Maureen consumed 30 oz of water. Many times she just refused to drink- kept the liquid in her mouth and then spilled it out. She was tired today. Her nose was constantly running. The coughing exhausted her.
I retook Maureen’s temperature @ 7:30, it was 99° … I will recheck it again later.
8:30 vitals … temp - 98°
O2 - 97
Pulse - 67
