It's Swallowing Awareness Day! A day to think about that marvel of anatomy in your throat, the larynx. You swallow hundreds of times per day - should I repost this every time I swallow? No, that's crazy - way too many swallows! Swallowing Awareness Day! Hooray!

Amending all my research documentation to include my BlueSky handle rather than my Twitter handle. Really feels like the end of an era.

Researching Nasogastric Tube feeding decision-making and finding that so many interesting articles lump NGTs, PEGs, IV fluids, TPN etc. into one 'Feeding Tube' group, thus losing interesting distinction

This article highlights the absolute necessity for joined up mgmt. of acutely admitted individuals with PD, where their function (inc. swallow) can be so dependent on timely identification, decision-making and medication. An area where SLT often take the lead
