That is so awesome LJ. My wife says she knows how you feel watching your husband eat and enjoy himself. I am the same way as him when it comes to cold things. They hurt my mouth and hurt going down also. I have to get a drink, put ice in it, take the ice back out before I can drink it. Tell him not to give up on the strogannoff and to try and remember what it tasted like before and keep that thought in his mind when he is eating it. I have surgery on Wednesday but I would love to talk to him before I have to go in. I will PM my number if he would like to call or you can call if you would like.
