Anna's keeper

Monday, May 22, 2017
Had dinner with mom.  We got served last.  Spaghetti with meat sauce, lettuce salad and pudding for dessert.  The server made a mistake with mom's dinner and gave her peas instead of lettuce.  I pointed it out so she brought mom some salad later.  I wanted mom to have fresh veggies too.  Mom has no trouble eating.  She forgets how to use a knife so she can't chop up her food.
Everyone enjoyed their meals.  Edward ate most of his meal and he didn't even add sugar.
After dinner I took mom to the washroom.  Today she was wearing a diaper, but no underpants.
I brought mom a pair of her old shoes.  It was a snug fit, but she says she liked them.  I should bring her some thongs.
I brought 3 pairs of pants and a t-shirt to be labeled.  The pants I got from Charlene.  I think they were hand me downs from one of her aunts.  The t-shirt was new.  I altered it for her (made it shorter).
I brought a couple of summer tops from last year, but only one fit her.  Actually it was snug, but she liked it.  I'll have to find new clothes and alter her shirt.  I can put side panels in for her.
I only had time to take mom for a short walk outside. We stayed inside the gates.  Mom enjoyed looking at the plants.
We played cards with the group.  We had fun.  One of the care aides told me that I had to notify her when Anna was finished.  Then another aide came and told me that I was to notify her when Anna was finished.  I guess they are keeping a close eye on her.  Maybe because she had the fall?
Mom was having a hard time.  Anna was getting impatient with her.  Poor mom.
