Day 40 hour 17

The speech therapist gave Tony some water and ice chips yesterday and he did well. She was going to schedule him for an X-ray sometime between today and Monday . they will give him something to drink with barium which will allow them to see if it all goes down the right pipe when he swallows. If all goes well he can eat again. One of the nurses said they usually take out the feeding peg and the trach right before they go home. Tony will be very happy to see it go.
