Lois is continuing to reduce her Dilanton level which seems to be allowing her to be more active. She continues to take the Keppra and has had no side effects from it. On Lois’ request we have hired a private aide to be with Lois exclusively during the day. Lynn has worked with Lois for several months at Weinberg and has developed a good relationship with Lois. She will be with Lois for 8 hrs a day for a few weeks or until Lois feels that she does not need the assistance. Lynn will help her with personal grooming, meals and any other daily activity where Lois might need a little assistance. Lynn will keep me posted on how Lois is doing and any needs that Lois might have including keeping track of Lois’ hectic schedule for therapies and doctor appointments. Lois is going to get some new curtains in her room tomorrow. She wanted beige colored curtains to match the walls and carpet. We bought her a bright red valance—let’s hope she likes it.
