Status Report

Well it’s been a while since I have posted, I guess we got in a rut, things were going pretty smoothly, buying the healthiest breakfast bars that we can buy at Sam’s Club, dad is heading 5-6 of them a day, so it doesn’t make sense not to buy the largest boxes we can find, despite the fact that dad says we can’t possibly eat them all. Even eating 5-6 breakfast bars each morning still hasn’t kept him from eating his breakfast that usually is a hash brown patty, two eggs over medium, and two small sausage patty. Occasionally we mix things up by serving corn beef hash or scrambled eggs and ham.

He is doing well on his new medication that requires him to drink 8-10 ounces of water with each dose.

Getting him to eat lunch, and dinner is getting easier, the day goes much better if we get him to have dinner else he get stubborn and insists on going to bed really early, sometimes as early as 5:30pm despite the fact that the sun is still out, sometimes he wakes up in a few hours and we get him to eat. If we get him to eat all three meals he manages to stay up to 10:00pm despite having a big day and was unable to take his normal cat naps.

We have also purchased him a couple of new flannel sheet sets for his bed, and a heavier comforter allows dad to sleep better, sometimes sleeping as late as 8am.
On our to do is to him a heavy winter coat to go with his fur lined hoodie and long sleeve shirts we have gotten him already.
