Hello again
I arrived to find mom in bed, but of course, it is bath day, and the staff changed mom's sheets. OK, just the pillow cases. And put on the horribly uncomfortable sheets that they supply.. If you put the pillow cases on, why the hell don't you put the sheets on. To much trouble I would assume.
And they had blanket after blanket on mom. It was 30 c today. The window was closed. Mom was very hot. Now this is what I mean by they don't care how uncomfortable someone is. They are not in there giving mom something to drink. They don't even put her TV on. And if they do, they don't remove the cover on the side rail, so she can actually watch, see the TV.
This happens every Saturday. At least today they had music playing for mom. Better than most days.
I unpacked as quick as I could and uncovered mom, gave her as much to drink as she wanted. And put a cold compress on her head for a few moments. Just to cool her down. By GOD she was burning up, from to many blankets on her.
OK, now mom was hungry today, which is a very good thing. I made mom a beautiful omelet. I was given these eggs straight from the farm, they had a bright orange yoke. When I cracked them open, it freaked me out. I thought the yoke were full of blood. I am use to that pale yellow yoke. Chicken, crameni mushrooms and three cheese omelet. Mom ate the entire thing, and an avocado, plus some of the dinner she was served. I was very happy about this.
I put a movie on for her. Oh yea I bought her a blue ray player. I think I mentioned this before, but maybe not. So I put a movie on for her. It looked great on her TV. This laptop is obviously not HD. But, yes but. Mom likes to hold my hand the entire time I am their. And when she holds my hand, she closes her eye's. '
It is funny, I hold her hand, her eye's close. I let go of her hand and her eye's open. Mom is so trusting that she will eat with her eye's closed. Knowing that I won't just shove food into her mouth. I wait until she is finished chewing.
It doesn't do any good when I put a movie on. After awhile I just turned it off. I will have to come earlier for us to watch a movie with her. Well before dinner.
Then it was the usual nightly routine. Spa treatment and then I just stand and hold her hand while she falls asleep.
Me, in serious pain today. My shoulder and right arm are just inflamed today. My right arm is just shaking away.
I started life as a right handed person. I am now becoming a left handed person. I am not impressed with this. But using the other arm, rather than your dominant arm, lights up different areas of the brain.
GOD bless and good night
