Today after our morning visit with Halina, we realised that not all of her caregivers are the same. Today’s crew was the cranky crew. There techniques were not as entertaining for the children. We took Halina out for our daily walk and on our return entered a room filled with silence. The care givers had sat them all down, gave them no toys and told them to be quiet. One caregiver stood in the corner snacking and watching a soap opera while the other was making notes in the daily log. Luckily Halina started to sing and laugh. We brought her some toys and all the kids started to play.
It is funny how some of the ladies are so helpful, while others are not. One of the cranky ladies asked me what we are feeding her to cause the rash on her cheeks? We told some banana, yogurt and other fruits. She then told us that she eats all that already and we don’t need to give her anymore. I challenged her on what we were told by the doctors and then asked her what we should feed her, and she said bananas and yogurt are alright (we assume she probably does not like the extra diaper changes Halina will reqr). We left smiling and politely told the ladies to pound salt.
