Omg bet they are even more revolting than the banana or vanilla or chocolate ones. Shudder

the thought I lived on these for 45 days 

h 

Oh I shudder at the thought ugh!

They sent me home with a big bag of bannana, vanilla plus same in powder form and wee bottles of ensure compact.

I tried the coffee one in hospital as I love coffee. Wrong!! most revolting stuff ever.

Ive only lost 4.5lbs last week so I don`t know why they were so weight obssesed. They were showing my food tray to charge nurse, that really annoyed me. As I said I will eat better when I get my appetite back, I like my food and goodies.

I tried adding real bannana in the nutri bullet my daughter has loaned me, nope still tasted of chemicals to me.

I am dreaming of Paella and a cold Sangria :-) Oh yes and Churros. Now Im crying in my soup.

Take care speak soon. xxx

PS We have flipping snow!!!

the onky way I couldn’t get the ensures down little,tip,is to,dilute with bottled water ,added bonus is you are increasing hydration. Likewise the coffee  toffee and chocolate ones all revolted me .imcould just about do vanilla banana and strawberry especially when dilute. I too have a nutri bucket but everything tasted like chemicals have brought it out tomspain with me must try and use it,

paelle still a ni ni then ruce justbsticks in mynthroat can manage 2 churros as long a season I have chocolate sauce ,then the rest have gone cold so,end up bumming them .managage Gaelic cold potatoes today and battered prawns , but most meats are still sticking indream if yiu remains lamb s gambolling in way to my plate sorry all u vegetarians but I live a lamb chop .

alchol doubt if any will ever enter my mouth again last drink was a g n t out here last April thunk I have lost the urge to drink I haven’t been a big drinker for nearly 10 years and before then was onky odd glass of red wine or g n t. 

Onward n upward doe yiu keep taking the ensures I along with anchor 1707 called them bush tucker trials like I’m a celebrity get me out of here.

Dear Clara hope you are a bit better than you have been..I havent been intouch because I thought maybe I should just give you your own time to get your head around what you have just gone through...I just want you to know I think about you every day hoping that you are a wee bit stronger...your friend Dee xo 

Hi Clara,
I'm glad that your surgery is behind you now. It cetainly isn't for the faint hearted. Neither is the recuperation, so I hope that you are doing well.

Two weeks must seem like forever to get your pathology results. Hope they turn out well.

Kind regards,

Jlamine xx

Hi Dee,

Great to hear from you!

Been a bit up and down but I am getting there. Am determined to eat food. I am a woman on a mission. Taste is very off,did you have that? I was thirsty and opened a can of cola, ugh it made my glands go crazy and was like vinegar to tongue. So many things I wasnt expecting. Some foods like beef, cheese,salt etc just dont taste right.

Took longer to get over anaesthesia than I would have thought,but I had problems with very low oxygen levels so that probably slowed things up.

I had a look in mouth with an led torch ugh not pretty! They have removed palate right up to tonsil pillar.So I have a tonsil with no arch, I was sure they had removed tonsil. Stitches in tongue and palate havent dissolved yet either,so need to use saline rinse alot more often.

I am definately stronger though not back to normal(was I ever normal Im not sure) :-)

Keep well speak soon xxx
