Two Steps Forward, One Step Back

I am so happy to write the title on progress rather than regression. Mom says Matt's strength is improving everyday, more in his right leg then in his right arm, which is a little strange but we will take it. Today when mom put her hand to the bottom of Matt's big toe, she could feel him putting pressure against it. Also when she held his right arm at the elbow and wrist, she could feel and see slight pulling by Matt. Keep it up Matt! They are thinking of trying Matt on a regular diet tomorrow, instead of the soft one he is getting now. Soft eggs and mushy cereal doesn't sound appetizing and I am sure Matt is tired of baby food! At 6 foot 7 inches he probably wants a HE-MAN meal. Just think, last week he was barely able to drink water, and now look. Real food. On the downside he had a bit of trouble with his breathing this evening, not in great distress but they did have to bag and suction him for about 40 mins, which really plays him out. But he is bouncing back so much better after those episodes, that it is just a speed bump now, instead of a mountain. So amazing that when I read the comments, there are people as far away as Florida reading this blog. Internet is good for somethings. There is goodness every where if we just look.
