Dehydrated

She told him that the carers had said that she was dehydrated, and that’s why she isn’t able to eat. Something to do with a dry mouth, I believe. They are going to get the doctor in to see her. It was only a few days in the ward but it clearly knocked her. She’s so fragile, easily tipped over. Keep her safe. Let her be comfortable again.
