I got a phone call at about 11:45 a.m. from St. Michael's. The nurse discovered that mom had a sore on her right hip. I went to see her at about 5:00 p.m. but she was heavily sedated.
The nurse showed me the wound. There was some cream on it. They will send her to the hospital for x-rays. I may have to take time off from work to meet her at the hospital. Poor mom.
Mom was snoring very loudly with her mouth open. I wet her mouth with a piece of cotton. I stayed for two hours, but she never came to. The nurse said that she would probably be sedated until 8:00 p.m. I was distressed. I had been working hard to get mom to eat and now she was so heavily sedated, she certainly won't be eating. It was a waste of my time too. I felt angry.
The nurse said that she would let tomorrow's nurse know that I would be coming at 1:00 tomorrow.
I had two boiled eggs for her, but I ate them.
