Consuming Liquid

I am finding it quite hard dealing with waiting an hour for liquid after my meal.

 

I had found a way of dealing with it, chewing gum seemed to sait the thirst for the our, but I've run out of them and I am feeling quite desperate. I am so used to drinking straight after a meal. Still I will get used to it eventually or never run out of gum!!!

 

Wonder if anyone else feels this thristy after a meal?

 

Dad has bought me some liquid Aloe Vera, bless him. I mix it with fruit juice, no sugar added etc etc. It will be interesting to see if it makes any difference. I am doign as the instructions tell me, so fingers crossed it will help my stomach heal nice and quickly, so I can avoid tearing anymore stitches because that would be very bad.

I know I have been a lot more cautious since the pain and it hasn't returned since. I get an occasional niggle around a scar but, I know it does take me a long time for scars to heal completely, lets hope the AV does up the anti! It is supposed to be full of good and wholesome vitamins. A real wonder plant! :o
