I’m feeling slightly better about the situation with mum. The good aide is there today. So I know mum is being looked after. The staff can’t force her to get up but I can. I got her up and got her to eat the Boston cream pie. It took her 45 minutes but she ate it. She also had hot tea.
The nurse stopped in and talked to me so I know they are following protocol and doing what they can. Tomorrow is Monday so she can see the doctor. She was more herself between episodes of sleepiness. We watched most of When harry met Sally or whatever the name of that movie is. Plus the sun came out, that’s so nice and the temperature is back into a reasonable temperature for Minnesota.
I’ll go back at supper and bully her some more about eating something. She said she ate breakfast but breakfast was just a bowl of cream of wheat.
Still maybe it’s just the sun but I’m feeling more positive about it all.
