I must be doing something different with my grandma's feedings because my uncle keeps telling me she eats well all week. But then when I see her she tries to pretend she's asleep and will just hold the bird's nest in her mouth. 1.5 hours in she looked a bit more alert and nodded when I asked her to eat, even though I'm pretty sure she didn't want to. Then I watched her attempt to swallow over 20 minutes before I let her just slowly let it drain out of her mouth when it was obvious that the swallowing wasn't going to happen. So this was my most dismal feeding effort thus far, but I mostly just feel resigned. I could tell she was trying to swallow to please me, and if she's eating well most days then that's better than nothing. Next Monday will be my last feeding session with her before I leave for Australia and Hong Kong, we'll see how it goes.
