June 29 – 1048
Joyce had a good day. We went to Chapel Hill for Joyce’s throat doctor appointment. After the swallow study he said that she has not shown any improvement but she has not degraded either. So he said we can decide what frequency we want to return and have Joyce checked again. He has suggested ice chips and sipping water after every meal and when she gets water to strengthen her muscles. Joyce did not nap she was awake all the way there and all the way back she just liked watching everything that was going on.

June 25 Day 1044
Joyce had a good weekend. Did all of exercises and I new weekend caregiver come. I thought having a retired lady that would work out better. But she couldn’t transfer Joyce so in between my errands I had to come back to the house every 4 hours to take Joyce to the bathroom so the search continues. Joyce was very alert yesterday she sat up in her chair all day watching TV she really enjoyed watching Americas funniest home videos she was laughing so hard. Her night was good she slept well through the night with no issues.

June 22 – Day 1041
Joyce had a good day. she did her exercises today. the morning caregivers is doing fine but the afternoon I am not sure of. I have to set up a procedure for when the shift changes so everything is good before they walk out the door. One day she said she took Joyce to the bathroom but not even an hour later I checked her and her brief was wet. So I told the agency to get someone else because I will not tolerate it. She is very small so I don’t if she has trouble transferring Joyce or whatever the reason.

June 20 – Day 1039

Joyce had a good day. she did her exercises today. I trained the new caregivers and I think we might a good team the afternoon caregiver was kind of tiny and I was concerned about her lifting Joyce but she said she did okay struggled a little and I showed how to lift and she thinks that will help her tremendously. Joyce slept a lot during the day and slept well through the night with no issues.
