Thanks, Charlotte! What great news about your Tom! We are hoping for the best as well. The news that your Tom's taste has not returned is a little disconcerting--what taste has been affected the most or is it everything? Tom is supposed to get his tube next week. About the only thing he can taste now is salt--Campbell's chicken noodle soup is his diet!
