What's that Smell!

Hey Gang!

Well, some more good news. It's something little you and me, but it's a big deal for Dad. He sneezed today. That's right... he sneezed. Not only that, but he was also able to sit up in a special chair today for about 40 minutes after being unable to do so for about a week or so. So, just to sum up this past week's events...

- Dad was able to breath on a lower machine setting each day for the last few days, and even asked to be set on a lower setting today.

- Dad took his first swallow this week. This is significant, because it means his neck muscles are starting to reawaken and he'll be able to support his own head more, among other things.

- And today, Dad sneezed, which is just cherry on top of the cake.

We're hopefully that more things will continue to happen this coming week. When I visited him and Mom on Saturday, he was very uncomfortable due to his ongoing GI issue. This issue is what we would like to get back on track with next, but we'll take anything we can get. After all, pickers can't be choosers (hehe). So be sure to send Dad a message to keep encouraging him to get up out of the bed and to congratulate him on all the new things that are going on.

We'll update you again soon when there's more to report.

Team Jerry all the Way!!!
