Afternoon Coffee Time

Saturday, April 21, 2018
Mom and Donna were not watching the afternoon movie.  They were sitting at the nurses station with Joe, Anka and Lorne.  Mom was sleeping.  When she woke up, she told me that she couldn't eat anymore.  I had a little difficulty coaxing her to stand up.  I took her to the washroom and changed her diaper.  It wasn't that dirty, but there was poo on it.  I cleaned her up with towels.  I combed her hair, wiped her face, brushed her teeth.  I threw out her African Violet.  Her mum is managing to hand in there even though most of the stems have withered.  I'll have to bring a pair of scissors to trim the dead parts.
I took mom and Donna to the dining room for afternoon coffee.  Anka didn't want to join us.  I think Joe wanted to come, but he stayed with Lorne.
They served digestive biscuits.  Mom liked them.  Donna just ate one of hers and forgot about the other one.  Mom was eyeing it.  I broke it in half and gave half to Donna and half to mom.  I broke off pieces and handed the cookie to mom.  Mom put the pieces back together.  I think I will give her a puzzle next time.
I left Donna by the fish tank.  When I came back, Donna had been moved by the television.  I left mom with Donna.
