Paola, hang in there. It WILL get better each day. The first couple of days I used the tiny medicine cups I took home from the hospital. They hold 1 ounce. I made sure I had one of those every...

I was on clear liquids for 2 weeks after surgery. When I felt weak, I found Gatorade helped ( it had to be50% diluted perky doc's instructions). Also, I got protein from Unjury chicken broth which...

Fantastic! You are very blessed to have such wonderful friends.

Bessie, when you do your coffee, how much protein powder are you adding? I tried adding a full scoop of protein powder to my 1/2 cup of farina the other day for breakfast and it was gross.

No catheter or drain for me.
