Today was gma's health care mtg at the NH.  When I walked in and the staff saw me, they began to say - "wait till you see Gma today!"  I asked if she was ok and she was, then I started to wonder what was going on. 

I couldn't believe it when I saw her.  She was smiling and talking like she used to do.  She even did a little jig to the music that was playing.  She was using sentences and laughing.  It was so great to see her like that again and of course today would be the day that I didn't take the camera.  One man kissed her on the forehead and said, "I love you gma" and she replied, "I love you too you little fart".

In the care mtg the nurses reported that she is staying in bed most of the time and is having problems with energy while walking.  I asked them to move her bed near the front door of her bedroom so she doesn't have to walk so far.  I also told them to take her off the sleeping pill unless they are having problems with her wandering at night.  She has gained two pounds so she now weighs 77 lbs.  and they report she eats (on the average) 50% of her meal.

It was such a great day with her today! I hope there are more.
