Wednesday, November 8 - Daily Activity Record & Countdown

Daily Activity Plan for Monday November 6, 2006
In trying to record most of my daily activities, I was trying to do a number of things.
The first thing was to be organized. I decided to use my Palm Organizer software to record most of the events of the day. With medications flying back and forth, appointments here and there and things to eat on a regular basis, I had to create a way of keeping track, of most of the activities from daily living... from what you do and take first thing in the morning, to what you do and take just before bedtime.

Hour By Hour

There is a lot of information on the DAP since it is organized by the hour. I have a lot of masters here, or rather doctors (dentists, dieticians, radiation oncologists...) who suggest that I do certain things at certain times of the day. I also have to be able to communicate this information to them and to Jennifer. (I also need it, as I would hate to miss a Raptors televised game.) Go! Raps! Go!

A Good Way to Communicate
As I am able to speak in a very limited way, at this point in time, the Daily Activity Record is at least something that I can share with them. It is fairly detailed and if they are trying to figure out something then this information should help them. I also want them to know that I have a role to play in my recovery and am willing (for the most part to make the required changes.) In the end I also have a hard copy record of my day.

Countdown

A Countdown Begins

My eldest created this countdown to indicate how many more days of RT, I was projected to need.

So it looks like 8 days and counting at this point in time...
