Donna doesn't feel well

Wednesday, January 17, 2018
Mom, Donna and Edward were already seated when I arrived.  Mom had consumed her beverages.  She didn't seem to have an appetite.  She was very interested in her orange segments.  She wasn't sure about the orange peels so I demonstrated how to remove them.  I helped her with her fork and spoon, but she really didn't seem to be interested in the food.
We had chicken stir fry on rice and carrots.  Dessert was a cherry tart.  Mom ate a few pieces of chicken and carrot.  I asked her several times if she had to go to the washroom, but she said she was fine.
After dinner we took Donna back to the room.  She said she was tired and coming down with something.  I told the nurse so she came to check on Donna.  The nurse assured me that there was no sign of the flu on my mom's wing of the building. 
I did the usual toileting, combing of hair, brushing of teeth, etc.  Then I took mom to the dining area and Chris was there so we sat with him while he ate his dinner.
We played cards in the kitchen area.  I took mom back to the room and Donna was waiting in the doorway.  Chris pushed her out to the nurses' station while I toileted mom again.
