Another Step Forward!!

Last week my dad was cleared by the doctor to have liquids!! He was finally able to drink a diet coke and have a great big glass of water. Pretty cool huh?? He is still on the feeding tube to make sure he gets adequate nutrition and take his pills. He can't have liquids and solids together yet though....like chicken noodle soup. And he can't have things like a subway sandwich that has alot of different consistencies. So a little confusing but yea!! I think I am more excited for him than he is for himself...haha. His body kind of had a jolt from the diet coke. Can you imagine not having any caffiene for over 3 months!!! Then having a diet coke...haha. Well its a new thing.
