March 31, 2013 Sunday

I went in at 1:30 and they were weighing her. 153 I overheard. I know she used to be 175 back in November.  It’s mostly been since the hospital threw away her teeth. I am not sure what other conditions that she has now might contribute to weight loss but I am certain the teeth have had a great impact.

She was very warm and they had her dressed in a long sleeve shirt and normally that’s good but the room was very warm. The roommate had two fans blowing. I asked maintenance to remove a chair and check on the temperature. I got up on a chair and opened the vent s bit but it looks like the upper vents are closed down too.  Mom is very unhappy with the room right now and I am hoping that will change. I cannot possibly got back to management and ask to move her again. Gregg and I hung up some art work and rearranged the room so there it appears a little larger.  

Mom told us to not hang the art as we might not be staying in this room. I told her we could take it with us if she moves.  Since I have never had children, by choice, I have to imagine that this is similar to how parents feel when they bust their ass and do something they think will greatly improve their kids’ lives and the kids just HATE it. J oh well, fun lessons to learn at 60.
