good day...

Bob went for a long walk with his dad today. I thought they'd only make it to the end of our property and back. They walked a few blocks.

Yesterday, I wrote in my blog that Bob's memory rejuvenates itself after a sleep. Last night he didn't remember his house in Fairmont, MN. I thought that after a good night's sleep, if he saw pictures of his home in Fairmont, he'd remember. I was wrong. I showed him several pictures of the inside and outside. He remembered the outside, but said he never lived in a house that looked like the one in the pictures. According to Jill Bolte Taylor, there were things that she didn't remember, people continuously reminded her these things, and she didn't want to remember them. She only wanted to remember good things. She felt that her brain aneurysm gave her a fresh start to move forward positively. So, does Bob really need to remember his house in Fairmont? He will if his brain chooses. More importantly, he needs to remember his current address.
