After sleeping much better last night she feels a bit better this morning. Her arthritic hip is hurting her pretty bad today, but on the 21st I take her to this arthritis/pain Dr. so I'm praying he can help her with that. She said it was all she could do to stand and fix her breakfast.
The home nurse should be coming today and tomorrow will start her Meals On Wheels visit.

Maybe the home aid could come in the mornings, fix breakfast and then something for dinner too!

That's what we're hoping for Gayle. If Mom could just get the pain to go away she would probably be able to do fix herself some meals. Things is with Mom....you do anything for her and she'll not try herself.

Yep, I understand that wanting everyone to do for her. She needs it when she's in a lot of pain, but not if she can get the pain under control.

The first Wheels On Meals meal was delivered to Mom yesterday. She sure wasn't happy...LOLOL. They brought buttered beans and some kind of tough meat. Also milk and apple juice. Mom didn't like any of it. She told me to just cancel it. I told her she needs to wait just a bit and see if there is something else that she'll like...not to judge just one meal. I did ask her if she knew the person that brought it and she said...."no...it was some elderly lady". ROFL!!!! She has no clue...LOLOL
Since I have a 2-hour delay today, my brother and his wife will be taking Mom to the pain dr. I sure hope something can be done to help her.

Janet, often meals on wheels are not the most tasty foods - but hey, you didn't have to fix it and it is free (or it used to be free). If your mom is craby about food, she is not likely to be happy!

Is there any way some one can make enough meat for lets say two weeks. I don't remember what there called but you wrapped the food in plastic and then the machine sucks the air out. You can freeze the meat and when she wants meat she just boils the bag. Her nurse can boil it for her and it taste great.
