5:00-7:00     When I arrived, Dr. Vesper was relaxing in his recliner watching TV.  Stephanie brought me up to speed on the day’s events before she left.  I chatted with Dr. Vesper, took his dinner order, folded the clothes in the dryer, and began cooking.  He enjoyed a hearty appetite and ate well.  However, his blood glucose level was elevated at 187.  2 units of insulin were administered.

7:00-9:00     The remainder of my shift ran in quiet, routine fashion.  Dr. Vesper returned to the living room while I cleaned the kitchen, washed the dishes, and set out breakfast items and morning medications.  At bedtime I gave him his evening medications, then accompanied him to the bathroom for his night time routine.  He was visibly fatigued and sat on the commode for quite a while, but adamantly declined assistance from me.  When he was finished, I assisted him into bed and we said good night.

Dinner:     Salad, meatloaf, macaroni and cheese, peas, toaster corn bread round, and diet 7up.  No dessert tonight.
