The other side of Sunday

Jan survived two full days of Fede's cooking and the less structured environment of home (too less structured for Jan's liking). Between failed stuffed zuccini canoes, meals without a tight schedule and my preference for strong tea, Jan was a real trooper and graciously declined any comment to the questions: Did you like the food and the service?

My utmost respect for caregivers of any kind. This weekend was a bit of relaxation for Jan and the visitors but for me it was a real test of endurance and patience.

Jan continues to increase her vocabulary and the time of the conversations has increased from a few minutes to about an hour in the mornings. Afterwards, her energy level drops dramatically. She is more aware and also more balanced when walking. Tremendous advances considering that 44 days ago she was on the edge of death.

Thank you for the support in big and small things. Blessings in return,

-Fede
