Mom's Birthday

Sunday, October 27, 2019
Today is mom's birthday.  She received two cards: one from Yuki from Tonarigumi (I think) and one from St. Michael's.  The nurse and aides were happy with mom's anti-strip suit and want me to purchase another for daytime.  Poor mom.
I cleaned her hands and put rolled up bibs between her legs.
She ate some of her dinner and most of her beverages.
I took her to the fish tank room at 5:30.  I couldn't believe that someone had taken my half-drunk coffee and mom's vanilla pudding.  They leave abandoned food and dishes all day and I leave mine for a few seconds and it is gone!
Luckily the other foods I carted over were untouched.
Mom was trying to put her left hand down her pants so I had to distract her.  Finally, I rigged some bibs around her left arm and tied a bib to her left arm.
She was quite dopey, but I was able to get her to eat some banana, more dinner, a Cheeto and more beverages.
She played with the bubble wrap briefly. 
I moved her to the nurses' station before I left.
