I forgot to mention, and wondered if Pam (the Goose) has any comment. Jim
was singing "Singing in the Rain" last night, it was almost word perfect
but not very much in tune

Well, Jen, I was a singer in my day, good enough for solo's onstage, but am
only just getting my pitch perfect reproduction back ;-))

So if it's the 'not very much in tune' bit you're wondering about then I can
say that happened to me, too.

If it's the song you're wondering about then it could full well be he has
been woken by rain which has stirred a memory.
If that's the case then memory is returning, maybe even old memories are
re-surfacing.
Either way that's good.

Just play the games with him, it's real to him and he has to be encouraged
to act this way on things that come into his mind. It gets the brain to be
able to think. I didn't realise my thinking powers were gone and it was too
quiet in my head until the day thinking started again not so long ago (I've
forgotten when ... LOL).
But when thinking *did* start again I remember feeling it was noisy inside
my head, that voice that kept on about things was not mine! After a good
talk with Ray I realised I was supposed to have that voice there, it was
called 'thinking' and I had to listen to it and talk back to it, in my head,
not out loud. It's never been a problem since :-))

I don't know how people repair after these traumas without someone like Ray
explaining things to them :-) Remember wtw and the nerve pain everywhere
problem of mine? He said it sounded like the computer that had lost the
colour coordination of plugs and sockets so I had to plug leads in every
socket in turn till I hit on the right one. Ray comes up with things like
that and he has put me straight over and over again :-)

Word perfect? Yes, he must have loved that song in his day :-) The words
were sitting there filed away in his brain. Yesterday they came to the
surface for a while and he used them in the only way he knew. It's all
progress :-) Keep at it, Jim :-))
