Thanks guys (I was wondering where you were!!)
The ropey saliva/choking just started night before last.He does not have a suction machine but honestly I don't think he could handle one right now..-He has too much pain. He sees his ENT nurse tomorrow -thank God.
He is out of ER now, still waiting for some swabs to come through to know if he has an infection or not.
I am not with him at this time, I drive over Weds to relieve mom and bring him back home on Fridays for the weekend (although weekends might be over)The hospital he is at is 3 hours away but we have an apartment there to be near him.
Yes, feel free to email me with anything Chicagosteph, and how is your Dad? It looks like he finished treatment on 10/2.
Thank you all so much.
