Journal entry by Carl Kettunen —
Dad has been refusing his meds lately even if it's explained to him that some of them are intended to help prevent further strokes.
At this point it seems like he's just tired of dealing with the meds. Due to all the struggles this has caused, his meds will be just as needed/requested going forward.
Other than that his condition has not really changed much and he is still eating all his food daily.
He did have another minor fall the other day when we think he tried to get up to use the bathroom in the night. Thankfully he has a crashpad next to his bed and there were no issues when he was checked by a nurse.
Thanks for all your prayers and support!
