Guest guest Posted July 9, 2007 Report Share Posted July 9, 2007 HI Diane, I just recently read a book about a woman who needed 24 hour care but didnt' have a lot of family to help. Friends and volunteers came in to help her. What they did was keep a log book where everyone wrote down what they did/any changes so that the person who came on next would be up to speed. How about if you kept a book with you at all times and when you are eating you could note the date, the time and a simple entry like " I am eating dinner now " so that if you are unsure or confused later as to whether you ate or not you can refer to your log? Courage Re: Frustration and Confusion to Norma Hi Norma, I don't know anyone that could live with me. Will tell my dr what is happening. Things keep changing everytime I see her. I think Ot was suppose to talk to her about how I was doing but never heard back from ot so I don't know. really don't know what is going happen with me.
