Brody is starting to get his appetite back somewhat. Last night I pulled a tangerine out of the fridge and started eating it... he looked like he was interested so I asked him if he wanted some... he said not but said mommy bought some donuts... So i got him out some white powdered donuts and gave him small bites over an hour while we watched some TV and he tolerated them well.

This morning he wasn't interested in the food they brought him for breakfast but we brought in a box of cookie crisp cereal (one of his favorites)-- we spread the bites out every 3 to 5 minutes and he has been tolerating them well. We are taking a break now (he had to get some medicine for his mouth that we swab on his cheeks and gum and that he spits back out-- he is not supposed to eat or drink for at least 30 minutes after this... it has been a hard 30 minutes for him. He has asked every few minutes for some more cereal.... 2 more minutes and he gets some... just said "I'm hungry".. can't keep him waiting....

More later....
