Guest guest Posted February 8, 2006 Report Posted February 8, 2006 , Your 's situation sounds exactly like 's. Ditto to all the information you provided about the feeding tube. We fought the tube for 4 long years. Now, It is the Best thing we have ever done. In California, it even opens up Nursing Services for the family. now has another 3 hours per day to play,sleep-in or do whatever instead of trying to eat. He is sooo much happier. Hindsight...... The medications are easy to administer. He can eat on the run with the pump backpack. No one knows he is eating. Now we no longer have to plan our day around trying to get those 3 meals into . Best wishes to all who have to make the decision. Sharon T. Quote
