Dr. Vesper was watching TV, Rose had just finished her 4:30 toileting. Stephanie M said Dr. Vesper didn’t get up until 2 o’clock, even though she tried several times to get him up, he kept saying “just a few more minutes.”  He had just finished eating breakfast a few minutes before I arrived. Because of his late breakfast, I delayed dinner. The going was very slow with Rose, but she did eat most of her dinner eventually.

COMMENTS:
 I did a few routine chores then got Rose up and dressed for breakfast. She ate and had her morning meds. Dr. Vesper was slow at getting up this morning, but finally made it around noon.  He had his meds with breakfast and did his morning reading. The afternoon agenda was lunch, p.m. meds, TV and naps. Dr. Vesper ate well, but it was go slow going with Rose, eventually she completed about 90% of her dinner. They had their p.m. meds and prepared for bed.
