Day 5

I write this with an extremely sore throat and neck and a popsicle in hand, cherry...mmm.

I don't know what happened. I woke up in agony.  My tongue is still sore and swollen but the fire coming from my throat is brutal.  The only plus side - I can sort of eat a popsicle.  My jaw is allowing a few more millimetres of access, thanks jaw.

For the most part I feel that I backtracked with my progress. All of my friends, boyfriend and family keep saying only a few more days and you'll be okay... It has been six days and it feels like years!  As a frequent flyer of tonsillitis, the pain of the throat is relatively the same.  Talk funny, painful to swallow - the usual. But the other side effects are what make it difficult.  I feel like I am in the same place as October 30th.

My stomach is constantly growling and I dream of eating food again. REAL food, not liquid foods or soft foods. This girls wants some spaghetti and meatballs STAT!
