Mr Dancy Update Friday

Mr Dancy was awake when i arrived for work this morning. He did not really want to get up this morning but he did and showered along with his regular routine. He ate breakfast and afterwards he slept throughout the entire day not wanting to get up and move at all. He would not participate in any activities or walk today at all. He sat at the table from 9:30am to 3:00pm refusing to do anything. Maybe he did not sleep well night. I did have to opportunity to speak with Haidy the other caregiver yesterday in regards to him having difficulties with walking and she said that he has a very difficult time going on his walks. She stated that sometimes she fears that he may fall because he legs seems to get weak and he has a hard time completing the walks.I wanted to make sure that this was not just occuring with me. I told her that i have began to shorten the walks and forgot to mention to her that there is a wheelchair in the room to take with her and push it behind him as he walks in case a problem occurs. I will start doing the same. As you can see there was not too much that went on today. Hopefully tomorrow he will be more active.
