Things move fast

Well' Fred entered the nursing home a day earlier than I anticipated. He arrived last evening about seven. after getting lost for about a half hour in route. I not sure if he knows where he is and I know he don't know the time and date. This is not what you picture for your parents but it is a reality that you have to face. Medilodge, the facility he is at seems to be very nice. and has a great nurse to resident rating. For Fred it is not a life anymore it seems to be an existence. The funny part is he remembers everybody but finds is almost impossible to carry on a conversation. I could see a deterioration in his condition from last Thursday compared to yesterday. Speech was a little slurred. awareness was diminished. As I look around at the nursing home and see the exsisting residents I pray for Gods speed for Fred. May the Lord bless him and keep him and give him peace.
