wait wait wait...

Bob is just bidding his time waiting for the pressure wound to heal, his infections to be cleared, and his leg strength to improve. He's ready to break out of the VA joint. I feel that his memory has significantly improved. He actually knows where he is now on a consistant basis.


I mixed grape juice and apple juice together in a bottle for him to drink. Bob told me the new juice is called "grapple". Tell me, does that sound like a person whose brain is thinking or not? THINKING, I think!


We played "Guess Who?" today. He learned the strategies for winning very quickly. We had fun.


I taped one of his eye lenses of his glasses, so he's able to use just one eye for vision. His eyes still aren't coordinating well. Bob closes his one eye automatically, in order to see an object; otherwise, he's looking at two separate things. It drives him crazy.

A PRAYER FOR TODAY
"Father in heaven, today I declare my thanks to You for all You have done in my life. Help me see Your hand of blessing as I continually acknowledge and praise Your name. Fill me with Your peace and joy as I keep You first place in all that I do. In Jesus' Name. Amen"

First day of autumn...

The temperature for the first day of autumn was 100 degrees. It was quite warm. T and I sat outside for a short while. Needless to say, we baked.

T had an hour of physical therapy this evening. Nettie, the PT, attempted to stand t up. I need to take my "sitting yoga" DVD so, we both can stretch. T is very stiff from lying down for almost five months. Nettie, also, practiced rolling from side to side with Bob. He is slower than a snail. It'll come.

The OT ordered an exam with an optometrist. He thinks a patch over one eye will decrease the amount of confusing stimuli both eyes are giving T's brain. T's gaze looks as though he's looking through a wall of water.

One day at a time...
A PRAYER FOR TODAY FROM Joel Osteen
"Heavenly Father, I know what you've put on the inside of me. By faith I see the dreams you've given me coming to pass, no matter what my circumstances are. I am full of Your power and I'm ready to become everything you created me to be. In Jesus' Name. Amen"
