Blame it on me...

I created a little bit of a ruckus this morning. I decided to call my T on his cell phone. He didn't answer. But, when he called me back, he was laughing. He said I woke everyone up. He said that his phone was ringing loud, and when he got up and out of bed, he set off the bed and stand-up alarm. Nurses were running to Bob's aid, since he's a risk for falling, and his phone was ringing. Hahaha...can you imagine that fiasco!


I bet Bob will sleep good tonight. He did a lot of walking today. He did some rolling around on the physical therapy table. Rolling from laying on his back to his stomach was nearly impossible, but he did it. He also rode the stationary bike for twenty minutes. So, I believe he'll sleep well tonight.


Cognitive therapy: We went on a picnic and took things from each letter of the alphabet. Each person needed to recite all of the items listed, then add to the list by naming an item for the subsequent alphabet letter. For example, we went on a picnic and to apples (mine), banana (his), canalope (mine), dogwood (his), envelopes (mine), food (his), a guinie pig (mine). That's all he could remember. We'll work on that memory skill tomorrow.
