Chapter 32 - A Day To Forget

Saturday began badly around 2am when she came to bed. She was stressed, restless. I don't know how well she slept but by 6am she took her first meds for the day, half an hour earlier than the alarm, which I turned off so as not to wake her if sleep came. She became very thirsty. Said she had been very hot during the night, although the heating was off. She asked me to refill her water bottle. I did so, then a second time; she drank at least 2 litres of water. Then slept. I went to my dungeon. She rose for the loo at 8, 9 and 10. Finally at 11:30am she rose, shaking badly but stiff & rigid at the same time. Lunch meds at 12pm. A shower was delayed until late in the afternoon when she could trust her balance. Incapable all day of any activity other than watching movies on DVD. The rigidity & shaking lasted all afternoon until around 8:15pm "all came good". She commented "This has been a most dreadful day. And I have felt hot all day." So was this PD or perhaps an infection? Midnight meds, sleep about 1am and another day begins somewhere sometime.

This morning we woke at 8am, she not having taken her early morning meds because I had forgotten to switch the alarm on again. Toilet, meds, return to bed. She sleeps soundly. There will be no church for us this Sunday morning.
