Friday, September 25, 2015
Mom didn't go to daycare today.  She seemed fine this morning when I called her at 8:30 a.m.
When I arrived later in the day she seemed relieved to see me.  She thought that I had gone away for a long time.  She had a good appetite for dinner.  She helped clear the table and dry the dishes.  She often forgets where to put away the dishes.
She often spills food on herself now.  I try to get her to eat over her dishes, but she prefers to sit back.  I think it's because she doesn't have enough fat on her bum.  I have to remember to put an apron on her when she eats and get her some kind of gel cushion seat.
After the dishes I gave her a bath.  I run the water, and then she gets in herself.  I cue her about which body parts to wash.  We start from her face and ears.  She loves it when I wash her back.  I just remembered I forgot to wash between her toes.
She complained about not having any clothes again.  She spreads clothes out on the bed.  It looks like a lot.  She found a pair of pants that need hemming.  I'll have to arrange to visit the alterationist.  Hopefully we will be able to do that this weekend.
She wanted to accompany me to the bus again, but I made her leave her keys in the drawer because I don't want her going outside the building.
I checked her blood test on-line.  Her iron is okay, but her RBC, hemoglobin and hematocrit are flagged as low.  I'll have to check on-line and see what I can do.
