August 10 - more resets...

 Oh dear...

What about that moment of clarity?

Can I get that back?!?!?

Rob wasn't doing great Sunday evening, but we forced him into the car and off to a pond at sunset while we fished a little.  He did enjoy the ducks - he said they are ducky - he ate his snack and shared it with the ducks - he was excited HS caught a fish.  But goodness...he was declining.  I would say he was only about 30% "there."  Friday night he would have been about 70-75% "there".

And then today...my goodness...I don't think he was even 10% "there."

Rob could not say anything to me today except his same phrases.

He has taken to asking me over and over every day if I took a nap.  I keep telling him, "No, I don't take naps" or "No, I was at work all day and just got home" or "when would I take a nap? I was at work."

But...

RESET

"So...you didn't take a nap today?"

NO!

RESET

"Did you take a nap today?"

"nope"

RESET

"So...you didn't get a nap today?"

AAAAGRRRRGGGHHHH!!!!

I am pretty sure he asked me this at least 25 times tonight.

I had also gotten off work early to take C out and sight in our rifles.

I told Rob what road we were driving up.

Why?

Why did I think that was a good idea?

"Are you going up Johnson?"

Yes

RESET

"So, are you going up Johnson?

That's what I told you.

RESET

"Are you going up Johnson?"

YES.

He must have asked me 15 times in 10 minutes.

Why did I tell him anything?

"I'm chilly"

RESET

"I'm a little chilly"

RESET

"I'm cold" (he is wearing 3 layers of fleece and carhart in the SUMMER)

RESET

"I'm a little chilly"

It's amazing how this disease works.

I mean...2 nights ago he was coherent.

Tonight he couldn't get out of a one-sided box.
