Yes I remind Mac, this is Christmas Eve...should we go to Church? .well do you want to? he replies, not if you don't want to go, I say. Then in the discussion I remember that A Christmas Carol with Alister Sim that old movie is on, we have always watched it in the past. And so that solved the problem of if we should go or not, it was so neat to hear Mac remember the name of Bob Cratchit, the poor clerk in Scrooge's office...and of course Tiny Tim..Must admit he slept through some of the movie, but for the most part enjoyed it, along with shortbread cookies and sherry...
Yesterday and today have been really good days, perhaps we've reached another plateau, although Satuday he woke up saying "Are we still together, what am I doing' i'm thinking we are not together , are we togther , of course we are I answer, oh good ooh good, I think you were dreaming i said...of course we're together he said. later in the day he was entirely confused and kept saying so, and the day was kind of slipping down to real depression for him, and then lucky for us Valerie Brianna Lorne and BABY FINLEY...came for dinner and saved the day.
So it's been uphill since then with singing of carols with the radio..Mac drying dishes after all the cooking i've been doing, we're preparing for a great feast at Glenna's tomorrow; one crabby walk yesterday and another today..he can't stand the cold but once we're home it's super and perhaps it's the walks that have him back on keel, what ever that means. Of course he does not know just who and where he is at all times, but he has trust in me as caregiver and wife?? and so is relaxed and content... Also our sweet neighbour Susanna came for tea and told him her sister thinks he's handsome, "and so i am" he told me later grinning from ear to ear.
So how contented is that... now he is off to sleep, I'll go and join him so g'nite...
MERRY CHRISTMAS AND GOD BLESS US EVERYONE.
