Dislodged hard stool in mom's butt

Saturday, February 23, 2019
Mom was seated at the dining table when I arrived.  She is out of quarantine.  The whole gang was there.  Edward didn't have his glasses or his watch. 
Mom was disagreeable at first, but she started to eat.  She ate most of her pureed beets.  She had all her beverages.  She ate very little of her chocolate pudding. I suspect that she was having a bowel movement.  After dinner, I took her to the toilet.
She had a full diaper.  She had poop.  I was cleaning her bum and putting on her new diaper, when I realized that more was coming.  There was a round poop in the toilet and another one coming out of her bum.  Mom had complained about something being hard (not difficult, but solid) earlier and I wonder if it was the poop stuck in her bum.  I squeezed the area around her anus and some poop came out.  I continued to do this and other chunks of poop dropped into the toilet.  I cleaned her up again.  She was relieved and happy. 
I washed our hands and then I changed mom's pants because they were a little loose.  I put on a pair of gray sweat pants.  All her sweat pants were in her closet.
I cleaned up the bathroom.  Chucked the dirty towels in the dirty clothes, wiped down the toilet and sink with disinfectant.  I put a nightgown and an undershirt on her bed.
I put the headset on mom and was able to get her to drink a cup of water.  I put some artificial flavouring in the cup to entice her to drink.
I took her for a walk in the lobby.  We sat there for a while and she tried to have a conversation with me.  She pointed to the small bag that we carried the walkman in and the quilted wall hanging.  I took her back to her room and put her in her wheelchair.  I wrapped a quilt around her legs.  I put the hedgehog in her arms.  I took her out to sit with Donna in the fish tank room.
I found a mouse poop in mom's closet.
