I went to see Blair today. He was eating McDonald's when I got there - complements of his sister Samantha! Alex joined in and took over Samantha's iced coffee... and of course she took it in stride! There is nothing like an older sister who loves her little brother's (who are both taller than her). :)
Samantha helped Blair shower and gave him a much needed pedicure - I did take pictures to document her love for him (cause you have to love someone a whole lot to clean their feet!) but I am not going to post those here! Ha ha - He felt so much better after a real shower (even though it was in a pair of boxers and sitting on a shower chair). He has always loved taking care of his hygiene.
Blair was doing so well today! He opened a gift from his uncle (Scott) and it contained another blanket - this one Ohio State. (Who would have thought that my husband - the unending PSU fan - would purchase a bright red Ohio State blanket?) Blair loved it!
He didn't have any therapy today - but he did say it takes like three swallows to actually swallow the food he is eating. He is hoping that it is easier for him once the tracheotomy tube hole heals up. Prayers appreciated! I can't imagine swallowing repeatedly to get my food to go down!
A day doesn't get better than a shower and good gifts!
Thanks everyone!
