May 23 Update from Lyn

Just got done feeding Mom breakfast. She ate quite well. 1/2 of quiche serving. Full slice of bacon, 3/4 of large serving of crumb cake muffin. 1/2 large mug hot chocolate, 1/2 small glass of orange juice.

When I got here Kirsten was curling her hair. Mom was in good mood and had just asked to go to the bathroom.

This was in contrast to Pat's and mmy last evening's visit where she pretty much cried or wailed for 3 hours. . But again she was talking during most of it. We really had a lot of conversation. She would stop the crying when we offered her water or shake to sip. (diabetic shake).

Cute anecdote: she was wailing " Mary where are you? Mary, where r u. This was shotly after we said part of a rosary with her. So I interrupted her and asked, "Are you asking about Mary your daughter or Mary Mother of God?". She looked over at me and said, Well, both of them!". We all chuckled.

This morning no sadness. She is napping in her chair. Maybe evenings are going to be harder because she is more tired? Lyn
