Hi Fish,

Thanks for a really encouraging post! I'm delighted that you've done so well.

On the dry mouth issue, get and chew Dentyne Tropical twist gum, it's sweetened with Xylitol and very effective in keeping the mouth wet as long as you chew it. My dentist recommends it, and I can see why.

Good luck, amigo!

Bart
