They moved my feeding tubes from my nose to my stomach about a week ago and have taught me and the wife how to pour the smoothies in through there. They said that hopefully I can learn how to swallow and speak again in about 8 weeks and then that set of tubes can be removed too.
So maybe home in 5 days and then hardware free in two months...

In a year from now. After you're all healed up. You'll think back and say damn! I'm like a cockroach. I can survive anything. Gimme a Twinkle.
Can't keep a good man down.
You still have some work in front of you. Hopefully it isn't too stressful. Just keep thinking positive.
Think about how you're doing everyday.
