http://caringfortom.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Caring For Tom ❤. Because God is with us, we need not fear what is ahead of us. Sunday, July 18, 2010. There are no two alike so I had to figure out what works with Tom. and accept what is and let go of what was. it's been the biggest challenge of my life. I have been challenged by outsiders who see nothing wrong. he seems normal to them. SO THEY. encourage him to do the very things that I convinced him I LOVE doing . so he need not worry about it but just go enjoy doing what he "feels like" doing. I don...

Caring For Tom ❤. Because God is with us, we need not fear what is ahead of us. Sunday, January 30, 2011. It started out .the first part of January. Tom begin to talk in his sleep. It was kinda cute. he' d laugh and giggle. they were happy dreams. Well eventually the dreams became more a part of reality to him as he started hand movements, which in turn escalated to sleep walking. Nope it didn't stop there. We have Tom back now. not quite the same but better than I had expected. So life goes on. not ...

Caring For Tom ❤. Because God is with us, we need not fear what is ahead of us. Thursday, June 16, 2011. Reality Of This Disease Hit's Hard. All winter Tom sat at the table staring out the window at the GARAGE TO BE. He wondered every day if it would really happen. ( I have read that negative thoughts "it's not going to happen. they won't show up. it won't be ready. why does everything happen to me. etc ARE par for the coarse of this disease.). As the project got off the ground Teddy and others are seein...

Caring For Tom ❤: Field Trip
http://caringfortom.blogspot.com/2011/09/field-trip.html
Caring For Tom ❤. Because God is with us, we need not fear what is ahead of us. Monday, September 5, 2011. Unfortunately Tom's symptoms are a result of the damage the disease is doing to his brain. I understand the confusion some people have over the fact Tom is convincing in his stories and goes out of his way to prove there is nothing wrong with his memory as he and everyone else feel there can't be anything wrong because he "can remember".and his stories ARE convincing. ALL dementias take you down the...

Caring For Tom ❤. Because God is with us, we need not fear what is ahead of us. Monday, October 4, 2010. We have had some pretty hard frosts lately. as a result the leaves are raining off the trees as the wind blows them around on the ground. with the sun shinning and the warm temps it couldn't be a more beautiful and peaceful atmosphere. Sunday, October 3, 2010. Up and Down and Around We Go. Then Gods says. yes you can! I say I don't want to. God says you have to. I chose YOU because this is the...Yeste...

Caring For Tom ❤. Because God is with us, we need not fear what is ahead of us. Tuesday, October 11, 2011. Tom's stress test came out fine. no sign of every having a heart attack, blood flow was normal . no blockage or anything. We cancelled the sleep apnea test as Tom has been loosing weight and so he has been breathing better at night. Tom seems so happy inside that he radiates happiness as he has declared himself fit as a fiddle and cured of his dementia. BUT he is happy inside and that's all that cou...

Well the party was over as the alien (ALZ) that invades my husband's mind and calls his body home returned. with a vengeance. He was MEAN and ORNERY. I played Merry-Go-Round with people telling me. "I'm sorry. he's booked for a year". we can put you on his cancellation list but it's long and that can take a year. THIS IS AN EMERGENCY! All went w...

Caring For Tom ❤. Because God is with us, we need not fear what is ahead of us. Sunday, September 18, 2011. Follow Up Dr. Visit. Tom had a follow up visit with his own Dr. from his Hospital visit. I had the hospital fax the records from that stay to Tom's Dr. and because I have to watch what I say I sent a report to his Dr. ahead of his visit. It really helps to do this as the Dr. can cut through the bull and I don't get my head bit off. OKAY. I DID! Get my head bit off. There are times in life when ever...

Caring For Tom ❤. Because God is with us, we need not fear what is ahead of us. Sunday, August 14, 2011. Guess I missed July's Update. Probably because there isn't much change. I totally understand the people who love Tom don't like to see him in a calm submissive state because it is so out of character from who he was. BUT what they do NOT get is that he IS NOT who he was. AT ALL. Not even kind-a. Anyway. here is a little story that took place last evening. B Have you ever tried to stop a train? Reason ...
