Good Therapy Reports

This week I received a report from Sam's various therapists and overall it was excellent! Apparently she is doing extremely well in cognitive and speech classes. Physical therapy lags behind just a little bit and then occupational therapy. This is the week that Sam's medications changed, and so I was surprised to receive such a positive report, since my interactions with her in the evenings have been mixed. I've experienced Sam being very confused, and reporting bizarre made-up stories that are rather disturbing. However, I have also seen some good changes, so with the positive reports, I will assume Sam is in transition. Last evening in fact was the first night Sam was doing extremely well. She is eating much better and is enjoying her days. She told the aid who was working with her last evening that I was a very good cook. That used to be the case when I actually cooked, which was when Sam was well. Sam also seems to want to see more people, and have visitors, so I might try and plan another gathering at home. Also, Sam is starting to use here feet to move herself about the facility n the wheelchair. This is a good sign, although she can't remember which room she is in, she knows the general direction quite well. I will be spending the weekend with Sam at Park Terrace, but hope to bring her home again next week.
