Solid Food

Both my parents slept well last night. From 11 pm to 5 am straight. That hasn't always been the case so it's cause for celebration.

Bob had visitors again today: my cousin Juliana, the doctor who works at the hospital, Ana Beatriz who is Pedro's wife, and helped with the physical therapy, and Tethi, my mom's very good friend.

Bob did not eat pureed food for the first time today. He has started eating small pieces of over-cooked food to practice chewing. He did very well. Here is a picture:

Doesn't he look great?!

Other than the food progress, there isn't much more to report that's new. The routine has been the same and we are still counting the days for Bob's safe return home. Thanks for reading and keep the positive thoughts and prayers coming.

  1. He does look great. Chewing, one of life's pleasures. I bet Bob's enjoying getting off the mush. He got a great haircut too. I'm sure he can't wait to get into normal clothes also. Here's hoping he returns home soon. :)

  2. Yes, he does look great! It's nice to read your updates and all of the small successes that are definitely adding up to big ones. Hope he'll get to be home soon! I'm still praying for him . . . and for you :)
