Although in the last few months I have noticed a couple of times where I have almost choked on food. I have to cut things in small bites and chew slowly. Aspiration pneumonia did cross my mind. And yes I have been coughing rather violently. Wasn't too surprised by the broken rib.
Do not go gentle into that good night. Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
