Liz, what a beautifully worded post. To that we all say """THANK YOU""". For I am sure in all the posts that you have made--you helped some of us along the way. It is nice to hear that you have helped someone in whatever fashion. Hooray for your mum as well. I too am learning the speech & swallow. It is tough, again, but I have to do it. One thing about this disease, once it is cut out, radiated and chemo-ed, if that is even a word, there is still so much that the victim has to do to continue the fight. It never ends it seems. Getting better is within each individual...The pain is never done, the work is never done, we are never done. Thank you Liz, for letting us know that we are doing a great job thru all our pain and suffering....Always, Vicki Lynn

Hi Liz

Best wishes for your mum's recovery
