Feeling good

And

it is a good feeling to know that there is light at the end  of the tunnel.  Please remember to take care of yourself after the hernia surgery.  It is so easy to reach out and pick something up and oops remember that there is a limit on what you should be doing.  Enjoy your day.

Could be the pain meds talking a little although I am only taking half of what they prescribed . But you are right there is so much I want to do but need patience, which I have never been a good student of, but am learning. Thanks teach - have a great weekend,

Roar,

It is always good to hear the words “getting back to normal” from a fellow H&N member.  At 7 months I was welcomed back into the eating world (good bye smoothies, you were fun).

We are almost like birds learning to fly; I can eat, I can drink, I can swallow, I can taste.  It truly is the simple things in life which are important.

Roar on,

Matt

Seems like I have been from hell and back- I have learned to like things I used to not like , and not like things I used to love. When I felt the lumps around my groin area I was sure the cancer spread and my story was written. Never really knew exactly what a hernia was, but let me tell ya, when they said that is what I have it was the best news in the world. It's a little painful but nothing compared to the radiation burns in my mouth During treatment. I am so looking forward to getting back to the gym and regain some of my strength that I can hardly wait. Gentlemen like you as we'll as the ladies in this room have given me so much inspiration to give 110% ever day. I still like my smoothies, insure and veggie shakes. Don't know if I will ever give them up.

Stay strong Matt, you are an inspiration to all of us survivors,

Ralph
