Visit from Bayada

I received a phone message from the Bayada nurse who visited Dad this week. She reports that all is fine. She gave him the B12 shot, took his readings - all good. She examined the swollen area on his arm and reports no change, no redness and no soreness or pain, so there is no concern. He has a rash on this back, which is being treated with powder. She will return on October 9th at 10am.

Dad's Weekend

It was a quiet weekend. I had to work 1/2 day on Saturday while Bettie watched Dad. Then I came home and we had flounder dinners from the dining hall. Dad watched football and I fell asleep on the couch. I woke up after Midnight and got Dad to bed.

Sunday I fixed waffles with a special pineapple-banana orange sauce. Then Bettie came over and I went to church and then to eat at Panera Bread with Susan. I then went to the Crafts store and bought some modeling clay and coloring books that look like stained glass when you put them against the window.

Dad watched some more football and I worked on the puzzle.

Yoga with Dad

I did some Yoga with Dad using Yoga for Dummies tape. Dad was moving around in the chair a lot lifting his arms and legs. Today he actually stood up for the balance pose. He also got down on the floor and attempted a cobra, but gave up saying too hard for him. He sat in the chair again and moved around a lot.

I will pick up the brunch, go to my house. I may or may not go to the pool, depending if Suzie and Jacob are able to stop by.

Karen Berg, PA Visit on Wednesday

Karen came for her visit. It has been six weeks since the last visit. She asked Dad a few questions. He replied that he was miserable but when she asked further he said that in general he was doing fine. She also checked the "hard place on his inner arm" and seemed to think it was doing okay. She will plan a visit in about 3 months. She said we can call at any time if something comes up. (I have her card next to the phone in the kitchen.)

Afterwards I talked a bit with Ilene and we talked about changing her schedule. She will look it over and share her thoughts soon. She was open to all my suggestions.

I also mentioned the laundry detergent usage and Ilene said that her son thinks she uses too much also so it doesn't bother her to be criticized. She will try to limit her wash to two times a week with small and/or "emergency" loads in between.

I told Ilene that my sisters think she is doing a great job!
