A little good news.

Good evening. One of the doctors thinks George can go off the vent tomorrow )or try) after he gets a G-tube installed. Because of the stroke, he's been unable and unwilling to eat. Given he wasn't getting enough, a feeding tube is needed to help keep him healthy. He won't need it forever, but we got to get him eating solids again. It'll happen in time.

My nephew is fed 50% of his food through a G tube. I’m glad George will be able to keep his weight from being too low.

George is already w eight is already to low and he's board line anorexic. Has been for a while. He's been trying to change it, but it is what it is. The g-tube is only because Gorge needs to strengthen his throat before trying to eat solid food again.

That feeding tube is uncomfortable, but it's good that it's temporary.

My biggest issue is getting him to leave it alone.

Surely he has difficulties swallowing, the feeding tube is a good idea, so he can regain some strength.
