You prepared as best as you could for the procedure. You followed your doctor's advice to the letter, and to your relief, the treatment went well.

Each year, medical treatments leave millions of patients unable to eat normally. Most hospitals deal with this problem simply by puréeing whatever food they are cooking. Needless to say, the result is not very appetizing, so many people refuse to eat, making it impossible to obtain adequate nutrition, maintain a healthy weight, and help the body heal.
