Friday, May 13

I made a pot roast last night and Cowboy ate all his vegetables and about half his meat.  Didn't touch the bread.  Still, much better.

This morning  he ate all his breakfast!  Marsha came at 10.  I love having her to help.  She is a sweetheart.  I went to a nearby church and played a gig with the Dulcimer Club for a dementia day care group.  Ironic, isn't it.  I leave my hubby with dementia with a caregiver and go entertain others with dementia.  I do enjoy it and it was good to see some of my friends. 

Cowboy has a couple of pressure sores and that worries me.  Went to the drugstore and got a spray that is specifically for that.  If he is not better by Monday will call the Doc.  Since we were out I decided to take him to lunch.  We went for Mexican food and he ate really well.  Then tonight he didn't want to eat at all.  Still, I think we are seeing some improvement.

In one of my early posts I mentioned that he wanted scented candles lit all the time.  I think it may have to do with his loss of smell.  I just had this "lightbulb" moment and am thinking that is it.  About a year ago he insisted we put in a water filter because he said the water tasted bad.  It didn't seem that way to me but he insisted.  I suspect it is all connected to his brain playing tricks.  Here I am playing doctor again.
