Dad went to Symphony
Not only did Dad say he wanted to die, but that he WOULD die that evening. However, he has always been predicting his death (in the last 20 years), so I tried to cheer him up by reminding him of that. Also I said that I would miss him, that I needed to take care of him, that he is a good example to other people, etc. I hope it helped him!
Dad and I attended the symphony on Sunday afternoon. I was able to get an inexpensive senior ticket in the handicapped area (with individual chairs) at the Stevens Center.
Dad did not have much reaction to the music, but he said he enjoyed it. And it was a nice walk (about a block). I may take him to the New Years Pops concert next year.
During the weekend I worked on the jigsaw puzzle, and watched Dad. We are eating more in the dining room so that we can watch TV. Also since Dad stays at the table for a while after I am finished eating, I can be in the same room with him and it seems more friendly.

Dad's Visit from the Go Program
The physician's assistant came to visit Dad today. She asked Dad some memory questions. She asked him to name some animals. He mentioned polar bear twice, bear, some others, then said Christmas Tree. twice He mentioned places he lived, Norfolk, Chicago, Washington. He said he liked Washington the best. The doctor may increase his Namenda. She said a normal dose was 2x a day. (He takes one dose a day). She also watched how he walked and seemed to think he walked fine.
It was a nice visit. The PA will come back again in six months.

Dad did fine last weekend. We went out to dinner on Saturday and had swordfish with bean salsa. Dad did not eat much of the fish, but he ate his carrots and cake and some of his salad.
However on Sunday he developed an uncontrollable diarrhea. Bettie stayed with him in the afternoon and he had another episode then. Later that evening he had a third episode. Dad said he wanted to die. But he did not look in any pain; however, the diarrhea must have been burning to say the least. (there must be something going on--I have an achiness in my abdomen as well, not sure if it is related or different, but I didn't have diarrhea, but constipation).
I did not give him his Senna last night, may withhold it one more evening.
He is eating okay this morning. Maybe I will serve him some chicken noodle soup for lunch. I am keeping him home from Senior Services to make sure he is alright.
