Re: swallowing problems


Sharon..

You might suggest to your friend that tipping the head down a
bit - chin relaxed and angled towards the chest rather pointed
towards the horizon - can make a significant and beneficial
difference for the lotsa PWPs with swallowing problems (especially
a help when trying to get one of those huge vitamins to go down!)
