It has been a few days since I had time to do an update and things have gotten better with Carl. He is really working on watching what he says and how he says it. He has not yelled at me or bit my head off for any reason in a couple of days now. He even helped me today with the next to last and last laundromats a little. When we got done with them, he made a proud comment that he is stronger now and able to do more now. I agreed with him and told him I was afraid to give him too much to do and push him too hard. I think it was 2 or 3 weeks ago that he tried helping and did not even last 10 minutes and he was worn out. Now he was actually able to help me with a little on one and even a little more on the last one. He even had the strength to take the garbage out which really surprised me. He is now working on making me something special to eat since I am tiered and worn out from working so much the last 3 days. I think his anger and frustration is due to him not being able to do much but now that he can tell he is able to do more, he is going to start feeling better about himself and not be so angry and frustrated. I just hope his strength and endurance keeps improving. My middle daughter has been sick most of the week and have taken her to the Doc twice already, she was really bad yesterday. Thinking it is some kind of cold but almost as sever as a flu. Over the counter meds are helping her feel better. Youngest has been having some medical issue with the inside of her mouth and took her to the Doc earlier this week also and thought was it was reaction to her med or meds. Did my research and found out it was not but might be due to her biting her inside of her cheeks. Time will tell and a trip to the Dentist hopefully some time this week. Not sure when I will have a day off again since I know I will definitely be working all next weekend again also but I am not complaining since we do need the money so badly. Will try to update again as soon as I get time again.
