Dad and the Election

A few weeks ago I requested a absentee ballot for Dad. I asked him though what he wanted to vote for Democrat or Republican, I didn't want to assume anything, but I was very glad he said Democrat. He didn't say much else, but he told Dot today that he knew that there had been an election and that the Democrats won. When she asked him who won he said Obama.

This past Friday Dad was not sleepy at all. He wanted to know where his money was and wanted to see a pay statement. I found the bank statement and he was very angry about how the money was being spent, saying he couldn't afford it. I told Bettie that he was wide awake but she still said she wouldn't mind coming in. She was worried it upset me--it did a little, but not as much as she assumed. But I was glad to leave Dad that evening.

Sunday he was very sleepy most of the day. He revived again in the evening, telling me how stupid I was, etc. That he couldn't afford to spend $100,000 a month. Oh well. It does make me think a bit about how I spend the money!

Dad Was really Talking this weekend

Dad was really speaking this weekend! I didn't really see him much until Saturday afternoon, since I came in late Friday for a short while (and he was sleeping).

Saturday I came in about 5 and left and came back about 10. Dad was watching TV. He went to bed about 11 pm. But he woke up very early. I noticed an odor but didn't arise as quickly as I could have. Dad had turned the oven up to 450 and was attempting to warm up his pants. When I opened the oven I saw the blackened clothes, burning slightly. I quickly tossed them in the sink! Dad tried to touch them. Then he started looking for his pants again! The alarm then went off and a security guard came by and talked with Dad and I for a few minutes. All this time Dad is walking around without his cane! He mentioned that he had fallen, but appeared to be in okay shape.

After breakfast Dad insisted on driving, "just a block". He had been talking the day before about how the car had been wreaked and such. Also he asked where Mom was. Then he seemed shocked when I mentioned Jennie. He said she is married? Really! Then he said that I was married to him. And he asked if my father was still in the Army. (He looked at a card from Norman Short, his naval academy roommate--most of the time he NEVER reads).

He went to the car and even though I was protesting, got into the driver's side. He almost fell trying to get into the car, but managed to steady himself. I had called Chip for some moral support. During the phone call to Chip he seemed very talkative and such. I finally told Dad I should at least drive out the driveway before he drove. Then after that I let Dad steer the wheel, he turned the wheel for a short ways then seemed satisfied with the performance of the car.

Dad talked a lot about his knees hurting him so I rubbed some aspercreme on them. I hope that helped them. Later we decided to call his roommate and he told the roommate how awful he felt, that he had broken both his legs, etc. etc. He said everyone had died, his mother, his father, his sisters, (though he did not mention Mom). He also asked where some building was at the naval academy that he needed to go to. He also mentioned that he wanted him to come to visit but that he would not be able to play golf.

He also kept insisting that I was his wife. [It was flattering I must say.]

At dinner he said he felt he could eat again (he had a hard tine eating his green beans at lunch). It wasn't so much what he said, it was his tone of voice--very positive and he seemed to be able to think, though he sounded like he was a bit amnesic. Even though he asked a lot of questions (some over and over), I was happy that he was talking!

Sunday night asked what he should wear the next day (he had said previously that he felt good enough to go to the office). I said the green pants. He woke me up at 4 am and showed me the blue pants and shirt he had picked out. Then he put the clothes on and sat on the dining room chair a couple of hours till I got up! It was nice that he was able to dress himself.

Dad looks Gaunt

I came by on Wednesday. Dad seemed thin. I don't recall him getting thinner, but I did notice that his belt had to be tightened more lately.

He does have trouble eating at times. I have to remind him to continue eating. So basically he eat about what I eat (but I also eat more snacks later). He never asks for food, though I do offer him nuts and ice cream at night.

Dad's Weekend

This past weekend I worked on Saturday, so Friday was my day off to go the Dixie Fair with Suzie and Ella. We had fun eating deep fried Oreos, deep fried vegetables, lemonade, etc. And enjoying the baby changing tent so Suzie could feed Ella.

Unfortunately Dad had a Number 2 accident in his pants! I think he thought he was passing gas. He got up to use the toilet but it was too late.

I was putting together a jigsaw puzzle and asked where the Kara Sea was. Dad had a sense that where he thought it might be. I had never heard of it. After hours of being totally silent, he said where it was located, just as if he hadn't been quiet for hours. (I have now forgotten what he said.)

I sent away for an absentee ballot for Dad. (I hope he votes for Democrats, but he may vote for John McCain, as he used to really like him!).

Dad's Weekend

Ilene stayed with Dad late this Friday. I came in at 11:30 pm. I picked up Bettie because she was unable to get a ride and drove her to Dad's home.

