Today mom was asleep when I got there. I woke her up to go to activities. She had told Bridget and Heather no, but I told her we were going. So when we got to the library, George had already started, but mom joined in. Within just a few minutes, she unlocked her brakes, and I said wait what are you doing. She said going to my room. I said well it’s not over yet. She said yes. After exercises it was time for bingo. Oh what patience George has. I kept telling mom to stop cheating. Just trying to get people to laugh. Some did. Anyway, mom won the first game. She reached in the prize box and took a bag of gummie treats, which I thought not a good choice, (her lack of teeth) so handed her junior mints. She opened them immediately, I gave her 5 or 6, and told her I’d bring them to Bridget to put her name on them for snack time. One more game of bingo, and it was time for them all to go to the dining room.
This afternoon, the VNA OT called and asked me to get brake extensions for her wheelchair for independent management to prevent falls. This reminded me to call her doctor to check on the wheelchair prescription mom received on the 9th. The wheelchair John and I got is a one- month rental from Keene. I called Dr Graves-Austin office and was told the prescription was sent to Rutland Pharmacy on the 11th. They will call in the extensions prescription to RP.
I told mom Kandi Ross will be coming to cut her hair next week.
