thank fully

What if we chose to be thankful for everything?

CAREGIVER NOTE:

Give things time – Don’t rush the process. Their brains process things differently now and it seems like it will take forever for them to filter through things. It can be difficult and frustrating for everyone; but the reward is even greater when there is a meeting of the minds.

laughter brings smiles

Share some good times today!  

CAREGIVER NOTE:

Shift the dynamics of the moment, if you can, by finding something that will change the mood of the moment to a more positive direction. A smile, a wink of the eye, even a small laugh can make a difference in the moment. Repeat as needed.

Amazing things are just around the corner.

CAREGIVER NOTE:

He picked out 2 new pairs of readers last evening after his visit with the eye specialist. He was pretty disappointed that they couldn’t do anything for his distance vision. He did seem a little more upbeat when we removed the glasses from their packaging and he put a pair on; checking to see if there was any difference while wearing them. He did notice a slight difference, but we’ll check things with his iPad today.

No talk of getting behind the wheel and driving last night. So that was a rabbit hole we didn’t have to avoid last night. Fingers crossed we won’t today or anytime soon.
