As I said the specialist doing the endoscopy found no trace of tumors on my tongue or in my throat. So only great news on that front.

Even better is I'm now able to eat solids again and swallow small pieces. My tubes are still compressed by the swelling in my throat but it's reducing so able to swallow. Eating things like soups, rice puddings, porridge, minced meat all the time now and my weight is back up to 81 kilos (178 pounds). So that's a big gain in a few months from 71 kilos (156 pounds).

Doing a lot of cooking.

I still sleep a lot, rarely up before 9.00 and will sleep again in the morning and have a nap in the afternoon. No problem as I'm now retired, yes I still have the content store in my signature. I'm retired, but the business isn't.

So life is good and I'm very pleased with my progress. So are all the doctors and specialists in the hospital.
