Thanks Christine,

Today was actually a good day. After sleeping almost all day yesterday, I woke up feeling much better. I was able to eat some food by mouth and drink ensure by mouth. When I first tried to eat it was such a shock that the taste was nauseating. Today, as I ate I just kept telling myself that this is the new taste of things. All in all, I didn't get sick from eating it. The biggest step forward is that I was able to drink the ensure. If I can do that on a regular basis, I dont see why I would need the PEG tube, but that's anouther subject. As far as the mouth rinse goes, right now I'm using a Rx Product called NuetraSal. Maybe you've heard of it. I'm wondering if I need to use the baking soda and salt on top of that or if thats enough by itself. Anyway, I hope there are more days like today.
