Mom has a new wheelchair and it already smells like pee

Wednesday, January 16, 2019
Mom was sitting at the dining table with Donna.  Both Donna and mom were in new wheelchairs.  Donna was not listing today. I gave her some bubble wrap to play with while she was waiting.  She had already drunk half her beverages.  She didn't want to eat.  After everyone except Donna had left she took her first spoon.  She ate most of her pureed carrot.  She ate most of her 1/2 of a banana.  She drank most of her beverages.
I massaged her legs because they were so cold.
I took her back to the room to toilet her.  I massaged her legs.  Once she was up on her legs, she was pretty steady on her feet.  I sat her on the toilet.  Her bum was a little dirty, but she only had pee in her diaper.  I changed her diaper.
Her nails had been clipped.  Finally. 
Chris and I took mom for a little walk around the facility.  She was happy.  I got Chris to massage mom's legs.  They were warm.  I guess the walking and the massaging helped.
I reported that mom's wheelchair smelt like pee.
