The corndogs and other things are out. I think we can manage some
sandwiches if an okay amount of salt is okay.

SO far, the chinese food we have made has been without sauce, so we
have avoided the salt that way. We can add some garlic and hot oil for
some flavor. Still working on better ideas. He likes fruit, if cut up
really small. They sell those little fruit cups in multipacks, so
those will work,.

He didn't come in today, so I am hoping he was just tired after
another appointment. That's what he said about last Monday as he
skipped that day too.
