I hate the drooling as you do but it must serve a purpose. Good luck with your next surgery. It seems we are on the same time line with this stuff.It's getting close to my 4 yrs too. Keep up that gumption. You are a winner.
Since posting this. UPMC, Pittsburgh, Oct 2011 until Jan. I averaged about 2 to 3 surgeries a week there. w Can't have jaw made as bone is deteroriating steaily that is left in jaw. Mersa is to blame. Feeding tube . Had trach for 4mos. Got it out April. --- Passed away 5/14/14, will be greatly missed by everyone here
