Take some time to relax. Heal slowly and don’t rush.
Everyone here is cheering for you….

I can swallow,some issues but was very good considering I had brain surgery on my brain stem. That area is main area fot that nerve
I will attempt some food tonight for first time So weird I had to eat and drink many liquids and a digestive cookie with barium mixed in or barium icing under X-ray. Looks promising. The only other issue is very low blood pressure.

Wowza… you smashed that plate of food 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

I remember the first piece of toast and coffee I had after my surgery. Had been days since my last meal. Crazy the little things a guy remembers…

The next step will be getting the other end working … all them drugs cause trouble 🤬

I feel that being able to eat real food was a huge step for me today and this is a very positive leap in my recovery. Lots to start working on after. Got to get my recovery of my right side. Thanks for all peoples input
You need anything dropped off for you? I will be at the hospital on Sunday. I can drop it off with the nurses.

I cannot imagine how good it felt to eat food again after OVER a month!

Glad to hear you're still making steps the right direction.
