Boredom is setting in...

Bob has intellectually improved to the point that he's getting bored sitting around all day. I am visiting with him most of the day; however, from 1pm to 5pm, I am not. He was sitting on the "pot" when I arrived this evening. He said he was telling the nurses anything to get out of the wheelchair and not back in bed because he was so bored.

Aunika and I visited Bob this evening. We left around 6pm. He wanted me to come back after dropping Aunika off at the house. We left him watching tv in the lounge. There is a big window that looks out at the parking lot. When I returned, he was sitting in the same spot, looking out the window for me. I felt like he was wagging his tail when I arrived.

We worked a little on memory. He was hot and cold on some of the same memory questions that I've worked on in the past. Thank goodness, he finally remembers we live in Roseburg, Oregon, and he believes it.

Pray for me to have patience, and pray for Bob to willfully move. One day at a time...

A PRAYER FOR TODAY from Joel Osteen
Father God, thank You for giving me power to overcome fear. I choose to face fear head on and drive it out of my life. Show me any areas of my life where fear is holding me back so that I can press forward into the life of victory You have for me. In Jesus' Name. Amen."
