Visit with Mom and Dad

First stop... meeting with Susan Press, new General Manager at NewSeasons. Discussed dissapointment with attention Mom had been getting at NS. Press said all the right things -- let's see if anything improves once Mom returns. Checked out new standard room (#321).

Second stop... visit with Mom at LVH Transisional Care Unit

Mom did not look good. Had been vomiting. No food so far today. She was obviously hallucinating: told me I looked like a 'cupie doll'; pointed out Vicki Lynne's 'gall bladder'. She had evidence of thrush on her tongue and needed her teeth brushed badly. VL helped her brush. Sad to see. We were not impressed with this TCU.

Third stop... visit with Dad at Phoebe Home

Dad looked very out of it. Could barely get out a word, other than 'How did you find me?' and 'Where am I?'. He's looks even thinner. Don't see how he can go on much longer. Nurse said he ate most of his dinner night before, though.
