go easy at home, it will be hard to get all your liquids down but time it and you'll do fine!

Welcome home Spencer! It seems like a full-time chore to work on getting your fluids and nutrition in. After 3 months, I am finding it easier to manage. Things are more routine.

Take it easy and hope the tooting is going well.
