Glad your doing good. My mouth stayed dry for 2 days and the first 18 hours I could have nothing but ice chips it killed me. Welcome to the losers bench. Hope you do great.

I'm glad your surgery went well and that you are moving around ok...ask the nurse to give you lemon swabs to moisten your mouth. They help.
