Phillip and I went over this afternoon - Momu's left side is really hurting again - the nurse came in and is pretty sure it could be constipation, but Momu insists that it is not.  In any event, the nurse was going to give her 2 stool softeners as party of her evening medicine since Momu did not want to take any milk of magnesia.  They are also going to stop the iron pill tonight since that is also very binding.  Bottom line is that Momu needs to drink through out the day and she does not.  She also doesn't walk, so sitting with no liquids is a recipe for disaester.

Popa seems to be aware of his weight from yesterdays weigh in and drank a milk shake and had oreos while we were visiting.  He said he just has to force the meals down and has to gain some weight back.  He is not looking all that great.  Very thin.

The Kindle is going back - Momu liked the device, and could not believe how light it was, but  had a hard time pressing the page turn buttons and also said she prefers paper. 

They were dining in their room this evening because of her pain.  She continues to yell at him with his bad habits.  While I try to intervene and tell her he can't control  I will say the spitting is a bit much and pretty gross.  But the good news is he knows to do it directly into the garbage can.

I checked to find out when her hearing test was going to happen and because it was dinner time, the staff was busy with meal feedings, etc so they will check and let me know next time.

They both received letters from the State of Connecticut confirming they are now registered to vote in CT for the next election.  I am guessing this was prompted by the Medicaid process.
