Aug 20, 2012 Update

Just a quick update on Dad.  Dad was pretty depressed this morning, just sick and tired of feeling sick and tired.  He was pretty emotional and said he wasn't going to SIRS today.  Deb and I had a conversation with Dad about the need to get out and do more and hopefully the more he does the better he will start to feel.  Dad did agree to go to SIRS and he did well except for his hearing aid battery going dead.  Dad got dressed and even put on shoes and socks for the first time in a few weeks.  On the way home, Dad said I did pretty well, huh?

When we got home I asked him if he wanted to take a nap and I would give him his IV in bed, he said no and stayed awake.   I could see him re-grouping and getting his fight back.

Tomorrow we will go to Dr Nguyen for a appointment and a shot and then we will go to Rosewood.  Today we put a down deposit on one of two rooms and we want Dad to pick which room he likes the best.  He seems to be accepting the fact that there are changes that are going to have to be made. 

Wednesday we will a opthmalogist and Dr Aziz, the lung doctor.  Dad is concerned about his vision and has been having to use the Albuterol more the past 5 days. 

Love to all,

Bill
