A couple of Jon's friends, Art and Gary, came down for a quick day trip on Friday. Brother Greg and Little Jimmy, a friend came down Friday night and spent most of Saturday with Jon. Another friend, Paul, came over from Newark on Saturday afternoon.

Jon is at least trying a bite of everything before saying he doesn't want it. He apparently liked a chicken dish tonight. He had cantaloupe for breakfast and peaches for lunch. He likes his fruit! We can pretty much guarantee that he will at least eat his fruit. I brought him a child size Frosty earlier today but he only ate 2 bites of it.

Jon seems to be holding his own in the breathing department. He has been off the vent but is still receiving oxygen through a tube in his nose. Milk is producing more phlegm and was giving Jon a hard time after eating supper tonight. At least when he was on the vent, when he had sleep apnea, the vent would go off, startle Jon and he would start breathing again. With out the vent, there is no alarm to startle him. So Dad is staying with him tonight just to make sure that his breathing doesn't go too low. The alarm on the oxygen sensor is set to go off when he goes lower than 85.

That's all for now. Thanks for checking in.
