Today is a good day!

Cheers! Celebrating the cherished moments! We have had three good days in a row of swallowing; not perfect, but much better. I have made some changes in how I am preparing food, so thank you to all of my friends here for the input and ideas.

A fancy glass can change one’s mood - she is all smiles sipping her cranberry juice this morning.

I may have pushed the panic button the other day with her swallowing —- realizing that fatigue can really take center stage and create a ripple effect in other areas. Damn disease.

Hugs to you all! - xo Kim

Small pleasures. Well done.My husband has not fallen for a few days either but I can hear him making new swallowing noises so I think he is going to enter a new phase sadly.

Big hugs to you and your Mum.

Really glad for your Mum. Kim, please remember your tiredness can have just the same effect. You need more and more rest as things are getting harder. I know you know that, but as we all know, knowing is completely different than doing!!!!!Sending big hug and much love

Lots of love
