Cookies for the staff

Sunday, September 24th

I brought cookies for the staff.  The box was heavy.

Mom and Donna were already seated when I arrived.  Mom had already consumed her milk, juice and my juice. I told mom I had to go to the washroom.  When I got back, she said she had to go too and tried to go in the direction I had come from.  I use the guest washroom, but she has to use the one in her room.  I took her to her room.  She had pooped in her diaper.  She always tries to get in on the action and I keep trying to keep her hands away from the diaper.  She had another bowel movement.  I got her cleaned up and we headed back to dinner.  We all got served at the same time which was really nice.

Greek chicken, greek salad, pilaf and chocolate cream pie.  My favourite!  We all enjoyed the meal.
Jacquie wasn't there.  I helped Edward open his two creams and I helped Ailene roll up her sweater sleeve.  After dinner I took mom back to the room, put her head set on and took her for a walk.  She was enjoying her music and singing.

I got her to comb her hair at the back because it was really matted.

We played card bingo.  It was fun.  Joe is such a card.

We had hot cocoa together.  I brought Barbara to join us after the boys left.

I helped mom brush her teeth, wash her face, and use the toilet.  She had a little more poop.

Then we went to sit by the nurses' station.  

I got a ride home from Alan.  He said mom was hanging out in the lobby on Thursday.  He said she was disoriented because Donna wasn't there.
