Angela tek win….
2 miles in the hills
Church for 1.5 hours
Clean out before we leave
On di road again
Someone invited us out for lunch – and Angela ain’t staying home
As a child we ( the community ) use to call her walk a leg… she doesn’t have the stamina anymore but she has the will to walk wid.
I realise my elder hyperactive: so being still for extended periods of time can be a problem.
So it’s about:
1. Encouraging soft activities: a 2 miles at morning uses a sufficient amount of her energy.
2. Routine: consistently in daily activity, meal time, exercise, social engagement, provides a structure around her movement for the most part. (this prevents wandering & it keeps her safe)
3. Keep her hydrated: This is a fight of answering a 100 questions of why she can only drink tea and water…
Caring for your own elder is not for the faint of heart… Angela have me going by di breath 
But when we walk together and she leading … she is included in life …. A lot of times we leave them and go on living because sooooo much things to do…
And deh get lonely and depressed but a lil walk stimulate their minds… and church… all things and experiences for dem to talk about
