Whenever I am met with a "will you take me to Lowe's" request the minute I walk in the door, I should know by now to focus on what exactly is being said and why the request is being made. Another milestone in this journey is quickly approaching apparently. At Lowe's we visited the bathroom section as Sam is needing assistance getting in and out of the bathtub. During the day he often takes warm baths to increase his body temperature and he is experiencing more and more difficulty in being able to get out of the bathtub. Hence, the trip to Lowe's. As we were walking down the hall he also informed me that yesterday he walked to the post office and had shortness of breath. The post office is only a few blocks away.
All in all, though, the man is amazing because he really does not complain, just chooses when (and where) to inform me of certain details which might prove to be important in the days to come.
It seems like Sam is slowly starting to wrap his mind around where he is currently in his journey. His mood has improved greatly, thus, so has mine.
Luckily, the Oregon Ducks are doing amazing things on the field which boosts his spirits incredibly. Too bad my Broncos are not doing the same, which does boost his spirits, just so you know. What a guy.
