Mom has diarrhea

Sunday, September 30, 2018
Mom, Donna and Edward were sitting at the dinner table.  Jacquie never showed up. Mom was in a wheelchair.  I asked staff where in the head she was hit, but no one could tell me.  Mom was kind of sleepy, but she eventually perked up.
Spaghetti tonight.  Mom got pureed stuff.  Mom drank her beverages with a straw.  My food came last.  Mom insisted on sharing with me, but I told her mine was coming.  She was quite cooperative and ate about half of her food and a banana.  She drank her Boost, milk and two apple juices.
After dinner, someone took Donna to her room.  She was sitting in a hospital gown in her wheelchair when we saw her.  The room felt cold.  I checked the windows and they were shut.
Mom was very cooperative about going to the toilet.  She had already soiled her diaper.  About a tablespoon of diarrhea.  She farted a lot.  I let her sit on the toilet for a while.  I cleaned her up.  As she stood up, more diarrhea came out and soiled her pants.  I sat her on the toilet again and changed her pants.  I brushed her teeth and combed her hair while we were waiting.  When I thought she was done, I once again got toilet paper wads and put one in each of her hands.  I prepared towels in the sink.  I wiped her bum.  Then I noticed more diarrhea had leaked out.  I had to change her pants again.  I sat her down on the toilet again.  Finally, I repeated the cleaning process again and changed her pants again.  Mom was happy.  Mom had been on the toilet for over half an hour.  I reported the information to an aide.  I was going to tell the nurse, but she was no where in sight.
I went through the photo book with mom.  She was in a good mood.  I gave her some water.
Donna was still in the wheelchair when I left.  Must be a busy night for diaper changes.
