I so hope this is a cold and not early treatment effects. His throat is sore, coughing up mucous and he says cokes are burning his throat. No fever and the sore throat has not stopped his eating so it's not severe yet or anything but it's bothering him and he's getting pretty hoarse. It's frustrating of course that it is such a variable thing. I'm sure you have all felt the same way. Thanks for listening!!
