Marilyn Visit 8-26-08
Marilyn was awake this evening and mouthed Oh so good to see you. Told her that I was up last night but that she was sleeping. She really was trying to talk but I was having a hard time understanding her. She kept mentioning Claire Jr’s wife, I said Margot and she said no, she was getting frustrated that I couldn’t read her lips. I said do you mean Floyd Jr. and she looked at me and said yes that is what I have been saying. She did seem a little confused at times, but I guess that is to be expected.
I told her at one point that I needed to get home and she kept mouthing no don’t go, stayed for about another 20 minutes and the nurse came in to suction her. Told Marilyn that I would be up tomorrow if she was still in hospital, she mouthed you promise?
Marilyn’s nurse said that she would be going back tomorrow to Inola. Her vent from Inola was not there. Her nurse also mentioned that she needed better care at the nursing home, she said I am not supposed to say that but it is true. She said she needs to be suctioned more and bathed more often so that they could keep up with her skin infections, she mentioned that the condition she came in on Sunday evening wasn’t good.
