All of this has been helpful! It's funny because most of it I'm aware of, but when you're in the throws of it all, you just don't seem to think of these things.
It's difficult to find non-acidic fruit as well. Banana and mango are pretty prevalent here, but blueberries for example cost a fortune! And really, most fruits are acidic. But truthfully, acidic or not, almost everything we try, hurts the poor guys mouth!
It is very uncomfortable. Brian says of all the pain he's so far experienced, this is the worst. Just doesn't seem fair!
Thank you again for all of your help :)
No, it's not fair. Blueberries, here, are a hell of a price, too. Another soothing remedy could be rooibos tea and/or honeybush tea. Not sure if you can get it, but we made aloe drinks with both - precisely because of their soothing and healing properties, combined with anti-oxidants. Anyhow, that's me, and best to you and, of course, Brian! xx

We've been drinking rooibus tea and trying several other suggestions here, but truthfully, nothing has been much help yet. During the night, his mouth gets so dry, that when he wakes up, it seems to take hours for the pain to settle, then the afternoon is ok for a few hours, but by evening, it's horrible again.
There's not much to say, I know, but thank you for the tips and well wishes. We will keep plugging away in the hopes of finding one that works!
