Sachin was in his room getting dressed when I arrived. I heated up his tea and made his egg for breakfast while Saj gave Sach his meds. I sat with Sach while he ate and had his tea. Mum then got home from work so we helped with preparing dinner - and also prepared tea. We ate together and I then prompted Sach to toilet - he was very hesitant to go and did not respond to my hand signals. It took about a minute of prompting and he eventually went to toilet - small output. I then assisted him with cleaning teeth and we made teas together and headed to do some puzzle. Sachins heart rate was in the 90’s and 100’s for all of puzzle time - and even though he was finding pieces relatively quickly - he was taking a long time to place them into the puzzle. Once his bpm hasn’t settled by 1900, we finished early and went to sit on the couch. He almost immediately settled and his heart rate went into the 70s. While I was making sleep tea at 2000 for Sach, he headed to the laundry to fold some of the clothes in there. Sach went to the toilet approx. 2045 - medium output - and we relaxed on the couch for the rest of the evening - heart rate in the 70’s.
