6:35AM - Maureen is awake.
6:40AM - Maya checked the diaper. It is wet.
Maureen began her day @ 8:15AM. She is somewhat alert and engaged. Her nose is significantly congested today. Diaper was medium wet. Wednesday is bed bath day. Upon completion, we examined all potential areas where perspiration accumulates that can lead to irritated skin. All areas looked very good. We did not apply Nystatin Ointment since none of the areas required it.
Breakfast service began @ 8:55AM. Maya began by giving Maureen a teaspoon of Manuka honey. She then administered the thyroid medication. Maureen's posture in the geri chair is good—tilting a bit to the left. She handled breakfast quite well—coughed only twice.
General observation @ 9:09AM> Maureen is rather lethargic today. She has far less energy. Her eyes are partially closed.
Maureen will consume approximately 4 ounces of prune juice today.
Daily MiraLAX dosage: None
