G-Tube Placement Date
On October 8th, 2009 Gerald is going to have G-tube placement(feeding tube that goes directly into his stomach). It will be done at St. Joe's. We don't have the exact time yet, but I will be receiving an instructions letter in couple days. I hope we will have a successful surgery and no surprises. We waited too long already to do this, and Gerald is the best candidate for G-tube now. Too bad I was hoping that he'll be eating by now. I guess I failed on that part. I just don't know anything else to do to get him to eat orally :(. Anyway, I heard a lot of good things about G-tube. Some that had experience with it says it was easy than the nose tube... so I can't wait for it. Wish us luck and most important wish GJ the best of luck! Thanks.
