CAREGIVER NOTE:

He’s enjoyed having visitors this week. A son and grandson. While this was a “working” trip, they were still able to spend some time together and take care of some family business. Anxiety ran high one day while the son had to be away for most of the day… I’m not sure how he will handle things today as our guests have to fly out in a couple of hours and it’s likely they will miss seeing each other as it’s an early flight.

Memory issues continue to progress. Lots of repetition and reframing throughout the day and evening. He did get a new watch that now tells him the time with the push of a button — He does manage to push the wrong button on occasion and set an alarm or two or reset the time, but we’ve been able to get it back to rights and he’s happy again.

We found a bevy of photos buried in some files on his computer. Oh the memories they hold! We’ve transferred them to an external hard drive for safe keeping — he spent a couple of hours looking through the pictures and was very happy with those memories. We are blessed to have found those and I’m pretty sure he’ll enjoy looking through them again in a day or so.
