Thanks for checking in. I appreciate what you said about the time it takes to heal. Dan is 8 weeks post treatment and still cannot eat and his throat is still terribly raw. It's good to know that he is probably on schedule and as time goes by, he will feel better. It's hard to have patience. You think once treatment ends, so does the pain...so not true! We look forward to a "new normal" life soon!
