He was doing a lot of exercises but kind of slacked off when he was in the hospital. I have been really pushing him to do them every day again. I am concerned now that he is not eating by mouth his throat will try to close shut if that is possible. I keep hearing about Wake Forrest doing new procedures for the scar tissue. Has anyone had any experience with them?
