Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday - October 16th, 17th and 18th

Hello again and I'm trying to catch up on my updates again...

Tori's night trend of needing some company in room seems to be popular now. She will moan loudly to call you in and then wants you to stay by her bedside for some TV watching. It is not bad once a night but getting called in several times makes for a long, sleepless night...

Maria and Whitney arrived home from Boston on Monday evening and they brought Guy back with them!! :-) Guy is spending a few days at our house and is working from the Novell office in Provo during his stay.

Tori's upper extremities are getting tighter and tighter unfortunately and she is very ready for her next round of botox shots this Friday at the PCMC in SLC. Her arms, wrists, shoulders and upper back are extremely tense and numerous doses of zanaflex are needed throughout the day to help ease this. At times you need two hands to pull away her arm from her chest and she even starts to rise from the bed during other times.

Outside of the tone issues, Tori has been is her normal mood patterns with some agitation setting in during the late afternoon and early evening hours. She is still eating though and had about 20 bites of cookie dough ice cream the other night and some squash tonight.

We should have some therapy visits to finish off the week and again, Friday will be spent mostly in SLC at the PCMC.

Thank you for all of the love and support,

-Tim
