Update on Med Change & Mom

Being off Seroquel lasted one week.  The doctor reduced her Aricept...for 30 days & then she will be off....and took her off Seroquel.  She was so anxious, wanting to go home (let's go now) and frantically trying to wheel her chair.  That's the week that she had the arm tear.....they said she bit herself (ummmm, hmmmm).  She's back on Seroquel.  It's hard to see her sleeping all of the time, but even harder to see her so anxious.

Last night when I went there, she smiled at me.  She wanted to go lie down, so I took her outside to get some fresh air.  It was close to 90 degrees.  The second we got through the door she said, "It's nice out. Let's go back inside."  When I started pushing her around the path she said, "Do you want me to push you?" She remembers that when she lived at Our House, I would push her in her transport chair outside (she was still walking at the time) and she'd ask me if I wanted her to push me. Sure....I'd get in the chair and let her push me.....It was hilarious! Before I left last night....she said, "You're a sweetie."  So it was different last night.  She wanted to wheel herself, but just to find her room to lie down.
