Oh gosh, @grammyd. That must've been frightening for you to see your husband lose so much weight and require a blood transfusion. How is he doing now? Did he have surgery? How are YOU doing?

Colleen, he us doing much better. He still has the feeding tube but is now eating food by mouth and has gained 15 lbs back. We've been told he may be able to have the tube removed end of February as long as he maintains his weight.
I'm doing good as well. Looking back, we believe it all happened in God's perfect timing as the week in the hospital without radiation allowed his neck burns to heal some before continuing with the radiation. I believe the break and the feeding tube saved his life.
