I got Dr. Vesper up and to the table as soon as I arrived. While he ate breakfast, I got Rose up, dressed and prepared her breakfast.

I fed Kemper, took Rose to the bathroom and started dinner. Rose wasn’t feeling well during dinner, she ate all of her food, but with her eyes closed. Her face was warm and flushed, but no temperature.  After dinner and p.m. meds, I got her ready and tucked into bed, I hope Dr. Vesper took his p.m. meds and got into bed to watch the State of the Union address.
