Thanks, We did download the Speakit App, and it looks like it will be a big help. IF he'll use it ... mostly he just wants to be understood, and I'm trying so hard to do that. In any event, it's a great idea and I thank you both for mentioning it.

Back to the slippery peaches. What a mess - LOL! They wouldn't go down, even in tiny chunks. I ended up chasing them all over the kitchen and we had ourselves a good laugh. But I did puree the rest of the can, and that definitely covers the taste of the meds. So it all worked out in the end. Plus, the laughing did us both a world of good.

I've been reading through the other parts of this forum, and am amazed at how many people have gone through the very same things as us. Feeling less isolated is good for me ... and I intend to learn more and more here.
