Jazzy was given another swallow test and...(
drum roll)... she PASSED!! And yes, she is STILL a picky eater = ) The speech therapist offered juices, jello, and apple sauce... she wasn't going for it. She did however eat a little pears and peaches. In the end the thing that really got her attention was the chocolate pudding. When that was suggested she practically crawled out of her bed to get it. As Jaz would say "Now we're
TALKN!". These first bites were exactly 10 weeks to the day that Jaz first became ill and wasn't able to swallow or eat food anymore. As one could image the girl is hungry! It was so exciting to not only see her eat, but even hold her own spoon! Adding to the fun the pudding did get a little messy. It was very cute to watch her try and coordinate her tongue to lick the chocolate off her lips = )

I love chocolate pudding too Jazmyn! Good for you:-)
