Donna's sister and nephew come for a visit

Sunday, February 10, 2019
When I arrived, all the doors were closed.  Apparently, a fire alarm had gone off so all the doors closed automatically and could not be held open by the magnets.  I found mom in the fish tank room with Donna.  They had just finished their morning coffee.
I took mom to the room.  The cleaning lady had arrived so I took mom out by the nurses' station.  I had the walkman on her and she was playing with bubble wrap.  She was happy. 
After the cleaning, I took mom back to her room and toileted her.  She just peed.  Her diaper was clean.  I cut her hair a bit.  The cleaning lady said that a new hairdresser had been hired.  I hope she fixes up mom's hair. 
I changed mom's pants because the ones she was wearing were too big.  I don't even think they were hers.  I gave them to the nurse.
I dropped off a box of chocolates at the nurses' station as well. 
I took mom back to the dining room.  She ate and drank very little.  She ate about half of her vanilla pudding.  I got her to drink a little more Boost.
Donna's sister and nephew dropped by and took Donna away. 
I took mom back to the room because she wasn't going to eat any more.  I wonder if I should bring her instant noodles.  Or would that just be encouraging her to hold out for junk food?   We went through mom's photo book.  I noticed it was snowing quite heavily so I decided to leave.  I took mom to sit with Donna and her sister and the nephew.  Donna's sister is tall.  Her son is a high school teacher.  They left shortly after me.
