Short entry today. I worked day and night as did everyone else but dad today. Dad began and spent the day with mom. He said she was great and in a great mood. He said she ate an entire banana (not best choice given her recent bowel problems but let's hope for the best) and drank an entire cup of juice during speech. Mom also practiced enunciating certain sounds during speech too. Mom had OT (occupational therapy) and did well also. Mom pulled a shirt over her head twice in an attempt to dress herself (as dad reports). In PT (physical therapy), dad said mom stood at the parallel bars again and did her leg lifts and curls with weights too. Mom's roommate was quiet today. Mom was tired from all the therapies.
Dad left at 7 p.m. when Anthony, Con and Sammy arrived. He told them that mom had fallen asleep at 5:30 and hadn't woken since then. It would be nice to hope that mom gets a nice 12 hour sleep tonight given all the lost sleep lately... Anthony and Con and Sam sat with mom until 8:05 and said she slept soundly the entire time, so they left. I pray she sleeps through the night.
