How was the Dr Pepper by the way Nate? Did it taste the same to you and not let you down like you thought it would? Well...for Ron he was always on the go. He may have been in pain and hurting but he was always doing something to keep himself busy so I only knew he was getting better by the less time he was in bed sleeping, even though to this day he usually does take a nap daily. BUT now I found out that he is able to swallow better now cuz the swelling he said has gone down and for the past 2 days he has been eating Chili and crackers WITHOUT blending it!! He just chops up the beans and meat a bit and his last day of Rad was 8/16/10 BUT he has Thrush real bad but he wants his damn chili so bad he is tolerating the pain from the thrush AND today he is going to the docs to get that shit taken care of finally and once he is done with that he said he wants to eat so much til he throws up! lol ewww. Day by day Nate.
