Busy Day with Therapy

Good evening. Kathy called us today with some exciting information. Rudy had a very busy day with Occupational Therapy and Speech Therapy. The Occupational Therapist worked with him with sorting shapes and he was pretty successful with this. WAHOO. The Speech Therapist gave him a few sips of water and after a little time, he was able to swallow the water. She then went and got him a couple of bites of vanilla pudding, vanilla ice cream and jello. He was again (after a little time and alot of work) able to eventually swallow a few bites of these as well. The therapist was quite encouraged with this progress and plans to try to feed him some pureed foods Monday at lunch time. The Physical Therapist was going to come this afternoon and try to do some mat work with him but at the time that we spoke to Kathy that had not happened yet. As soon as I hear how it went, I will let you know. Rudy is probably going to be exhausted tonight and hopefully he will sleep well.

Again, our family appreciates everything everyone has done for us and continue to ask for prayers.
