WEATHER:
33 degrees, sunny day.
 
Mood:
Sachin appeared well rested, quiet and behaved.
He did bust out a few vocal noises every now and then but for the majority he was quiet. He appeared content with his puzzle and nightly routine.
 
NOTES:
Sachin was already in the programs room when I arrived, I encouraged him to use the toilet first up, large urine output then I assisted him brush his teeth.
We made cups of tea and went back to jigsaw puzzle.
Sachin appears to have stalled at the present time, I think it might be because he has flooded his work space with pieces and not enough room to work. Recently Sachin has taken to working line by line starting at the bottom and moving up to complete a puzzle.
Sachins BPM was fluctuating just like last night but stayed in the 80’s mainly, for the majority of the time he was a few units lower than last night.
Medication at 1830 hours, dispensed by his father and handed to Sachin by me.
Sachin struggled at times being satisfied he had put the piece in exactly the way he wanted, he would repeat the action of removing and placing the piece a few or a dozen times till he was satisfied or I would assist him to move on to the next.
Sachin and I finished in the programs room at 1930 hours, Sachin was encouraged to use the toilet again, he produced a medium amount of urine.
Sachin and I then went for a walk along Tabletop road, for the 26 minute walk at a slow pace Sachin did 2852 steps with a average bpm of 111, hence the slow pace.
When we returned home we made new cups of tea and settled down on the couch to watch a Indian movie from the 70’s.
Sachin stood up at approximately 2110 hours and insisted on a head massage from his nan, he was assisted down to sit and got a head massage before bed.
Shift ceased at 2130 hours.
