Monday

Mother's still feeling bad and this evening she was running a fever of just over 100.  The nurse will give her  the Tylenol early and see if it lowers her temperature. If it doesn't lower it then they will contact the doctor.

When I got there this evening Mother was still eating and by the time the nurse had finished feeding her she was so asleep I don't think she realized I was there. I got her to her room and helped her into bed. Mother's left eye is also infected, so the nurse ordered the antibiotic eye drops. When I mentioned that Mother was hot she checked Mother's temperature and found that she was running a fever. Since Mother last received Tylenol at noon it would have already worn off, so I'm hoping that the Tylenol will lower her temperature. If the Tylenol doesn't work the nurse will call us and let us know.
