Watermelon

Saturday, June 16, 2018
Mom was sitting with Donna and Edward had just arrived at the dining table.  I took mom away to toilet her.  Her diaper was mostly clean and she did a little pee.
We had pork roast with mushroom gravy, mashed potatoes and corn.  Mom had pureed pumpkin, mystery meat, mashed potatoes and gravy.  She was served first, but didn't want to eat.  She had drank all her beverages.  She had drank four creams and had filled the empty containers with milk.  I guess she was bored.  Donna was just rolling her eyes. 
After we were served and started eating our meals, mom started feeding herself.  I was happy.  She ate most of the mystery meat and some pureed pumpkin.  I also got her to eat half her custard. I gave her a few orange sections to eat.  She liked them, but chewed on the fibrous bits for a long time.  She eventually swallowed everything with a chaser of custard and milk.
I took mom and Donna back to the room.  I toilet mom, brushed her teeth, wiped her face, etc.  She didn't complain about her bum hurting today.
We went to play card bingo.  Even though I had told Alan that we would be playing card bingo at 6:00, he took his mom to the dog park.  He brought her back about halfway through.  He said he had lost his phone and left.  He asked me to take Shanta back to her room after the game.
Michael won 4 times so he was very happy.  Mom was sometimes participating, sometimes not.
A Chinese lady from the kitchen gave me a piece of watermelon.  It wasn't that great, but I ate it.
A nurse tried to give mom some Tylenol, but she wouldn't have it. 
I took mom back to the room and this time she did some poop.  I didn't notice until I went to wipe her bum.  I had her sit back on the toilet and she did a little more.  It was quite liquidy.  I changed her diaper too.  I brought her back to sit with Donna and then went back to dispose of the dirty diaper and towels.  When I got back, they were both having hot cocoa.
