Morning all - Im still here! Not too bad a night, quite a bit of sleep, but broken with bouts of choking, or just the noise from the gales. I do love it when neighbours dont lock their gates, so they slam all night? Not. Ive now been coughing that much, Ive pulled a muscle in my stomach, so now trying work out how to clear this rubbish from my throat, but without a heavy cough. Plus I need to limit the coughing as well, as the old artery must be hanging by a thread by now? Its a real catch 22 situation. If I stay sat up in my chair, it limits the build up and cough. But this has caused very painful pressure sores. So I have to recline in the chair, to ease the pressure but then I choke. During the day when youre awake its easy to keep a happy balance, but as soon as I doze off its another story, I start off sat up, but I must either recline my self or just slip down, but I always wake up struggling for breath? Once everything has cleared my breathing is perfectly normal, but as the tumour is growing it feels like Im being strangled. it is slowly squeezing my throat and it also affects my voice. Swallowing solid food is becoming difficult. I have to chew everything for what feels like hours to be able to swallow, but as Ive spent the last couple of years living on liquid supplement food, this will be my last resort. I do enjoy my food at the moment, and its worked wonders to build me back up. Today theres nothing planned as the weather is crap and am tired. So looks like cat nap day? Take it easy out there. Keep your heads down, and stay FIGHT THE GOOD FIGHT!
