Get Well, Mother

Went to check out how mother is doing. I took her an armrest thing for the john which will hopefully give her some stability in the bathroom. (Thompson's calls it a "commode", which I think is an odd term for it.) We don't want any more falls! I brought her a rose, and I hope that brightened her day a bit.

Afterwards I went to the Riverside Resale furniture store and bought a small table - well it's really a small chest - for her to use as a chairside table. The one she has now is far too small.

Dick went in to the Agency; he's working overtime these days to try to get people set up with the proper Part D plan. It's on his mind a lot. There are so many people in serious trouble over this extra-complicated government program. I think he feels somehow responsible.
