Chapter 123 - Some Tears
A short note updating on her recent problems.
During Monday her shaking continued to disturb her. She went to bed at 10:30pm but an hour later her legs gave her so much trouble that got out of bed for her chair where she read a book until she was calmer an hour later.
Yesterday I woke her at 8am. She showered , dried and dressed herself with some difficulty but didn't need any help. I took her and her director's chair (for her comfort & her stability, plastic stackables are no good for her) to KYB at 10am. I sat in the truck reading for an hour, then returned for her. I waited outside the hall for another 40 minutes. It seems the study was rather difficult. I helped her out of her chair then as we stepped outside she burst into tears. Her tremors did not lessen after her 10am meds so she was trapped for 1 hour 40 minutes. Torture, in the midst of kindly but non-understanding ladies. At lunch at home she took 2 Panamax while cooling herself in front of a fan; hot & sweaty. She went to bed at 2pm; I woke her 2 hours later. Two friends had telephoned; she rang them back. Around 8pm we walked the village.
Last night tremors continued to bother her. She rose for the loo every 2 hours. I woke her at 8am and she tended to her shower and dressing without needing help. Her tremors may have lessened somewhat today.
Time to prepare an evening meal.
