In addition to the magic mouthwash and bicarb solution, they also used Gelclair three times a day in the hospital. One nurse told us that the magic mouthwash reduces the pain, but that the Gelclair also helps to heal the sores???

It was one of the times Mike did not really eat or even drink that much - just ice chips for a day or two, hope they go away soon! We're staying at the condo until we move to Hope Lodge on Friday, we'll miss the two rooms, the location and the gym that Mike has been using.

Be well
Debbie
