Day 241 – Grayson’s Journey

Dear family and friends

It's Wednesday – Order Dinner In Night! It was an Italian night, and Grayson ordered fettuccini with chicken when he arrived back from the clinic. That certainly lightened the workload this evening!

Grayson had a snack and took his 30 minute rest period as soon as he got back to the apartment. When the rest period was over, Grayson checked his picture check-list, and saw that his tasks were to take out the trash, pick up the mail, and to do laundry. He accomplished all of those things and his therapeutic home program (THP) before dinner arrived.

He ate all of his dinner (a good thing – he is now down 65 pounds from his pre-incident weight) and only required one verbal cue to clean his place after dinner. He spent the small remainder of the evening reading and listening to his audio books.

Just before he went to bed, he had an incident of "behavior". This was a huge disappointment to us, as he had so many incident-free days in a row. We trust that this is healing disguised as a challenge!

Pax!
