Day 118 -- (Day +10)

Sunday.  Easter Sunday.  Look what the Easter bunny left for Riley!  Sprite is the only drink that settles well and as he says, "gives him a sugar coating on his sore throat".  That Easter bunny is so smart! :)   Taryn mentioned to me that they were serving ham and mashed potatoes in the cafeteria today for Easter.  Riley wanted some so bad.  "It just doesn't feel like Easter without ham!"  So I thought mashed potatoes were probably fine on the throat and I could cut up some ham in very small pieces. ...  Didn't work out too well.  It tore up his mouth...    Sprite will do. :)  Actually, we are thrilled he is getting sipps of anything.  Some transplant kids don't try anything for weeks!  Hang in there Riley!
