Update By Heather 10-9-13

When I got here at around 5 mom was doing quite good. She was pretty alert until around 8 where it seems to have definitely waned since then. However Mary her night nurse reminded me that the 4th-5th day are usually the peak days. She ate her mashed up food great however she used her left hand. But she got it in there. The nurse told me that we need to help her slow down so she doesn't aspirate. She was shoveling it in pretty fast   Mary is on tonight and says she is a worrier by nature so she will be keeping a close eye on her. I am going to stay until 10 or 10:30 so call me if you need me.
