COMMENTS: when I arrive Dr. Vesper and Rose were still sleeping. Rose up at 10:30. She was awake and alert. Due to her sore foot, I chose not to put the stockings on Rose. Cleaned her up in RR, pad was damp with some fecal smear. Getting Rose to take her morning meds was challenging. She did not close her mouth and swallow. I tried coaxing her and she did finally swallow. Instead of making breakfast I tried giving her ensure. She took 1 sip than fell asleep. I will feed her when she wakes up. 2pm meds. Her eyes are open, she takes her meds with 1/2 cup yogurt. So I made Rose an egg and 2 slices of bacon. She pocketed the first bite and did not respond to her ensure. I gave her some OJ with miralax and she responded better. Eventually eating 1 slice bacon, 1/4 egg and about 4oz juice.
Dr. Vesper up at 12pm. Ate his usual breakfast of cereal, a scone and coffee. 3pm he moved to the LR and I gave him grapes and turkey/cheese roll ups.
The remainder of the day was spent with Rose napping and Dr. watching TV. I tried to get him to change his pj’s but he declined. I did set out clean ones on his bed.
