Paragraph 1
TS: First choice for the project was not Apple Rehab
SD: First choice was Pequotcsepos Nature Center
CM: Had to take my own action
CM: Ended up changing because could not get a response
SD: I had 2 choices to act, (Stay with the Nature center and get behind or go to a different site)
CM: I chose to go to a different site called Apple Rehab
CM: Chose this site because my sister had gone there for her project
SD: Patience has been a tough thing for me
CM: Going to Apple Rehab and dealing with older people would help me to overcome this
CM: Helping someone that needs to do things slow will help me work slow and not rush through my activities.
CS: In the end Apple Rehab was a great choice for me, and it turns out that I didn’t go to the Nature center for a reason.
Paragraph 2
TS: Throughout my visits I had many troubles
SD: One thing was understanding Frank
CM: At times I could not understand what Frank was saying and got very frustrating
CM: I felt like I wanted to give up at times but knew I had to work hard and push through
SD: Emotions were also tough to contain in my experience
CM: Felling badly for Frank happened almost at every visit
CM: I knew that Frank had a problem but it made me feel like I wanted to help him couldn't
SD: Finding things to do is a tough thing when there isn't much you are physically able to do
CM: Frank has a hard time doing mostly everything
CM: This made it extremely hard for us to find fun things to do together.
CS: Dealing with things is something that not only I, but also everyone in life will have to deal with, and this is just one great example of working with I having.
Paragraph 3
TS: I did lots of good things going to my site
SD: Going is one of the biggest things I did
CM: For me it was hard to get to my site but I knew when I got there I would be helping
CM: Making time for my site as also a big thing.
CM: My schedule is always very busy so sometimes it is a struggle for me to go visit Frank
SD: Taking the anticipative top ask when I need help was something I did well on.
CM: When I knew it was hard to talk to Frank I asked Barbra, the woman that takes care of volunteering at apple rehab, ways to help me talk to Frank
CM: She helped me and I think that is one good accomplishment for me to be independent
SD: Another thing that I think I did well on at my site is remembrance.
CM: Fink can be very random at times and it effetely helps to right paragraphs when I can remember details.
CM: Being specific in my paragraphs is one of the most important things I need to do.
CM: With ought righting notes it is hard to remember details but I think I have done a good job remembering.
CS: Complimenting myself is tough but I know that I have done good things and need to praise myself for them.
Paragraph 4
TS: Researching Franks disease definitely gave me a better understanding on how Parkinson’s disease works
SD: As I researched I came to see that all of the symptoms matched how Frank walks and talks
CM: It was quite interesting to learn about the disease and why he has the symptoms he does
CM: It was much more interesting to learn about Franks disease.
SD: Elderly care is something that I have never researched before
CM: Therefore all the info I found was brand new to me
CM: It turns out Parkinson’s disease is a very tough disease to control and there is no cure
SD: Elderly care is way more complicated than I thought it was
CM: I knew that taking care of the elderly was tough but I didn’t think about if the person had a disease or not.
CM: Taking care of the elderly by it is tough, but taking care of the elderly with a disease is a whole different story
CS: I definitely understand my subject much more than I did in the past.
Paragraph 5
TS: To Kill a Mockingbird definitely relates to my site
SD: When Dill had to visit an elderly woman he didn’t want to
CM: Attics made Jam and Scout because he knew it would be a good experience for them to have.
CM: In the end Jam and Scout realized that it was a great experience and became close to the woman they were visiting
SD: Apple Rehab was never really a “fun” thing for me to do until just recently
CM: I never really had a good time talking to Frank until I realized I had to make it worthwhile
CM: When I Really started to listen to Frank I found out that he actually had a lot to say and was very knowledgeable.
SD: To Kill a Mockingbird was a book about learning, in my opinion
CM: Going to Apple Rehab is about learning and that’s why this book definitely relates to my visits
CM: I think of my English teacher just like I think of Atticus.
CM: He is a very knowledgeable person that knows what’s best for me and that’s why I am going to Apple rehab
CS: To Kill a Mockingbird, in many ways, relates to my visits at Apple Rehab
Paragraph 6
TS: When I look back at my past visit I would have changed many things that I did
SD: Although I had a good time and learned a lot I could have doe some things much better
CM: one thing that I could have done better was question
CM: Questioning Frank was a tough thing to do but if I had thought up questions before hand the visits would have been much more productive
SD: Taking my time is definitely another thing I would have done differently
CM: Although I was very patient with Frank, I sometimes tried to leave right when my required hour was up
CM: This didn't happen every visit, but it shouldn't have happened at all.
SD: Being serious is something that everyone needs
CM: Although being serious is a good thing, too much of it can be bad
CM: I f I could change something in my past visits I would have changed my attitude.
CM: As I look back I realize that sometimes I was too serious and needed to become more relaxed around Frank
CS: Many things could have changed in my visits for the better, but nobody is perfect, and it shows that I definitely learned a lot about how to act around the elderly
Paragraph 7
TS: Going to apple rehab has definitely changed me
SD: This experience has changed me mentally and physically

CM: Frank made me realize that I should never take my health for granted
SD: Although I am healthy, every once in a while I think o myself how lucky I am to not be injured or disabled
CM: Before visiting with Frank I never thought about my health and abilities
CM: Frank has changed the way I look at health
SD: The last thing that definitely changed me was patience
CM: My whole life I have struggled with patience, and I chose to see Frank for that reason
