Hi there,
Not sure if you all know about this already, but I wanted to post that PAPAYA JUICE has been our best friend since mom's diagnosis. It was recommended by our ALS Society representative and I don't know how we would have managed without it.
When mom gets coughing fits from the phlegm a bit of papaya juice cuts right through it. It also helps her swallow pills. She has some in a few locations around her room that we refresh all the time so she can sip it as needed. I get a brand called Ceres (I think it's technically a blend of pear and papaya).
In case that's helpful...
