No nebulizer saline solution treatment is necessary. The diaper is medium wet. Click/tap here to view a detailed overview of the process Maya and I use to get Maureen ready for the day.

• Maya and I closely examined the waistline. There is almost no redness. As a result, we did not apply Nystatin Ointment.

• Breakfast service began @ 8:55AM. Posture in the geri chair is less than average. Maureen is tilting in a somewhat pronounced fashion to the left. We used both wedge pillows and Magic Mike to straighten her posture. Click/tap here for detailed overview of the entire breakfast service process Maya and I use each day.

• Daily MiraLAX dosage: None

• General observations @ 9:37AM> This morning has definitely been a mixed bag. Maureen handled breakfast quite well. She only coughed once. Energy is below normal. Consequently, engagement, responsiveness and communication were not good. Her eyes were partially closed throughout breakfast. Additionally, Maureen continues to slump somewhat heavily to the left and forward. Maya and I used a number of different combinations of the wedge pillows and Magic Mike to straighten Maureen's posture.
