Diana I’ve been treated many times through ENT (related to ORL), as well as Plastics. Also Vascular, Cardio thoracic and gastro departments, where required.
I have. Yes there are often some differences among hospitals around the world (depends on all sorts of reasons, like equipment, facilities, clinical skills available in the area etc) - although the core treatments are fairly universal: surgery, chemo, radiation.
Thanks Lise! Actually, there is a lot of fortisip on my menu. I have daily goals for how many fortisip bottles to drink per day, by mouth. It is a slow process but I must be getting somewhere; I drank the Ward’s remaining supply yesterday…
Aah I see 😊 A daily fortisip goal, go you drinking the ward dry! I imagine it's a pretty uncomfortable laborious process to do something most of us take for granted. Cheering you on with my morning cup of herbal 🙏
Currently "seconding that!" with a hot cuppa "Kurkuma und Kraft" herbal tea, which is basically "Turmeric and strength"....greets to both of you from Berlin!! 👋👋

Nick the video is bonkers! So fascinating! I look forward to smoothies and gutteral splutterings of the non windpipe orientation!
So interesting you are in a Plastic Surgery ward and not an ORL ward.

Have you been treated by an oral and maxillofacial surgeon? Interested because each hospital seems to have a different approach to hnc.

Aaah excellent work Niick! Love the photos and that video 😍 Purees galore, and no fortisip in sight?!

Good progress Buckey. Do they have a sloppy bake puree?
Have not seen it on the menu so far. I will keep a watchful eye out…
Keep up the good work. I like the drumroll for the puree. :)
