Diarrhea

Saturday, November 3, 2018
Mom was sitting in a wheelchair.  She was served a half portion today.  She ate most of it.  At first she was difficult, but finally she succumbed.  Larry told me that she had diarrhea and that she had just had a diaper change. 
Donna put her cabbage roll in a bun and tried to eat is like a sandwich.  It was very messy.
Edward ate his brownie, but didn't eat much dinner.
After dinner I took Donna to the nurses station to sit with Joe and a new resident.
I took mom back to the room.  I could smell poop so I decided to toilet her.  She had filled her diaper again with diarrhea.  I cleaned her bum, but she said it hurt.  I think she has a hemorrhoid so I reported it to the nurse.  Poor mom.
I took mom to the lobby and we played with the stacking toy, but today she was kind of tired.  She enjoyed her photo book.
I took her back to the room and she was ready to sit in her wheelchair again.  She nodded off to sleep so I put her afghan on her.  She and Donna were happy to sit together.
