As usual steps backward instead of forward today. Bill's right foot has not been behaving itself at all today. He just about fell in the bedroom this morning and again in the kitchen. Luckily I was standing behind him and caught him as he found the fridge.

He didn't do much in rehab today. They had a class on blood pressure and did very little exercise but he did have Debbie look at his leg again and she was going to talk to Tina. We also saw Tina and she didn't adjust his pump speed because I told her that the numbers were all over the place again this morning.

He did much better at home this afternoon, but was told to use his walker or make sure someone was walking with him. We went out to eat again this evening and he did fine going into the restaurant but his leg really went crazy as we were leaving and he just about fell twice more even using the walker. Once I was able to grab his arm to steady him and the other time he fell backwards into me. I've learned to just stiffen up so that I don't also fall. This is really getting worrisome to both of us.

Other than this we've had a good visit with Don and Shirley. Went to eat on the beach last night. Didn't see anything of the beach of ocean but the restaurant is really nice. We don't have any plans at all for the week-end
other than just getting better. We'll know more Monday after therapy and talking to Tina again.

Have a good week-end!
