I am glad to hear you are feeling more hopeful and that you are getting nutrition. Keep us posted we are thinking of you and all wishing you the very best and sending good vibes. Lorna
Thanks everyone for your kind words and thoughts...things are getting better. I got my picc line, and I am now on TPN as I have lost what muscle I had left. Hopefully it will be for the shorter term..I managed to eat a bit of an egg and some mashed potato today. My swallow test shows that things are patent...it is just a waiting game. I will progress as I tolerate foods, no rush now that I have the TPN. I feel quite relieved now that I am getting nutrition. Hopefully I will be home by Thanksgiving, maybe some day passes next week. There is an end in sight! Hopefully you are all having a great day...kj

Sorry to hear that. I can't imagine how frustrating this would be. You can vent as much as you want since thats what friends are for. Please keep us posted

they are open to patients of the manitoba program.they are educational sessions that help you through the journey post op.they discuss a different subject every month.We have talked about plastics,relationships,eating out with group.and different topics dealing with life after surgery.they are usually held on the first wednesday of the month at 6pm at the victoria hospital.
