Richard is a year out, and most things still taste like cardboard, but he mans up and eats because he is hungry, not for taste.  He says he remembers that it used to taste good.  Yesterday, he actually had 2 sweet rolls stuffed with coconut and I asked him if he could taste the sweet, he said he could taste a little sweet - so there is his progress.  Having minimal taste, has not stopped him from eating when he is hungry. Aloha, Barbara
