Nighttime Thoughts

I called to check on Mike after 10 last night and the RN said he was sleeping. He had been agitated at supper, so she gave him more Tylenol and that seemed to help. I was thankful to know he was resting peacefully.

As I laid in bed last night, reviewing the day, I realized that the way Mike scanned the room and focused on the bulletin board was different. He actually seemed to be taking in his surroundings where lots of times he seems totally oblivious to what is around him. That's a good sign. He stopped and focused on photos of family and friends. People who were familiar in a room that is totally unfamiliar. Hope - it's never far away, even when the noisier clamor and chaos of the day hides it. In the quieter moments of reflection, I see it sitting right where I left it.

Today Mike is scheduled to get a haircut at the facility. Please pray this goes well. I'm planning to be there to help however I can.

Thank you for your prayers and love for us.
