Swallowing: Good News

Early results from a barium swallow test show that Mom is swallowing liquid into her stomach, and not into her lungs. Therefore, her Doctor has ordered a simple diet for her, which she can ingest by mouth. !! This is very big news indeed, as Mom was a serious candidate to have a stomach tube for life. This has all happened within the last two hours. This info comes second hand, from Dad. I will try to find more detail, and first hand detail, for a future update.
