Hi all,

I am new to this forum and have joined on behalf of my brother (50) who had a biopsy on his throat and has just been through radio and chemotherapy. He is in recovery now and has been given good news in relation to the treatment process and is now doing physiotherapy on the muscles around his throat. He has to wait a number of weeks to have a CT Scan. He continues to use a tube through the stomach for food although he can only take liquid food replacements. He has tried to orally drink some water but this has caused him problems as it is going in to his lungs. This is his biggest issue as he wants to know if he can or will ever be able to eat �normally� again? Any light you can shed on this or experiences would be grateful. Many thanks in advance. Philip
