Recovery: Week Two

            A relatively routine week with physical and swallow therapy appointments.  By week’s end, Cindy was venturing beyond a liquid diet and becoming adventurous with her meal choices: this noon toast with strawberries and tofu.  A bit eccentric and innovative but needed some Ensure (by mouth, thankyou) to top up.  She is now lobbying for removal of the PEG (stomach tube) and had to be convinced that it wasn’t quick disconnect. 
            Meanwhile, she’s been out thinning the enthusiastic plants in the patio and generating about twenty pounds of green refuse.
