Mom's Birthday

Saturday, October 28th, 2017
Donna was sitting at the dinner table.  Mom was sitting with Joan in the fish tank room.
I took mom back to her room and changed her.  I changed her diaper as well.  Her diaper wasn't too filled, but there was some poop in it.
We combed her hair.
Then, I sat her with Donna.
Charlene and Aunti Sumi showed up.  We took a photograph with Donna and then we went to the restaurant.
Mom had trouble getting into the car. 
She didn't seem very agitated and seemed excited about going out for dinner.
Mom was fine at the restaurant.  She ate lots of tempura, some fish and rice and lots of Japanese tea.  She ate the cucumber pickles too.  She refused to drink the miso soup with a spoon.  I was worried she was going to spill like last time, but she was fine.
When we got back, I took her straight to the washroom. 
Then I rounded up the usual group and we played cards.  It was quite deserted today.
After cards, Michael went to watch his movie.  I gathered up some other stray people and we drank hot cocoa and ate cookies.  The Chinese lady with the missing teeth ate two egg sandwiches.  The old man with the hearing aids is not allowed to have liquids, but he didn't want to eat his apple sauce either.  He said he had just come back from dinner with his daughter and wasn't hungry.
After the snack I got mom to wheel Donna back to the room and I got mom ready for bed. 
Donna had lots of trouble getting up from her wheelchair to her walker.
I said good-bye to mom and left.
