Keeping Her Safe from Spam Musubi

Mom's assisted living facility serves healthy, balanced meals chopped fine to reduce the risk of choking in the elderly residents.

They do permit outside food to be brought in (we do cut it up, but not as granularly as the facility), so I picked up Hawaiian food for her lunch and dinner.

Impulsively I grabbed a spam musubi for her afternoon snack.

It was only later, as I was cutting and sorting the food into containers, that I noticed that the spam musubi should be consumed by 1 p.m. and could not be used for her snack.

Without hesitation I ate it. Anything to keep her safe.
