Seeing some improvement - After a year!!!!
George is making some improvements and it has been over a year so the deal about not being able to make improvements past the first year, I just don't believe it. His improvements are in his ability to speak. He still has aphasia but he told me he thinks he is starting to understand things better. He is initiating conversations. He is starting to help me in the kitchen some too. I feel really blessed with the improvements he is making. It is amazing how wonderful the small things are now aren't they? I bought him a lift recliner, much against his wishes and now I can't get him out of it ha ha. It was the best purchase I have made. Except now I really need to encourage exercise more. But it has helped my back tremendously getting him in and out of the chair. We're also practicing sit to stands more and he is standing longer than before. I still am pondering the issue of moving closer to my daughter and the grandkids but I will have to wait until spring because George will be 65 then and can go on medicare so if I retire I won't have to pay full price for two insurances, jsut mine and a supplement for him.
