tomorrow and every day.
Month: July 2023
don’t get stuck!
Move forward one step at a time….
Leave a few today.
make it happen
CAREGIVER NOTE:
Sundowning? Yep, it’s becoming a daily part of our lives. Last night was a little worse than the night before. He chose to take a break (no suggestion from anyone else) and after a few minutes of “quiet” rest in his room, came back and was in good spirits again, even joking around a bit for the remainder of the evening.
Keep your heart open to the possibilities
CAREGIVER NOTE:
Lots of stories and conversations going through his mind. I can see the shift at times during the day when we’re not conversing aloud with each other. His eyes light up with certain memories — he’s always happy to share those with me and it almost seems like he welcomes that opportunity and not turning just sharing the thoughts with himself.
never stop counting…..
May the memories of the day…
bring happiness and joy your way.
CAREGIVER NOTE:
Dementia sucks! It’s taking its toll and we are very aware that it is progressing a little faster now. New challenges for all of us every day. His highlight of the day yesterday was to sit by the garden and watch the cornstalks grow a little taller than they were the day before.
What colors will you use today?
Make time for breaths
to refresh and move forward
