Life with MND

[matthew55]

I spend all day trying to get my mouth dry yet I spend all night wishing it wet. 🤔

[Graham]

Now that you mention it, I too note the irony, 10 years later. I'm gutted I didn't realise that before. 0-1.

I was going to suggest sucking sweets at night but you'd have to be careful in case of choking. 🤤

[Ellie]

Biotene Dry Mouth gel, a lifesaver.

Even available on Amazon, I checked 😍

[matthew55]

I use that but no matter how much I use I still end up dry. I'm a martyr to my tounge 😄 x

[Ellie]

Does your mouth open when you're asleep?

Maybe a chin strap would solve the issue (admittedly a strang look!)

[matthew55]

Since my nose was broken when I was little my nose gets stuffed up when I'm in bed. Sadly I cannot use that. x

[denise]

I was going to say I bet snoring dries your mouth out! Lovely picture. Now we know what Matthew looks like in bed 😁

[matthew55]

I haven't snored since loosing all my weight, oh and I have ordered a chin strap. Try anything me. 😉x

[Ellie]

oh and I have ordered a chin strap. Try anything me. 😉x

Oh you're hilarious Matthew - never change 😍

[matthew55]

It's arrived and later tonight I will be wearing it so wish me luck. 😄x

[Ellie]

Hope you're more of a Sleeping Beauty and not a Homer Simpson 🤞🤞

Best of luck 😘

[denise]

Cant wait to hear how it all went. ☺

[matthew55]

Managed half a night. It felt very odd but I will persevere 😄x

[Ellie]

And how was the Sahara mouth when it was on?

It felt very odd

Says the man with a hole in his belly 🤣🤣🤣
