Mom had finished all her beverages. She drank my juice too. She was not having any of her pureed dinner. After dinner, Donna was put to bed. I toileted mom. I was just pee. She peed in the toilet too. At first she was uncooperative about getting out of the wheelchair, but then she changed her mind. The aide told me that she had been uncooperative about having her diaper changed earlier.
I tried to feed her again, but to no avail.
I took her for a walk to the lobby and we played with the stacking toy and looked at her photobook.
At first she enjoyed the stacking toy, but then she got frustrated. I helped her along. She liked the brightly coloured top piece, but was concerned about the clean underside of the top piece. She said the red top piece was her favourite. She enjoyed the photo album, but I'm not sure she recognized herself.
We walked back to the room to put away her toy and photobook.
I gave her half a banana from dinner and she ate that sitting in her wheelchair watching television.
I wiped her hand with a towel and she thanked me.
We played with a red balloon for a few minutes.
Mom's afghan is now on Zorka's bed.
I took mom to sit at the nurses station.
I think I will have to give mom a chance to adjust to me for a few minutes when I get there. I don't think she recognizes me.
