  • Maureen began her day @ 8:05AM. She is in good form. Diaper is heavy wet. Maureen had a very small soft bowel movement. Congestion is heavy. Maya and I went through our normal routine to get Maureen ready for the day. Click/tap here to view it.

  • We took a close look at the red/irritated area on Maureen's posterior. It is less red/irritated this morning. Overall, it by all appearances continues to heal.

  • Break service commenced at 8:50AM. Posture in geri chair is average. Maureen is tilting to the left and a bit forward. We used both green wedge pillows and Magic MIke to straighten her position. Click/tap here to view a detailed overview of all the steps of our breakfast routine.

  • Daily MiraLAX dosage: None

  • General observations @ 9:22AM> Maureen has gotten off to a good start. Her energy is at a god level. She is engaged, communicative and in vernal responsive. She is now tilting to the left. We had to reconfigure all three pillows to get her more more less upright. We have never seen her tilt this significantly to the left.

  • 9:50AM - Morning oral care routine

  • 10:06AM - Maya and I tilted the geri chair back one notch to make Maureen more comfortable and to relieve stress/pressure on her lower back. This is especially true today since she is tilting hard to the left.
