Who Knew?
Hearing yells from all around the building tonight. To not allow the dementia based shouts to overwhelm is difficult. My mind will keep from letting it depress by having me read and watch DVDs tonight, and every night so far.
When I admit I want somebody to sweep into my life and desire nothing more than to protect and care for me, I'm admitting something I feel shameful about.
Suffering from myoclonus this evening to an uncomfortable extent. My thumb in particular is twitching over and over. I've asked for an Ativan to help but there's a step missing so the delay grows longer.
Two nursing students have taken me under their wings in particular. They're both young and attractive and very sweet. One interviewed me for her class this evening and the other has taken to being the one to bring my food tray in and seeing what he can locate for me and he kept checking in during her interview.
One of the Ethiopian RNs brought me injera and veggies from her church tonight so my inability to eat got put to the side as I made a dent in the yummy surprise. Luckily she knew to not bring me too much so there wasn't much wasted.
And today I did so much work with PT that I asked for and received an extra steroid dose to help my body cope with the stress.
