my boyfriend at the home
cornelius now eats upstairs so i hardly see him. (this just started yesterday. i was in a state all day.) it makes me very sad. karol said she's going to miss seeing his smile (best ever), and i told her she's going to miss seeing my smile, because he won't be there to make me smile, too.
after lunch today, i went upstairs to wash tables, and he was still sitting there. so i told him i miss him and then asked him how his sandwich was (he likes sandwiches, so he often gets those instead of the main meal). he said he didn't eat it because they took it away. so i asked him if he got to eat his peaches, and he said no. i then asked him if he wanted to try the roast pork tomorrow instead of a sandwich. he said, 'no, i better not.' so i told him i'd send him a sandwich, and that we would just have to train those aides in on how he likes things. he just kept shaking his head. i finished washing the tables, and as i left i said, 'see you tomorrow, cornelius!' to which he replied, 'you probably won't.' :((

Oh no! How sad. I hate change and I can't imagine how big of a change that must be fore him. So good that you got to go visit with him.
he was in a much better mood today. i sent him beef stew, which he loves, and they let him eat it, so he had a big grin for me when i got there. :) (though i still miss him being downstairs.)
that's a happy story, although the original post was a sad story.
i agree with hobbitsister, & think she sounds a bit like lemony snicket here -- i feel so bad for your boyfriend, so i'm so happy to hear he was in better spirits today -- keep going to see him! :)
oh, i shall try :)
I'm glad I read the comments first. Your post had a happy ending, sort of...
