Confusion

I really appreciate those of you who have been checking the blog regularly. I hope everyone is finding it helpful and informative. This is going to be another short entry. It really has nothing to do with how busy I am. There simply is nothing new to share. Unless we experience obvious change, I will probably just give weekly updates on the subtle changes we are observing.

Alma woke up extremely disoriented this morning. She stated that she had no idea what she was doing here. It’s as if she assumed she went to bed at her house and assumed she would awaken there too. It reminds me of when I was a small child and visiting my grandparents. One minute I would be lying on the floor with my cousins watching the Sunday Night Walt Disney Movie of the week starring some child star turned “Real Housewife”, and the next minute I would be waking up in my bed. Of course, it is much worse for Alma as she is an adult who perceives herself to be of sound mind. I also wanted to note that last week there were a few days when she could not remember any of our names. This is nothing new. We just haven’t seen these behaviors demonstrated so clearly in quite some time. Nonetheless, her mood remains stable and she appears to simply accept whatever we tell her. This is another reason that it concerns us to consider the possibility of her living in an environment where that tendency could be abused. She is so incredibly compliant which makes our life easier but makes her a perfect target.
