Swallowing assessment a go
Praise the Lord Matt's swallowing assessment went well. He was able to have a orange frappe drink and was smiling from ear to ear. For the next few days he will get a fluid diet, and then if he does okay will go to soft dental and then on to the good stuff. Staff were very excited for him as were we. He was able to go outside today and did a tour of the main floor. Company in so day went very fast. He is doing well on portable vent. Psalms 118:29 says O give thanks unto the Lord, for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever. Our prayers for tomorrow are that Matt will continue to get stronger and start moving his left hand.Jeremiah 29:12 says Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me and I will listen to you.
