Welcome home loser. So glad to hear that everything went well. When I first came home from the hospital, my mother made a fresh pot of chicken soup. She put the chicken and some of the veggies in the blender and pulvorized it until it was pure much and then put it back into the chicken broth. I can honestly say that it was delicious and was great on liquid phase. Just an idea you might want to try. Now get some rest and sip your water. Joanne

Welcome Home Carolee, Glad you are doing well! Now you are on the losing side, Yipeeeee. I so remember how hard it was to get in the fluids. I still have a hard time occasionally.
