Birthday Party at Cascade. . video too



Enjoying the party
 Made it to see Kay on the shuttle in pretty good time.  I met with Iris the person responsible for moving people around.  I figured it might as well go ahead although their excuse that she cant find her room or bed does not make a lot of sense.  

I sat down on her bed and she did not wake as she usually does at the least movement of the bed.  After a couple minutes as I looked at her she finally opened her eyes and when she saw me she smiled as she always does.  She eagerly met me with a kiss and hugged me.  Of course  I had the truffle ready and she eagerly took the wrapper off and ate it.  In fact she ate two and one graham cracker.   One serving is considered 3 truffles.  
Because there was no activities going on in the Activity room  I just stayed with her in her room on the bed and  watched the TV or just enjoyed the feel of her resting her head on my breast feeling close.  I believe that just being close to me keeps me and by extension the family in her mind which doesn't seem to have changed much recently. @ 3 20 the shuttle came and I went home fairly quickly compared to other times.   

They want to  move Kay to the basement because she can not find her room at times.  But half the people there can not find their room.  That is a big problem.  I remember the first time Tom visited her and she was exhausted wandering the hall looking for her room.  But many many on that floor have the exact problem.   So she is not unique.  One day I  heard two people at once having an argument because they were in the wrong bed.  It is a constant problem to keep the people in their own bed  and room.  When I am with Kay in her room I can not see the entrance door to the room but I can hear it being opened.  At times there is a constant opening and shutting of the door by people who do not know where they are. Many times they wander in then wander out of Kay's bedroom. 

 Here is a video of us at the party.  I didn't want to take pictures of others as there are privacy problems.  The old folks got up ad was dancing to the music and having a good time.
