month. She is 5 feet-6 inches (167.6 cm) weighs 110 pounds (49.9 kg) and has a BMI of 17.8. After one week of residing
at Sunnyside, Jack visits and is saddened when he finds his mother in her room alone. Jack approaches the nursing station

help her get better!”

participant in her community. Her hobbies include knitting, playing the piano and reading. Lilly reluctantly has agreed to
go to Sunnyside Health Care Center after her son accepted a job that required him to travel.
