John slept a total of one hour all of last night. None today. He also needed exta meds twice during the night (which he usually does not need even if he is awake.) Today was really bad. He felt lousy all day. Had to give extra meds twice. We had friends from Kelowna, Clarence and Lucille Knapp in for dinner along with their son and daughter in law ( Dave and Delight who are new staff at Gateway) - and although John managed to sit at the table with us he was unable to eat anything (not even ice cream) or take part in the conversation.
The involuntary sucking action in his mouth is getting worse and cutting off his communication even more.
Please pray the mouth will settle down and he will be able to sleep tonight.
A big two thumbs down for today.
