Dawn is eating yogurt and just started taking pro-biotics. I don't understand why her family, ?Mother, Aunt, niece can't help her out in a pinch.
She goes to a wound center once a week (Tuesday's) because she has multiple sores. She is uncomfortable asking Pete to help clean her butt and between her legs. Pete has offered. But she puts herself in bed every night at 4:30-5:00am!!
