One example of this was the last time we went to see her neurologist, she asked me. "Mom did we live in a group home." My response was to explain to her that until 2000 we lived in an apartment above the group home that I ran. Car rides are great times to discuss things and we seem to be doing more and more of that.
We are still in pursuit of the correct daily dose but are very pleased with what we see so far. Her speech and response time is continuing to improve. We will always wonder how much pain she was in before started working with this medication.
We are beginning to research what activity level should we increase to also and what types of activities.
