I know its off topic but its totally preventable. Three weeks in ICU and a feeding tube 6 weeks and still inserted in my belly! Asperation pneumonia results from improperly swallowing food or drink. I would swallow my food and drink when rushing and while looking up at the TV! Some leakage into your windpipe is tolerated. But more liquid or food that may cause bacteria to enter in your lungs. The only alternate is to be only be fed food through a hole in your stomach! A pain in the ass rubber tube hanging tube that must be flushed and bandage change daily! I hope to have it removed next week at the Surgery Center! Don't look up or rush swallowing. Practice swallow downward! If you have prolonged abnormal coughing, seek medical advice! I survived everything but this almost caused my death! Eric The Survivor!! READ THIS!! https://www.healthline.com/health/aspiration-pneumonia I don't want it to happen to you and a $122K bill! https://www.htstherapy.com/prevent-a...ion-pneumonia/ I don't want this happen to you!! It can be fatal!!
