Hi, Steve,

No apologies necessary. My husband has continued with the Botox injections as they seem to help, although they do not eliminate the issue completely. After consulting with another H&N surgeon, we decided the risk outweighs the benefit with the tether on the untreated side of his mouth (which is where the drooling is most prominent.) I wish you well. Like Vicky, our friends and family aren't bothered by Clark's drooling at all. Even with this acceptance from loved ones, it remains a very tough hurdle for my husband. Add that to his speech not being understood and difficulty eating, our social life is quite limited. However, I think we do an awesome job managing things. I've gotten more creative at making tasty pureed meals for him and we still play golf.

Best–
Anita
