Baby ice-cream cone

Friday, April 19, 2019
Mom was sitting with Donna in the fish tank room.  I found a fly in her Boost.  It was still alive.
Mom's room was being cleaned so we took mom to the chapel.  I tried to get her to eat a mini ice cream cone.  They kept melting and I had to keep eating them. 
I checked mom's fingernails and Charlene massaged her legs.
Mom was smiling a lot. 
She wouldn't accept any food.
Finally, we ignored her.
When we came back to check on her, I noticed the ice cream cone had disappeared.  I checked her pockets.  We suspect she ate it.  I found some Doritos in her pocket.  Her mouth looked to be full of Doritos and Charlene saw the ice cream cone in her mouth.  I got her some Boost, but she only took a sip.  I got her some orange juice and she sipped a little of that.  I was concerned that she had too much food in her mouth.  Eventually, she drank enough fluids to get the food mushy enough to swallow.
We took her for a bit to the thrift shop.  She waved to someone, but they didn't wave back so she was a bit upset. 
Soon, she sensed that the action was elsewhere.  I took her to the dining area.  I removed the flower display because mom really wanted to get at that rabbit.  Jacquie thought that the staff had removed it.  She said that mom had been taking the flowers out and taking them apart.  I had noticed that the vase had seemed rather sparse.
I didn't think that mom would touch any of her food, but I didn't stay to watch.
