  • 6:40AM - Maureen is sleeping soundly. Her diaper is dry.

  • 7:40AM - Maureen remains asleep—stirring lightly.

  • 8:05AM - We were about to begin the morning routing when Maureen fell back asleep.

  • The day officially began @ 8:45AM. Maureen is in good form. She is alert and engaged. Her diaper was slightly wet. Djon throughly cleaned her with warmed wipes from the purple packet. There were no red marks on her posterior.

  • Breakfast service commenced at 9:07AM. Djon administered the thyroid pill before we started feeding Maureen. Her posture in the chair is near perfect. She does not require any adjustment or assistance at this time.

  • Maureen's menu this morning is a banana,1/2 an apple and a 1 cup of white rice.

  • GENERAL OBSERVATIONS> Maureen's energy and engagement is good. Her eyes are wide open. She is talkative. Arms/hands are somewhat loose.

  • Maureen has a small pimple on her upper right cheek. It does not appear to be anything of huge consequence.

  • 9:37AM - Maureen's posture in the geri chair continues to be near perfect. She requires no assistance to sit up straight.

  • 9:42AM - Maureen started to tilt to the right. Colleen and Djon inserted a green wedge pillow into the geri chair.

  • 9:45AM - Maureen just nodded off for three minutes. It is the first nap of the day.

  • Coughing was at a minimum this morning during the breakfast service: 3-4 times at most.

  • 10:02AM - Djon administered the blood pressure pill and baby aspirin.

  • 10:13AM - For the first time this morning Maureen has begun to utter the low groan/moan occasionally.

  • 10:23AM - Djon just examined Maureen's upper right gum line. The buildup of dried blood we observed yesterday is now gone. After brushing this morning, there was a small bit of blood emanating from that specific area.

  • 10:42AM - Maureen is starting to lose energy. Brow is now furrowed. Eyes are starting to narrow.

  • 11:25AM - Djon checked the pull up. It was wet. We proceeded to the bedroom. He cleaned Maureen thoroughly and put on a new pull up and pair of shorts—the urine had seeped through. We noted no red marks on Maureen's posterior. We then headed to the front room and placed Maureen in the lift recliner.

  • 1:15PM - Pull up was wet. Took Maureen to the bedroom to be cleaned and changed. There were no red marks on Maureen's posterior.

  • 1:30PM - Lunch - Maureen continued this afternoon on her limited BRAT diet. She had a banana, 1/2 an apple, a full piece of toasted whole wheat bread and several teaspoons of rice. Her energy and engagement at lunch at times was low. She uttered the low moan/groan from time to time as lunch proceeded.

  • 3:10PM - Djon determined the pull up was wet. We headed back to the bedroom to clean and change Maureen. We noted no red marks on Maureen's posterior.

  • As of 3:30PM, Maureen has consumed approximately 30 ounces of water.
