Sheila

Friday, June 22, 2018
Mom had already drunk all the beverages when I arrived.  I took her to the washroom because I didn't want a repeat of Wednesday.  The care aide told me that mom had her bowel movement at 4:30.  Hurray!
Mom ate about 1/3 of her meal.  She fed herself.  She ate some orange and spit out the fibrous bits.  She ate some ice cream.  She ate a piece of the crusted sole with tartar sauce.  She spit out a fibrous ball. 
I took mom to the washroom after dinner for a pee, but nothing came out.
While she sat on the toilet, we went through her photo book.
I brushed her teeth, washed her face, etc.
It was supposed to be horse racing tonight, but as there were no volunteers, Ming changed to hitting the ball with a foam stick.
I labeled mom's new shoes and put them in her room.
There is a new guy.  He has a heart problem.  His mind is pretty good.  He's nissei.  His daughter's name is Sheila.
After the balloon activity I went to take mom to the toilet, but she refused to get out of her chair.
