Mom's in a wheelchair again

Tuesday, March 13, 2018
Mom is in a wheelchair again.  The nurse said that mom was walking around at night.  She said mom said her legs hurt.  I helped mom with her meal.  I put food on the spoon and put her hand on the spoon and then she could more or less feed herself.  It requires constant monitoring and cueing, but she can feed herself.  I think it is just easier for the aides to feed her.  Jacquie said that mom would just start storing food in her cheek instead of swallowing.  Yikes!
Mom ate most of her meal.  Beef stew, mashed potatoes, peas and carrots and Nanaimo bar for dessert.  Yum!
I toileted mom.  She had a poop.  I changed her diaper because it was wet.  Combed her hair, wiped her face, applied Vaseline, brushed her teeth, etc.
Mom played card bingo with Ming and the other residents.  Shanta won a bag of potato chips which she gave to Michael.
Mom's ginger cat is missing.
