Hi Christine!

Thank you...I cannot beleive it either. His taste is coming back... it started off with smelling things and wanting to taste them, and now actually eat them. At first he said everything tasted kind of like metallic. He really wants that PEG out so I think he is really doing what he can to eat by mouth and gain nourishment to get it out. He seems to think in a few weeks it will be removed. We'll see... smile
