My previous charge's schedule needed more than I could give as my body got older, too.... so I've been sitting a set of young sisters that virtual home school for the last year, and that's why I haven't been on this page. I used to pick them up after school for dance and such so they already knew me. This has been a blessing of a job in various ways.
Caring for others makes me so happy :)

Last week, my charge was admitted to the hospital for neurological and psychological tests to see why she's unbalanced and more. Please keep her in prayer as she endures this change of routine. Thank you.

My charge had a setback yesterday, it was rough. But she's back on track today!👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏 Good breakfast for her, too 😁 She ate it ALL!
I always offer a lot to choose from. It's better than having to guess what they would want, or constantly bugging them by asking, "Well, do you want ___? How about ___? Or ___?" and them always saying No... (works on kids, too😉).

My new charge had a great day, considering how confused she was last week when she was put on the wrong meds at the medical facility 2 weeks ago. Those nasty toxins are finally leaving her body and she is so much less confused! I am so happy for her!

They had misdiagnosed her, and gave her 3 or 4 psych meds... two of which aren't supposed to be taken together! It messed her up so badly.
You are entitled to 2nd, 3rd & 10th doctor's opinions if need be. Your is very important! Take charge of it. I see far too many complacent people about doctors and meds. People's systems are not all exactly the same. What may cure one person, may actually kill another! Do your research. Educate yourself.

My charge's usual breakfast & lunch anymore is pudding with yogurt or applesauce, along with a boost & chocolate milk or sweetened vanilla almond milk. Her family feeds her soft foods like mashed potatoes, rice and gravy, finally cut up spaghetti with sauce, SpaghettiOs, etc. And of course water throughout the day.
I have not worked for her since last Thursday, so I have not been able to follow her progress... when I got there this morning, I noticed her feet were slightly swollen, and her toes were so blue that they were almost black, so I used a barrier Ointment and gloves and rubbed her feet & toes to get the circulation going. The Ointment also keeps her skin sealed & soft. Then I put her heel protectors back on her feet, propped up her knees and feet with towels, and raised the foot of the bed to keep the swelling down and circulation going.

Do please pray for my lady - she's swiftly getting weaker. Pray especially for her family. Thank you.
(I have been watching over her for 4 years this month.)

She's on softer foods now and bedbound 😥 However, she loves applesauce with cinnamon, and chocolate pudding for breakfast! Today's lunch is "spaghetti" - it's well-cooked rice with homemade spaghetti sauce.
Also various drinks thru the day like Powerade, tea, almond milk, protein drinks, etc. Soft cakes are good, ice cream, and so on.

Today's breakfast was lightly toasted bread with peanut butter and cinnamon sugar, one of her favorites! Lunch was cooked ground turkey with Manwich sauce and cut up hot dog wieners :-) I give her foods that have lots of flavor so that she will actually enjoy what she's eating! Hearing her say "Mmm! That's good!" makes me very happy!😁

Breakfast was a new casserole recipe I tried, very tasty! I only used half the amount of hash browns, I added finely chopped green pepper, and left out the onion that I intended to use.
