I heard from Paula Taylor today and here is a copy of her email:
ROSE, I HAD BRONCHITIS FOR ABOUT TWO WEEKS. I FELT LIKE SOMEONE PULLED OUT MY LUNGS.
I GOT A LETTER FROM MY ONCOLOGIST. HE MADE AN APPOINTMENT FOR ME WITH HEAD AND NECK BECAUSE I AM STILL HAVING PROBLEMS EATING FOOD BECAUSE IT IS LIKE PUTTING SALT ON A CANKOR SORE EVERY TIME I SWALLOW.
I WILL FIND OUT MORE ON NOVEMBER 13TH. IN THE MEANTIME I AM TAKING THIS MAGIC MOUTH DRINK TO NUMB MY THROAT SO I CAN GET FOOD DOWN WITHOUT THE PAIN. I HAVE LOST 10 LBS.
I NEED TO HAVE TISSUE INSIDE MY THROAT REMOVED AND HE WANTS TO SEE HOW BAD THE LEISIONS ARE IN MY THROAT. IT IS JUST ONE BIG PAIN IN THE TUKUS GOING BACK AND FORTH ALL THE TIME.
I AM SO GLAD TO HEAR THAT SAL'S SURGERY WENT WELL. I PRAY FOR HIM ALL THE TIME. PAULA
DEAR PAULA,