On Saturday evening I came and picked up Dad. We went to the grocery store with Bettie. Dad enjoyed riding on the electric scooter in the store. Later I drove Dad to the dining hall to get a little walk. He stayed outside on the bench while I went it to get the meal. He talked to a couple of people who were also sitting. We had a nice mahi fish meal.

Sunday Dad woke up about 9 am. He made a sound of surprise when he woke up as if he was being startled, but he went back to sleep for a few more minutes. Maybe scary dreams or perhaps when he wakes up reality hits him hard! Later we went to my house where we ate the meal that I picked up. I added some roasted vegetables (zucchini, squash, eggplant, red onion and red, orange and yellow peppers). The dining room is getting into a rut of plain green beans and too-buttery carrots.

Dot came over last night for a few hours and gave Dad a shower. Before she came over he went over to the shower stall and tried to get into it

Dad seemed a little apathetic this weekend but this morning seemed more lively (maybe the shower woke him up?) He put on his pants by himself and seemed willing to do the exercise bike contraption. Earlier this weekend he didn't want to do it--said he wasn't able to do it!

This morning I noticed Dad hadn't had a bowel movement since Friday. So I asked Dot (who is watching Dad tonight) to give him the rest of the prune juice in the can and give him an overnight laxative.

Bettie will be coming in tonight about 11:30. Ilene will be coming earlier on Wednesday to help with grocery shopping. She has a gift card from Food Lion to use.

Dad More Active this Weekend

Saturday Dad walked around the house more. Bettie reported that she got up at 6 am and couldn't find Dad. He was in the garage sitting in the car. I guess he wanted to go somewhere. He told Bettie he wished he could drive. Bettie said she wished she could drive him but she doesn't drive (she was in an accident a few years ago and didn't drive after that).

On Sunday morning he woke up about 6 am and went into the kitchen. He started to make coffee, putting water in the pot, but then stopped. He did put the coffee itself in the refrigerator. Then he went to bed again. Later he came into the kitchen, (without being helped out of bed), and said "Did you feed the children" (implying I was Mom!). Later he asked did I feed my children (he might have been trying to say that he knew I was his daughter, Not Mom!

At my house Dad asked for more chicken, (usually he justs eats what is on the plate only). Later that afternoon he went to the kitchen and searched for something to eat.

He was more expressive when he was talking, telling me he wished he could do something about the nails in his legs. (I gave him some Ibuprofen.). He said that he was sorry he couldn't drive but his legs were not well.

He also asked me some questions about why my last boyfriend left me. And he continued the conversation, what did he do when you broke up, how did he feel, etc.

Later we watched the football game and enjoyed the Panthers last second winning touchdown. I also watched the tennis US Open with Dad.

It was a nice evening. Dad watched another football game, but later said it was a waste of time it took place too far away.

Dad tries to play poker

Last Saturday night I fell asleep watching Saturday Night Live. I woke up and found Dad had pulled a dining room chair to the very front of the TV and was watching a poker game on TV.

Dad tried to play poker by using the remote control to move the cards that were being displayed on the screen. He really wanted to play!

The next time it comes on I will try to record it so that he can watch during the day as I think the games are normally on after midnight when he is normally asleep.

Dad's Visit with Dr. Lichstein

Dad saw Dr. Lichstein this morning. He was quite animated at first, telling Dr. Lichstein about being stationed in Washington DC and how his ship's propeller had to be fixed.

Dad's blood pressure seemed a bit high about 155, but Dr. Lichstein said that the bp readings seem to run higher in his office. His weekly pressure runs about 124 systolic.

Dr. Lichstein is prescribing a cream to help with Dad's itching. He thinks Benadryl is not so great, (because it causes some confusion), but Claritin ok for his itch. I explained that I only give it to him at bedtime though, so he was alright with that. He also stopped the Oxybutyn, saying that it can also cause confusion. (Dad probably doesn't need to worry about frequent urination at this point in time). Dad also has his blood drawn for thyroid function.

I was wondering if Dad was hearing as well, as he asks "what" a lot. The nurse removed a lot of wax from his ears, but couldn't remove some from his right ear. Dad was complaining too much. She explained that it can really hurt when it is ripped off the ear drum. We will put ear drops in his right ear for a few days.

Dad is only going to Senior Services once a week now on Mondays. Ilene wants to stay through Thursdays. This week she will have Friday off since it is the Fourth of July. I will stay with Dad that day.

I have gotten in the summer habit of eating a light breakfast on Sundays with Dad, then watch Sunday Morning on CBS, do some yoga (Dad sometimes stretches, sometimes snoozes), then order the lunch, keep it warm in the oven for a couple of hours, eat about 2 pm, go to my house, feed the cats, watch golf, come back in the evening, watch sixty minutes on CBS, have salad and pizza, watch something light. Then wake up Monday morning and go to senior services about 11 am or so.
