Not Yet


Things for Jon are still on the downturn.  The ulcers in his mouth are increasing and I am assuming the ones in his throat are too as he is complaining of increased pain there as well.

The "magic mouthwash" works...but only short term.  It numbs his mouth for about a half hour and he can only take it four times a day.  This means he spend the other 22 hours a day miserable.

He is taking 4 ibuprofen at a time and the doctor has prescribed some kind of pain medication that I've never heard of before. I need to go pick it up soon.

Hopefully, things will start getting better for him soon...I absolutely hate seeing him this way.
