Rick came and spent time with me. First he stopped to see Harlan, I joined him then Sarah stopped. Harlan seemed to know both Rick and Sarah, he had some discomfort while we were there and Sarah and I rubbed his arm and it calmed him. His pain meds have been increased from every 4 hours to every 2 hours and that has helped him rest more comfortably.
After our time with Harlan we went for lunch and I completed other shopping I had to do and Rick and I headed for Rockville and some visiting, he left for home and I headed back to the VA. Denese was already with Harlan when I got there. Denese said Harlan seemed to know her. When I talked to him he opened his eyes to acknowledge me also. We stayed with him until after 6:00. The increase in his pain meds have helped but also that make him sleepy. When he speaks it is hard to understand him as it's more of a mumble then words.
Becky will be coming up tomorrow to spend time with us, I look forward to seeing her.......Fran
