As an individual I stood alone.

Hey @GaryLariviere1 how are you feeling? Have you seen the GP?

I went in the hospital, they found I had a touch of pneumonia. Being sick caused more spasticity and triggered small panic attacks which made it look like I could not chew. Though most of the staff was good, their lack of personally knowing about CP made it a hassle. Thank God my PCA came when she could, some were amazed how easily she took care of me.
I saw my GP afterwards while still taking an antibiotic, I'll be going for a follow up in 2 weeks and am much better.
