Hi Jeff!! Thank you again for your input and your advice and support throughout my laryngectomy ordeal. I'm on my way to healing and adjusting to a little different lifestyle. I thought maybe I could get some advice or tips on recovery. Right now swallowing is my issue. I'm getting soft foods down but it's not that enjoyable. I just want to swallow normally again . Does anybody know if it just takes a little time?? It seems to be getting better. It's only been 72 hours since I had my feeding tube removed and my swallow test. Maybe I'm just too impatient. Thanks for the well wishes. If anybody has any tips for me please reply. I'd appreciate them.

Hey Mark, just checking in. A few more days have passed since you last wrote. Are things getting better with swallowing, mucus control and eating?
