Day 246 – First Food Test was Successful

Cindy is now able to eat (not munch) on thick pudding.  Her diet now consists of ice chips and pudding.  Today she had vanilla pudding. The Respiratory and Speech Therapists will continue to test her ability to eat/drink a few times a week.

This is what Cindy’s lunch tray looked like.

What’s under that cover?

 Pureed Meat and Pureed Potatoes with gravy.  The green stuff peeking out is pureed vegetables.

Fruit

 Vanilla Pudding

Cindy tried the pureed meat and potatoes.  She almost choked because she isn’t ready for that yet.  Just the pudding.  So she started on the pudding and was full after a few bites. She currently prefers the ice over the food.  We’ll be watching what she eats over the next few days.  We just know there is no BBQ for her on the Fourth of July.
