Hi Delly
Sorry missed your posts. I only had the NG tube for 9 weeks , eating and drinking normally now ... Well the new normal! Bottle of water to help swallow , and getting on with the altered taste or lack of it! Some foods easier than others and some still sting like crazy !
Your dad seems to doing well , great stuff with the sip of tea we love our brews us English folk! Lol
My tongues been pretty sore since the little op on Monday just the waiting now get the results a week on Friday .
The next support group is on Tuesday 7 th April at Macclesfield hospital 6.30 / 8.00 in the cancer resource centre. Maybe early days for your dad but carers are always welcome. We meet every 6 weeks so whenever anyone feels up to it all welcome.
They're fab at Christies will really look after him , sorry your having to go through this , we're all here for you both
