Food!

After a few days of me sneaking in yogurt and getting yelled at by the doctor, my dad has finally proven to the doctors that he can swallow. Well it also helped that he pulled out his feeding tube over night for the 5th time. They were almost going to put the tube back again, but instead my dad tried a 3rd swallow eval and passed.

He's currently on a dysphagic diet and can only eat pureed foods, which is better than Ensure from a tube! He had lunch and last night he also tried some mac n' cheese and mashed potatoes. I think he was being a bit hasty and ate a little too fast, so he was coughing a bit later. Overall it's still good.

We are working on getting him moved to the Rehab center in the coming days. But still need to work on pending Medi-Cal app and have a discharge plan.

On a separate note, we'd like to thank the following new donors:
