We've had an up and down week. Bill's done well in rehab and on the treadmill, although his leg still bothers him. It bothered him at the house one day and, surprisingly it's not his left leg, but his right one. That puzzles me since the stroke affected his left side. But, he sees the physical therapist Monday so maybe she can figure something out.

He's been a little short tempered a couple of days and it's due to him not drinking enough again. So, I'm forcing liquids in and he's been better.

He finally showed some interest in his computer game this week although he's forgotten most of it and of course he doesn't have the book for it. But, at least he was showing some interest in something other than the TV.

Today was cleaning day and we (I) started to weed things out. My Goodness, we've accumulated a lot of stuff in the last year! Bill was able to help by gathering the trash in the bathroom and breaking down soda boxes. Doesn't sound like much, but for someone who has trouble using hands, it was a big accomplishment.

That's our week in a nutshell. We're going to watch at least part of the Cubs game tonight. Again, they're on the west coast and play late. Enjoy the rest of your week-end!
