different feelings...

....just returned home with Daphne and both her and me have different feelings. Panormitis has changed, over the last two days he is loosing contact very fast. It costs us more and more effort to get a word or a smile out of him. We were given another wheelchair today, as he does not keep his head and body straight, it hangs over to the left side. His left arm is completely paralyzed and hardly any power in his right arm/hand. He gets easily tired and sleeps more and more. His appetite is also less and I seem to notice that it costs him a bit of a problem to swallow, or at least it takes him a much longer time to eat. He is more apathetic then before and has this staring look most of the day. Where he still was able to caress us a few days ago, this is not here these days. He actually fell asleep in the "lift machine" while putting him in bed after lunch.



We are all emotionally tired, I should go to sleep before I start cooking, but the weather is nice and the dog needs to walk. So we will wait for Sophia to come home from school any moment and walk all together, this might make us feel better then staying in bed.

We received a nice  card today with flowers and we do not recall who these  people are (forgive me) their name is Hedley. If you read this could you let me know who you are??


It is now 15.00 o'clock and in 3 hours we will be with him again, let's hope it will be a bit better.......

  1. Ha Hetty. Sterkte met alles. Lees regelmatig dit blog en leef met jullie mee. En vanzelfsprekend ook Panormitis. Het blijft moeilijk om een mens die je liefhebt voor je ogen te zien verdwijnen. Maar iemand is pas echt verdwenen als hij er voor jou en jullie er niet meer is.

    Lieve groet,
    Hans
