"I don't know"...

I met a person today who has survived three brain strokes, one each year for three years in a row. He said that he's confident that Bob will recover fully. I, too, feel confident. (as many of you have already gathered that about me.)

Well, Bob and I are leaving on a international flight tomorrow. At least, according to my T, we are. He was watching something on the Olympics when he said that. I've said many times, our conversations are centered around what is on TV. This time, though, he wouldn't believe anyone as to the actual location of where he was. Bob had trouble today staying in the present locale.

Cognitive therapy: Bob remembered the pictures we reviewed yesterday. So, today I worked on rapid recall. He wasn't "into" it too much today. He felt there wasn't too much benefit in doing the activity. When he gets in that mind-set, he says, "I don't know"; he doesn't know the names of anything. He digs in his heels and refuses to do anything but stare at the ceiling. Ugh...
