My first craving for anything.

I suddenly wanted ginger ale. So I basically swished a bunch around in my mouth, spat most of it out, and took two teeny little swallows. I figure ginger ale won’t hurt me much as long as I only swallowed such a small amount, smaller than the amount of acid I dump out of my stomach every few hours.

I think this happened because I was at the emergency room and didn’t start my feeding until almost twelve hours late, and didn’t get any water in my feeding tube either, and my mouth was terribly dry, and before I knew what I was doing, I just grabbed the stuff since I was near the fridge anyway. Now I feel fine and don’t crave anything at all. It was just a weird sudden thing.
