Joe saw the swallowing therapist today and she gave him some exercises to do everyday. She said it was very important to keep the sides of his throat from fusing together from the scar tissue that is forming in there.

My Aunt emailed us that if he brushes his teeth just before he eats that it should improve the taste of food. We will have to try that tomorrow and see if it works.

He has tried to stay up all day and take a sleeping pill before bed to see if it will help him sleep better. Last night he was up until about 1:30am or so and then came to bed but was up almost every half hour or so. It is usually for something different each time and sometimes he doesn't even know that he is talking to me asking questions. I know that God will not give us more than we can handle and he know what that is better than we do.

Off to bed we go, till tomorrow :)

God Bless,
Crystal
