CAREGIVER NOTE:

appointment with his dr went very well. Another change to his meds was discussed and hopefully there will be no “hangover” or excess dizziness to deal with. We were able to get the new med last evening and he had his first dose. He slept much calmer and no night walk or attempt to leave the house. No yelling or screaming — doesn’t mean that he won’t in the future, but last night, everyone in the house got an extra hour or two of uninterrupted sleep and so did he!

He was willing to go and get a haircut and a trim on his beard yesterday afternoon. No dizziness, but he did refuse to take his sunglasses with him and then couldn’t understand why he was “blind” for a little while after coming in from the beautifully bright and sunny outdoors.

Looks like I need to move one of the bird feeders today. The volunteer sunflowers have grown so big and tall that the birds can’t get to the feeder as of yesterday. Now to figure out where to put it…. I have an idea…. we’ll see if that works.
