No more feeding tube.
No more tracheotomy.
No more panic gasping for breath.
No more IV.
No more electronic tongue monitor.
No more waking up every hour for vitals.
Cleared to take food (liquids only at first) by mouth weeks before planned.
Able to talk.
No more having to communicate by pad and iPad.
Still waiting for pathology reports that will determine any need for radiation.
But..home!

Yea!!! Been thinking of you daily, but didn’t want to interfere. By the time you’re ready to go out on the town, no restaurants will be open. What a world we live in. Went to Burlingame Fred Meyers . . . was like being in Russia. Literally bare shelves. Be well, friend.
