5 more RTs

Today
8.23am SK is not sure if she will be discharged today. She seems too dehydrated, the doctor wants to put her on a drip.
10.36am Doctor didn't ask SK to be discharged. She will be put on the drip soon, when the nurses are not too busy.
5.31pm SK is sleeping soundly now. She cannot eat the hospital food. She was drinking the high calorie drink since lunch time until an hour ago. She couldn't drink because her mouth was too painful. SK drinks after taking muccaine (3 times a day), the medicine to numb her throat.
