Foot care

When Erin asked, "Are you comfortable? Are your feet cold?" referring to the water temperature, my mom said, "Ever?" A macro response to a micro question.

On pain reporting, a tricky business with dementia, I noticed today that when asked if she had pain in certain areas, instead of saying "no," my mom just sat there, not responding, almost like she couldn't understand the question. But when she was touched in an area where she DID have pain, she said "yes" right away.
