Today we got confirmation that the other anti depressant is discontinued. No more Zoloft. May take a few days to normalize that.

Spoke to Dr. Mayberry and will follow up with him tomorrow.

Physical therapy was cancelled today due to a care management team meeting.

The dietician was there and is really engaged. She has gone over the choices on the menu and made some changes. Their goal is to get patients to eat, which is critical at this point. So she will be replacing some of the more esoteric menu options with simpler choices.

Mom's energy level was low today, possibly reflecting the lack of PT and any exercise.

She did have a visitor and was having a good enough conversation when  I had to go into the meeting.

When I came out she was sleeping.

She's been good for breakfasts usually eating 60% Lunches less though she did have a can of ensure. Dinners have just recently become real challenging. She'll eat a couple bites and then say "I have to go to the bathroom" Which is great for stopping dinner dead in it's tracks! By the time the get two people to get her into and onto and back again 30 min have passed, dinners cold and she convinces them to put her to bed.
 arrrrrggghhhhhhhhh!
