There is a terrific song from Godspell - Day By Day - which is going to be my theme song. That's my life, after all. As I posted, Saturday was very low. Then Sunday, he was pretty good. On Monday, he came crashing down again and yet again, I lost it. I try SO hard to keep it together and have started taking my Zoloft very early but on Monday, it sure didn't work. I'm trying to see what triggers his mood swings but just can't put my finger on it. Tuesday started out okay but then mid-morning he crashed. I quietly told him that I could not deal with crashes two days in a row as it's really getting to me. He calmed down and was good the rest of the day.
And here we are at Wednesday. I've got to take my car to the dealership but shouldn't be gone long. Our housekeeper, Josefina, will be here so he won't be alone and I'll try to get back within an hour.
So, I've asked Alexa to play Day By Day twice already and hopefully that will keep me steady.
Now off to get some fruit for Jay - watermelon today. He enjoys that so much.
A journey with my Husband and his issues with dementia and/or cognitive impairment. This disease is compounded by his recent diagnosis of metastatic cancer, for which he is being infused with Erbitux weekly for the rest of his life. After over three months of infusion, he was diagnosed with an uncommon condition - Hashimoto's Encephalopathy.
