Lollipop and Coming Home

Since we last wrote, Ilan has been making progress and has been allowed to enjoy the simple pleasure of a jolly rancher lollipop. My mom has given him a lollipop everyday to suck on for a half an hour or so while he is watching television or resting in his bed. About ten days ago Ilan started a new medication to possibly assist him in his recovery. If this medication does not help, they will probably try another medication in a few weeks.

Last night our whole family went down to have dinner and prayers with Ilan and Estelle. While we were eating Islands, we let Ilan smell all of the food we each got. When my dad gave Ilan the ranch dressing to smell, he especially enjoyed it. After we said the prayers and started to eat, we gave Ilan a lollipop so he could eat with us too!

The most exciting news that we have to share today is that Ilan's room in our house is 90% ready and he will be coming home on Wednesday or Thursday. Yes you read correctly...this Wednesday or Thursday!!

Thank you for your continued support and thinking about him.
