A Little Less Than Normal
Movement for 8/22/08:
- At Mom's 12-hour-sleep mark today, 1330, she asked for "another hour". She hasn't done that in a long, long time. Despite this, she was up at 1400 on her own. She wasn't particularly energetic, even asked "why" she had to get up. I responded that she had the answer to that question, since she awoke on her own. Although we haven't used the wheelchair, she's been slow and stiff today, and has looked tired. I have no idea how this evening will go. She hasn't moved any less than usual, but not any more, either.
- No wheeling this evening, although she mentioned that she was "having trouble getting around." From my perspective, she wasn't having any more trouble than usual, but she was feeling it more, tonight, I think. No changes in routine, though, although she clearly wasn't into "straightening up" much as she moved, so, after the second reminder with no response, I stopped reminding her.
