Howard update 7/24

Morning update:

Howard got up around 11:15 this morning.   He is in good spirits, had changed his shirt, and got himself a cup of coffee and a banana.   At the moment he is sitting out in the backyard with Buster.  Katie and I were out when he got up, but arrived when he was sitting at the kitchen table with his coffee and banana.

I am encouraged as he is conversing normally again.  We had a few days where he didn't say much, and was just "yes" or "no".   I am sure this has been hard for him to process all that is going on with him. 

We were unable to get him a shower or sponge bath yesterday.   That is one of my goals for today (yes, I live the exciting life!).

I will also be researching Kaiser home care today to see what that offers.

Good luck with Kaiser. That will be a great help, for him and for you! Thanks for posting!
