well he ate Chili yesterday!!! Yay! Not alot of course but he ate it and only complaint was that it was spicey. He had water to wash it down but only did it twice. My son is a Sous Chef and made the chili at work and brought us some and it was really finely made, finely as in good and finely as in he had his meat ground really fine as well as the veggies. Only thing you could see chunky were the beans. Which I mushed them up and picked the skins out(and ate em myself lol) he mentioned maybe some tuna salad which I made him this morning for later, one step at a time. the hard ones are the smoking and drinking, and believe me people you can tell me till you all are blue in the face, cuz it will match my face too. you can't make an addict stop unless they want to no matter what has happened to them obviously and he has't hit that yet. and he may never.
