Mom and Donna were having coffee with Betty when I arrived. I missed coffee. Mom was trying to explain that there had been a cake as well. Betty wasn't sure whether or not she had a coffee. I sniffed hers and it was definitely a coffee. I shared mom's milk tea. It was sweet. Donna asked me several times about the traffic.
I took mom and Donna back to the room. Mom wanted to use the toilet. She had peed in her diaper. She was touching it and complaining. I changed it for her. She had a bowel movement in the toilet. Hurray! I had to comb her hair because it was quite matted at the back.
I helped Barbara with her Christmas decorations. She had a tree up.
Then mom and Donna and I went for a walk around to look at Christmas decorations.
I brought Donna back to the nurses' station. I put the headsets on mom and took her for a walk to the lobby so that she could sing. She seemed happy.
When we got back to the dining room, Donna was already seated.

What's your son's name?
Wednesday, November 29, 2017
Mom was standing at the table. She wouldn't sit down. I asked her if she had to use the toilet. Bingo! We rushed, but I think she had already pooped. I changed her diaper and cleaned her up. She always wants to remove her own diaper, but she tries to touch the poop. She even tries to clean the toilet. Gross!
We had Shepherd's pie. Chris' favourite. And cheesecake with blueberry sauce. Mom ate all of the Shepherd's pie but she didn't touch the broccoli. I took Donna back to the room, but she seemed bored so I took her back to the nurses' station to sit with Anka. Mom didn't want to look at her book or listen to her Japanese music so I took her for a walk. They had decorated for Christmas so I took photos of mom beside the trees. She quickly became tired of this.
Chris arrived and ate his dinner. I gathered the girls and Michael and we played card bingo. I videotaped some of the action and then I got Chris to videotape as well.
When we were leaving, Michael asked me what my son's name was:(

New card player
Monday, November 27, 2017
Mom, Donna and Edward were already seated when I arrived. Today we had oven fried chicken, broccoli and oven baked potatoes. Dessert was a black forest cake. Mom ate the chicken and potatoes, but she didn't touch the broccoli. She ate half and orange. She gets food stuck in her teeth and tries to remove it. I hope that I am successful with the toothbrush.
After dinner I took mom back to the room to use the washroom. She was clean. She did one little ball of poop. Donna asked to use the washroom too. This time the care aide did change her. The guys tend to be better than the female aides.
I put the headset on mom and took her for a walk. Then she just sat and sang along to the music. Finally we sang a song together.
We played card bingo with the usual group. Jack joined us. Joe said he wasn't feeling well. He has a British accent and he seems to be a shit disturber. Yesterday Joe was yelling at him. Today Jack was yelling at the care aide.
When I was saying good-bye to mom and Donna, Jack asked for a hug too. So, I obliged.

Football
Sunday, November 26, 2017
Mom and Donna were already seated at the table when arrived. Mom mentioned something about going to the bathroom. We barely made it. She soiled her diaper slightly, but mostly we were successful. I changed mom's diaper and we went back for dinner. We had macaroni and beef casserole, mixed veggies and banana cream pie for dessert. Edward liked the macaroni and beef casserole. Jacquie didn't show up.
After dinner mom wheeled Donna to the nurses' station. I took mom back to the room for another pee and then I put the headset on her and we went for a walk. After a few minutes she said she was tired so we just sat and she sang along to her music. I brushed mom's teeth and washed her face. I put some Vaseline on her face because it was dry.
Michael and Joe were watching football so they didn't want to play cards. It was just the ladies: mom, Donna, Shanta and me. They missed Michael.
After cards, mom pushed Donna back to the room. Donna immediately went to the toilet, but the care aide made her wait. Mom wanted to walk me out. I made her wait at the nurses' station because I wanted to drop something off for Jacquie. When I was walking back I noticed mom had wandered off to the fish tank room. She was anxious. She was lost. I retrieved her and took her back to the room. This time she said good-bye and went directly to her bed.

Poopie diaper
Saturday, November 25, 2017
Mom and Donna were seated at the table when I arrived. I asked mom if she had to go to the toilet, but she said she was fine. I went to drop off my things. I also wiped down the toilet just in case we needed it. There was poop on the seat.
Meanwhile, Edward had joined the table and Jacquie too. I went to use the toilet and get a tea. When I got back we were chatting. All of a sudden, mom got grouchy. I suspected she had to go to the toilet. This time she answered in the affirmative when I asked her.
We ran to the toilet. It was too late. Mom had diarrhea. She had already pooped in her pants. She was upset. I had a hard time keeping her hands away from the diaper. After I removed the diaper, I noticed that there was poop on her trousers. I had to take off her shoes and remove her trousers. I was worried she might have gotten poop on her shirt and wool sweater too. Luckily the gray wool sweater seemed fine. There were a few flecks on poop on her shirt. The poop wasn't too smelly. I cleaned mom up the best I could. She wasn't very cooperative. She said she was clean and didn't understand why I had to wipe her down. I put a clean pair of diapers on her, put her dirty clothes in the laundry and wiped the toilet down. I shut the door to the room and opened the bathroom door to shield her as she ran to her bed. I got a pair of trousers for her to put on.
We went back for dinner. Mom didn't eat very much. She didn't like the Brussels sprouts, but she would forget that she didn't like them and eat them. She hardly ate her macaroni salad and salmon. I ate everything and the bread pudding too.
I got mom to push Donna back to the room. I brushed mom's teeth. After dinner she kept saying something was stuck in her teeth. A piece of food did come out. I combed mom's hair and looked at her photo book with her. Mom enjoyed it. Donna said she had to go to the washroom so I wheeled her in their and she pulled the cord.
I took mom to play card bingo with Michael and Shanta. Michael was already waiting for us. I got Joe to play with us because I didn't know when Donna would be back. Mom won twice, but she was anxious and kept asking what she was supposed to do. I had to keep telling her to turn the card over.
Donna never showed up. I took mom back to her room. Donna was still sitting there. She hadn't had her diaper changed yet. A male care aide said he would be on it. He had just changed Joan.
I said good-bye to the ladies. Mom walked me to the door of her room and waved.

Mom got a hair cut
Wednesday, November 22, 2017
Mom had already eaten most of her dinner when I arrived. Both mom and Donna sported new haircuts. I had eaten half my dinner when mom said she had to go to the washroom. We made it! Mom took a poop. I changed her diaper. We got back and finished dinner. It was a "Chinese" chicken "stir fry." Dessert was a banana mousse tart.
We had a lot of time after dinner today. We wheeled Donna to the nurses' station. I took mom back to the room and we went through her photo album. We read through the ant and the grasshopper, but she didn't want me to read her any more stories in Japanese. I put the headset on her and we walked around while she sang.
We played cards. Chris joined us after he had dinner so I let him play my hand. I let him call the cards for a couple of games while I went to the bathroom to freshen up. He told me that I had bad breath. How embarrassing.
After cards we left mom and Donna with Michael in the television room.
Chris was wondering why Michael was at the facility. He thinks Michael is "normal." But that may be in comparison to mom and Donna.

Deluge
Sunday, November 19, 2017
It was pouring rain. Mom had cleaned her plate when arrived. It was my favourite dinner. Greek chicken. I missed it. Barbara said that I should go and ask for a plate.
I had mom push Donna back to the room. Mom wasn't wearing a diaper. I put one on her.
I combed mom's hair. I replaced her toothpaste.
We played cards. I asked Santos to join us, but he only played one game.
After cards, mom said she had to take a pee. Luckily we made it.
I had mom push Donna into the fish tank room to await their hot cocoa.
The bus came on time. It was pouring rain and cold.
