Sleeping in Pruneville
Richard actually understood that I need to sleep and I'm not Wonderwoman. Of course, the conversation about the fact he was going to have to be admitted to a nursing home because I had reached the end of my physical endurance may have made a difference. JT and Teena got here around noon and I went...

A day on oxygen and in bed
It has not been a good day. The exhaustion and chest pain started early with Richard banging my arm on the bedrail trying to wake me up. He was hungry and wanted food right then. He later tried to say he was banging a rag doll on the rail to wake me up. That pig didn't fly. By the time I had fixed...

Two Days Out By Myself
I've had to run errands the past two days and Teena stayed with Richard. I have found I don't really like going out because of the effort it takes to get dressed in appropriate clothes and make up and brushing my hair. Then I start sweating and have to sit in front of the fan. It is such a hassle....

Yesterday Was a Slap of Reality
After 4 days of trucking it up and down the stairs not only for me to go to the bathroom but also to empty Richard's potty chair, my body has rebelled most loudly. If Teena had not decided to come and help me even though Aid and Assist has cut her hours, I don't know what I would do except to stay...

And I Helped
Hoooorrrraaaay! We have an upstairs toilet again. I'm exhausted from going up and down the steep stairs to the downstairs bathroom. I do well to get up and down once or twice a day. There have been times when I went downstairs and couldn't get back upstairs for hours. Anyway, Richard feels like he...

RUN AWAY, RUN AWAY, AND HIDE

How Lucky I am
I cannot tell you all enough how much of an Angel Teena is and JT is such a professional. He always talks with Richard about all our projects that have to be done on a man to man level. It makes such a difference for Richard to feel in control. Teena and JT are such a nice couple and really treat...
