Glad to hear the fever is gone. It may be difficult for your husband to swallow but keep trying. If he cant do water, try yoohoo it is soothing to mouth sores. Thats what I drank everyday thru tx. Even better would be the ensure, carnation vhc, or boost. Those tend to be thicker than yoohoo. Try the best you can to keep him swallowing as much as possible everyday.
Hope your husband feels better soon and gets to go home.
