I remember my mid-way point...You keep toughing it out Sone!

And don't forget to stretch that mouth, it will help in the long run.

If you want extra calories try some Carnation VHC that can be purchased through Amazon. It has 560 calories in a very small 8 oz can.

Just keep on using that swish and spit and swish and swallow...I know they helped me.

Don't forget you can request to see a nutritionist at the hospital...

Remember it's one day at a time and we're all here to support your every step....

Hang tough!
