g tube

[Guest guest]

hello everyone

We had a dr. appt today and got some good news. has had a g-

tube in place since Nov of last year , due to her heart condition.

After her surgery they told us it would be in place for a couple of

months. that was in Jan because of an almost constant sinus

infection we have put off taking it out. Her pcp told us to we could

make an appt w/ her gastric surgeon to get it taken out. I almost

hugged the poor man on the spot!! I was so excited I called the

surgeon before we got home. Things seem to going so well right now I

can't believe it.

After the Year we've had I'm tempted to wait for the other shoe to

drop. I'm not going yo though I'm just going to relax and enjoy it.

I guess that's one of the things lauren has taught me.the good

things are to precious to spoil worrying about what hasn't happened.

thanks

That is wonderful news Jo Ann. Hopefully got all of her problems out of

the way in the first year and it will be smooth sailing from here on out.

Joann,

I am late on replying, but wanted to say congratulations on getting the g

tube out. That is HUGE!!! We only had one for a few days in the hospital

after heart surgery, but I have many friends whose children have them and

have struggled to get the kids eating once on the tube. I know how thrilled

you are and how proud of you are. Congratulations!!!!!
