Melanie was admitted mid day Tuesday. To this point, she's only had 1 bad meal. That's because they haven't fed her until this afternoon about 3. Mashed potatoes, broccoli, and some kind of veggie pseudo meat loaf. Apparently a leftover meal since everything was cold and 3 hours after lunch. I went down to the cafeteria and got her an egg salad sandwich. Not good, but edible.
About 7 they brought a thick slice of pork with gravy, mashed potatoes, and green peas, a cup of grapes, tea, roll, and a carrot cake cupcake with icing. She didn't eat much but a little of everything and said it was good. The meal was hot, too.
The ICU ward is full of flu victims. Anyone who comes into a room must don a mask before entering, and that mask must be disposed of in the room as one leaves.
I suppose in situations like this, the hospital could blame the bad taste of the food on Tamiflu.
