Got in late last night from spending a couple of days in Macon with my parents. My mother isn't eating well, saying she's full and just doesn't feel like it. The first think the wound care specialist asked at her Friday appointment was, "How is your nutritional status going?" Her bedsore is now a stage 3, with stage 4 meaning it has gone to the bone. After doing all the horrible stuff they do to clean it up he said that IF the nursing home changed, cleaned and dressed the wound every day, IF she started eating, IF she took her meds, IF she stayed off the wound, then it would improve. But, if any of these aren't done, it could have major repercussions.

We ate lunch with her in the dining hall there and then brought in Chinese for supper Friday and NuWay for both she and Mrs Cotton (her roommate) Saturday for lunch before we left. I did a bit of shopping for her and colored and did her hair. She is still so beautiful.
