Support Group over Spanish with Cole, Ben, Laura

FEBRURARY 13, 2024

Ok, let’s go through my day. Yet again I failed to take good notes on everything, so I’m definitely going to miss things. In the morning, I did my meds at 7:52am with half an avocado. Then, I went over to Methodist. At the beginning, I told the other volunteers that I felt most comfortable working with two people at once rather than a larger group. so I did that a few times, before I went up to the front desk to assist Kathy when she was checking people in. The other cool thing is that my mom’s friend Leslie stopped by for the first time. She’d heard about it being a good place to use Spanish through me, and today was the first time she stopped in. They decided her official start date might be the 27th or something. 

Then, I went home and did my meds at 4:30pm with some leftover white rice that had a third of a cup of shredded cheese sprinkled on it. Then, my mom’s friend Kathy (a different Kathy) picked me up to go to this TBI support group at Courage Kenny. At the group, I shared that writing things down often helps me to process information as well. We also tlked about good questions to ask a new OT or PR therapist. Then, she got tired kind of early and decided to leave early. We left early enough that I realized I still had time to go to my Spanish class that I’d skipped tonight., so she drove me straight there.

At the Spanish class, I got the name of the guy who is sitting in the middle of the photo. Its Ben and he’s also someone who goes to the Meetups that I have been attending. After class, I asked him how he felt like the classes were going. He told me that he’d felt a bit tired last week, which didn’t really answer my question.
