Check out this boy and his eating! I count four cartons of milk, several boxes of cereal, and a Monster! David has lost around ten pounds (which I have found). The nutritionist came by at lunch today and gave a lecture about eating his vegetables and fruit along with his sugar. He followed her advice and ate some of the carrots and orange slices. Then, back to his room to eat a couple of donuts. Ooops, she walked by and caught him downing them and gave another lecture about eating healthy and healing (good thing he ate his veggies and fruit in front of her.)


During RT, David dribbled the soccer ball around, bent down and picked it up, and had some fun. We all took a walk over to the main hospital, had David ask for directions, and find his way back to Ward 7. He did great. Richard also let David walk by himself on the grass!
After therapy, David and I went to the DMV to get a temporary Handicapped Parking Tag. We were taken to the front of the line and out of there, with the tag, in 15 minutes! The advantages of being disabled! Patty

Another advantage: You can get a handicap pass at Disneyland. It allows the entire party to go ahead of the line. Get the pass at the fire station on Main Street. Show the ride attendants, and they have you go to the exit gate, where they let you in before they open the entrance gates. Cool beans!
