COMMENTS: I took care of Kemper & Hillary when I arrived and started chores before getting Dr. Vesper up. He ate breakfast and took his morning meds. After breakfast, I gave him a shave and a shower and helped him get dressed. He had a glucerna and a protein bar before we left for his appointment with Dr. Forman. Dr. Forman thought he looked much better than he did the last time he saw him. He made no changes in his medication and agreed with the last med change by Dr. Wilson on 7/26 to decrease Diltiazem from 180mg to 120mg.  Dr. Forman ordered an echo to be done before he sees him again in February.  After his appointment with Dr. Forman, I treated him to dinner at Carrabba’s. We had a delicious meal and a very flirty waitress that couldn’t do enough for him. I think he really enjoyed just being out of the house. Kemper was very happy to see us since his dinner was a couple of hours late. He went to the bathroom as soon as we got home and I helped him change into his pajamas. He watched TV until bedtime. I set the table for breakfast and prepared morning meds. He took his p.m. meds and I helped him get ready for bed.
