Waiting to get over the hump

Dr. said Mom should start to feel better by Monday, but it's still 3 days away and she is miserable. Stayed in bed most of the day, skipping dinner. At around 2am, she said she was hungry, so I made some old fashion oatmeal mixed with honey and some dried cranberries. Her sense of taste affects her already diminished appetite for food. An appetite stimulant and some "swish and spit" was prescribed to help alleviate her symptoms. I hope she gets her strength back soon because this is no way to live. I hate seeing her this way.
