December 28, 2019 - Bob woke up around 6:30am in a full panic attack. He said get me a pill. He said he didn't know what day it was or what he did yesterday. I got him a pill and some water told him to go sit in the family room. I got him some coffee and turned on the tv for him. He calmed down a little. An hour later he said he felt a little better. He ate some breakfast and he said the pill is working just feels a little shaky. He will rest today and nothing else to do, so I think he will be ok.
2019 had been a pretty good year. Bob's disease is progressing slowly so we are thankful. We seem to have to adjust how we do things often. Like now when he leaves on his own, which is rare, he will always have to have a note and the last thing on the note will always be come home.
I have more patience with Bob but some days can be a challenge when you get asked the same question 5 times. I always try and tell him this is not his fault, it is the disease but it is hard on him too. I am so lucky and blessed that Bob's personality has not been altered. He trusts me and does not fight me when I tell him things. I am so grateful that he is still the same Bob, with just a bad memory. Still very thankful to God that we still have a pretty normal life or a new normal life. I am also so very thankful for our loving family. Our kids and grandkids are wonderful and don't know were we would be without them. We are blessed.
