Hi, Flo try not to think about what if, or what is, but what will and can be. I had a drippy ycky chin area, my tongue had goobers on it, and drool everywhere. I came home from the hospital and my children were all home for Thanksgiving. My Doctor came up with Montgomery bandage thing to be put on my chin to catch all the nasty stuff. The residents could not make it stay on , nor the nurses so they send me home for my poor family to try. I remember being propped up in bed and my whole family on their knees around the bed trying to make this thing, it would fall off after any moisture got on it and they would do it all over again. It is one of the warmest memorys I have of my ordeal, how they loved me enough to go to such lengths to make me comfortable.They all say do you remember that awful Montgomery bandage Mom had to wear? Even if I would not have made it my family being there and encourageing me was a beautiful gift from the heart.
