I went in to see Isobel a few minutes after 5pm. She was asleep when I arrived. Isobel could not be woken at breakfast time, however later in the morning she woke and ate a pot of balanced supplement. She ate her lunch and another pot of supplement during the afternoon and has drunk well.

Isobel had got part way through a beaker of blackcurrant squash when tea arrived. She ate the main course of scrambled egg and tomatoes quickly and finished the blackcurrant squash. She also ate dessert very quickly and easily. She was not able to make any replies today, but listened as I updated her on events at home. She was rather tired and dozed for a short while. It was a pleasant evening with blackbirds excavating in the leaf litter outside Isobel's window and rabbits grazing on the grass a few yard away, but sadly all of this is lost on Isobel.

I woke Isobel shortly after half past six and she ate a pot of balanced supplement slowly but without problems. As far as I could tell she did not want her book read to her; but she seemed interested for a few minutes when I gave a running commentary on a snooker match on television, although she did not open her eyes for most of the time. Isobel drank a beaker of orange squash very slowly, was obviously tired, and fell soundly asleep after. I left at 7.40pm.
