Good morning! Another great day, dad passed his swallowing test Thursday so this morning he's eating eggs and yogurt! The peg placement will stay in just to make sure he gets the proper nutrition. I just want everyone to know how much my mom is doing, if it wasn't for her none of us would be in such great spirits. She has literally held my dads hand every step of the way! It takes a lot to be in a hospital everyday and watch him go through this so I'm really thankful my mom is the person she is. My dad is mumbling more and more everyday, his speech will be here soon I can feel it! He walks a little more and a little easier everyday as well. We have a Charlie brown Christmas tree in his room (that is dads favorite Christmas movie)! My mom always makes him smile!

    Brooke,
    I am a colleague with your Dad at Purdue. I just was informed about this blog. Thank you for doing this to update us on your Dad. I have great respect for him as a person and professional. He has always communicated how important his family is to him. Please tell him that the Sposato Family is praying for him and your family daily. We look forward to your updates.
