Magic mouthwash is the rinse you cannot use very much. But the other one that is baking soda, salt and water is one that you should use a lot and what it does is help bring the pH level in your mouth closer to where it was. That was the only thing that helped with the sores. I can understand from a mother stand point that it wouldn't be enough and my mom struggles with me and my lack of motivation. I can do more than I used to be able to and should be doing more for myself. It's hard.

I will also put you all in my prayers. It's not a easy road but one you can get through.
