"You are such a Boy Scout!"
Musical Rooms again and now Wings. Melissa is now in Wing 4B RM 7, Bed B with the view.
Please comply to these rules if you happen to get an audience with “M”.
ABSOLUTELY no removal of seat beat while in the wheel chair. Melissa has fallen twice and once she hit her head. She cannot stand right now with out balance assistance. Do not listen to the pleas of Melissa about taking the belt off.
DO NOT take her out of her chair and put her in bed or take her to the her bathroom. Once again she is a fall risk and you could hurt yourself. Call the aides and be patient, they will come. She has fallen once trying to get out of bed on her own and is on a 24 hour watch.
NO FLOWERS. Give your money to the Spring Lake Borough Shade Tree Committee. This will make Melissa very happy, she loves trees, “they are the answer.”
IF YOU make a surprise visit, let me know. It will give me a day to focus on my other patient and our life maintenance things. Maybe I can sneak in a bike ride.
Melissa is still not very sociable right now and sleeps much. She is getting better but very much on a plateau right now. She needs to have patience and soon she will be home: mobile, eating and resting in her bed.
* pray and send positive thoughts about patience in the patient. Also to move forward off the plateau to ascend and meet goals—this is not going to be a “oh whoa is me party”.
**WE thank everyone for their support—this journey is not over so enjoy the ride....
Keep checking in, this will be sporadic; maybe a weekly review unless there is something to report
