I went in to see Isobel at 1pm today. She had already had her New Years Day roast beef dinner followed by Christmas pudding. She was happy and alert and watching Dr Who on television. She was aware it was New Year's Day.

Her speech was rather imprecise and it took a lot of effort to clarify the subject of conversations; but this did not disturb her good mood. Isobel ate a few few shortbread biscuits followed by a fudge bar. Later on Isobel ate a banana and some grapes. We did not talk all the time, Isobel was content to just lie on the bed and watch television at times. She did not have any headache or other discomfort. I went home at just after 3pm.
