close to 100%.
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 God, thank You for Your grace and mercy. Thank You for the good plan You have for my life. Help me choose my friends and companions wisely so that I can continue to move forward in the destiny You have for me. In Jesus' Name. Amen."
