Hello again
How's it going. It seemed to be a rushed day for me. I kept thinking it was Friday. Even when told it was only Thursday. My body was thinking, I have to get this and that done before the weekend.
I was rushing around and when I am doing this I get impatient. Getting some clothing for mom and there is not enough cashiers on. And waiting when the lady in front is asking a million questions and disagreeing with the cashier about everything.
Not finding any staff to help me. This is a huge pet peeve for me. A major department store and not enough staff. Writing them might get some kind of a response.
Anyway, when I arrived it was not exactly cool where mom is. A little cooler than outside. Except for mom's room. With the fan going it was the coolest in the home. I asked mom if she wanted to eat dinner in their and she just said yes. So we did.
Mom was agitated and was squeezing my hand. I immediately new what the problem was. My was full/constipated and needed relief. She ate as much as she could. Fish and chips. But as much as she would normally eat.
Now when the staff came and put her to bed. We noticed that mom was trying to go. So up she went into the sling and the staff member gave mom an enema. And wow did this empty her out.
Again, it is the Tylenol that she is given everyday, 4 times a day, that is causing this. I have repeatedly said this to them, but they don't listen.
Not only does it constipate one, but it is really bad on the liver. Don't they get it. But of course they are making allot of cash by using this product. I would much prefer mom to be taking aspirin. Better for her.
Before we started I said to mom that we are going to empty her and a huge smile came onto her face. And afterwards mom looked so relaxed and felt so much better. Just a big smile with relief written all over her face.
I didn't get to read to her, I asked her if she wanted me too. But she said no. She only likes me to read to her while she is in her chair, after dinner and me sitting beside her, holding her hand, reading to her. When she is in bed. It is spa treatment time and time for me to just hold her hand while she falls asleep.
Now I am really made at the fact that the steroid injection made my arm shake even worse than it did before.
I am done.
GOD bless and good night
