Today was a good day. We picked up my engagement ring. Now, reality is setting in. Although, nothing will be any different than it has been for the past four years, there just a feeling of being connected. It's hard to explain.
Bob is very aware that he has lost about a year and a half of time. He knows that when he says something just happened, to us, it has been two years. He's learning not to argue with me about when something happened. He'll tell me he just talked with someone a few weeks ago, but in actuality, it's been two years. How frustrating would that be? Sounds like some movies I've seen.
Memory seems to be slowly improving. The problem now is that Bob combines five different happenings into one story. Let me tell you, those stories are quite interesting. Combining over heard conversations with what he sees and what we've done is quite a puzzle to decipher. :-)
Bob walks without assistance everywhere now. He gets "pooped", but he stills plugs along. He pushes my wheelchair, which he uses as support (I guess that's some assistance.) But, if he didn't have to push me, he wouldn't use type of assistance. :-)
