=== P ===
i found (P) sliding off from her bed while she's asking for help. i tried to call two nurses to help her out which they gladly did. when (P) started getting comfortable she started talking. well, atleast tried to talk. at first i didnt know what she's trying to say i keep hearing 'scissors' and i was like, what does she needs the scissors for? and she keeps trying to keep her hair away from her face so i thought that's why she's asking for scissors, because her hair is making her uncomfortable and maybe she wants to have it cut off. but after a few minutes i realized she's saying 'cesar' and she sounded like she's talking to someone. and i may have heard something like "im sorry cesar". i'm really not sure. it's really hard to understand what she's trying to say. anyway, she looked very anxious that day and instead of reading for her i ended up just watching her and trying to help her with her hair and i would just rub her hand and whisper "it's alright, it's alright", because she really looked like she's struggling over something. i've never seen her that anxious.
=== I ===
i went to see (I) next. she's in a very good mood as usual. i was laughing the whole time when she was trying to out do the other old lady infront of her who keeps screaming something unintelligible and (I) would be like, "i can do that better" and she will make sounds that sounded like a bird gurgling, *lol*. and then she started singing. she said she like that song very much. i wish i know what that song is so i could find an mp3 and have her listen to it the next time i visit. i tried to ask her if she remembered the title of the song but she would just keep on humming. i tried to hum with her but she would just laugh at me, *lol*
=== T ===
i found him sitting at the dining room dozing off. but he opened his eyes when i said hi to him. i did nothing but sit beside him and smile at him whenever he'll open his eyes to look at me.
=== J ===
(J) is also in the dining room w/ (T). she looked really pleased when she saw me. i like that. i was actually watching her from a short distance while i was sitting with (T) (i didn't think she saw me come inside the dining room), she was just sitting on her wheelchair and watching tv and she looked bored. but after i was done visiting (T) and went to her oh how she smiled! and she started talking although i still find it difficult to understand her when she talks but i somehow was able to make out some of the words she said like that one when she asked where i have been. i would try ask her questions about how she is, if she had dinner already and she would answer but then again it's really difficult for me to hear her well because of her soft voice and kind of nasal voice. i just try to nod and smile whenever she talks pretending i understood her and she would smile at me in return.
p.s.
see that photo...that's my hand... i figured if i put some on my nails it would be easier for them to decide w/c color to get... i brought several color of nail polish to bring it with me at the hospice so i could have some manicure session w/ my girls (except for (J), i can't do (J))... i asked (P) if she wants her nails done and i showed her the nail polish i brought and the colors on my nails but she said no...i was thinking of asking (I) the same question but dinner was about to be served so i can't... maybe on my next visit...
