Dear family and friends
Grayson had another good day today. After arriving back at his apartment after clinic, he did his chores (today is inventory and shopping list day), watched his 1 hour (max) of TV, then made his dinner. He also had an opportunity to play checkers for a while with his residential assistant (RA).
After dinner and checkers, he took the opportunity to go on an outing to a frozen yogurt shop. Outings are also therapy. Getting out into the community is important. Managing scarce resources is also an important lesson. All of the patients here get an allowance of $24 per week for outings, and tonight's outing cost $7. Thursday is the first day of the outing week, so Grayson has $17 of outing money remaining for the rest of the week.
Tonight the report is again short. Grayson got home after 9:00, and immediately got ready for bed. I didn't get a report from the clinic, but I'm wondering how he is doing on less than 10 hours sleep per night. Sounds weird, but that is what he has been getting!
Tomorrow we're off to see him for the weekend!
Pax!

Sounds like he's got deep pockets.... you guys could have a lot of fun with that remaining $17.... :)
ReplyDeleteHello from Wichita:
ReplyDeleteJust got a chance to check in and check on you all. Grayson is in my prayers regularly, as are you. I loved reading your reports for the passed several days...they are always so interesting.
We are busy everyday being grandparents...and it is a blast.
In Him,
Doug
