Just checking in haven't been on here for a while. First my computer crapped itself got a real good deal on Amazon with new laptop, then the end of June into July a bad storm hit on the east coast alot of damage to our region, was with out electric for 10 days and I was scarred to death becausae I'm on oxygen 24/7 had a few little tanks for 3 days, and then my husbands brother got electric and we camped out with him for 7 days,that week was the hottest high humidity was a records highest, with the grace of God I made it. on a good note I passed my 2nd swallow test and got my 2nd feeding tube out 2 weeks ago I hope I never have another one it hurt really bad when the dr took it out. I told my dr I hope I don't see you again any wheres near soon and we both laughed lol. I weighted 205 at the beginning of my cancer journey I lost 75# but I've gained 3# back yeah. Wishing everyone a awesome day. bjw1955

    What bad strokes of luck
    and how wonderful you came through it. I hope to never have a feeding tube in me again.Hope you reach the weight you desire. It's time to get better and leave memories of feeding tubes in the dust!

    Bjw1955,

    While a big portion of the country cooks we are having cooler than normal temps in Oregon. I am glad you got every thing figured out with the high temps and the no power. Wishing you an awesome day back at you.

    Best,
