Marilyn Visit 6-23-08
Marilyn was awake and alert when I went in, she mouthed where have you been. Felt bad as I had not seen her since last Monday in St. Francis. I explained about all the appointments and things that I had planned last week, told her I was back on track and would be up to see her twice a week as I have been.
Marilyn had a lot of cards and mail, read her mail and hung her card up for her. She had some lovely flowers from Dean and Katie Reece (sp), they also visited her today. Doyle and Virginia visited on the 20th. If you go and visit Marilyn would you please see if she has any mail and read it to her.
Her nurse Terri came in took her blood pressure, 116/80. Marilyn said that she was feeling OK. Wanted to know what day and date it was, her calendar had not been changed, showed her today was Monday 23rd. She asked if I brought her chap stick, which I did and wanted some on.
If anyone visits and would like to take something to her she could always use chap stick and body and face cream. Just an idea.
Marilyn could not verbalize this evening, but we did pretty good with the lip reading. Told her I would be up either Wednesday or Thursday.
