This morning Yvonne got a big smile out of Dave.  He also smiled when I told him that Peter was jealous that Dave's blog had more followers than Pete's.  This afternoon he was able to manage eating ice chips, and when Barb and Fred stopped by this evening he said, "Enough about me. How about you?"

Clarification: I was jealous, now I'm in denial. It's worth it if it makes Dave smile! Hmmm....

I'm in denial
For just one smile,
Just one smile from youuuu, Dave!

You're eatin' soft food,
But you do it with style!
King of the ICU, it's truuuue, Dave!

Help me out here, folks...

Hey, I'll believe it when I see it. Somebody take a photo of him so I can see it's really true!!!
Dave, I'm so glad you are doing better.
Love, Pam

I want to send out continued best wishes to Dave for his recovery, and love and admiration for his steadfast sibs and extended family. Also, in response to Peter's call for help, I'm willing to submit the following doggerel.

Love, Ted


(sung to the tune of "Mame"):

You coaxed the blues right out of our hearts, Dave,
Public morale is up off the charts, Dave,
Your whole clan shouts hosannas,
'Cause you're awake and better ev'ry day.
You want to eat bananas,
A sign that greater healing's on the way.
You've made the "Watch" blog easy to read, Dave,
We know your comeback's gonna succeed, Dave,
We're all relieved and happy
Now that your state of health is not so grave -
You've made us feel alive again,
You've given us the drive again,
To make our hearts revive again, Dave.
Dave! Dave! Dave! Dave!

Pete's and Ted's talented contributions both made _me_ smile, anyway.
