Unfortunately they forgot to give Lionel his lunch one day and he had told me before on two occasions that he hadn't had any dinner but thought he was confused due to dementia and Alzheimer's . Also arrived one day to find Lionel struggling with a table which was just about in His grasp but at his side with his dinner left on it. Eats with a spoon but regularly have to ask for it. His teeth are nit cleaned regularly.
