Getting the timing down.

George and I have a pretty good schedule going. I've been working on and around when he wants to go to bed. It might change the better he feels, but it's only been a month since he's been home. He's come a long way in that time. His peg tube feeds are getting easier and faster. It's not super fast, but it used to take us about an hour now it's under twenty minutes from start to finish.

I am so glad he is feeling so much better. He is determined, and that means a lot in the way of recovery.

He has a lot of challenges to take. I think he's handling them one at a time. At least with the peg tube, he can take his time on the eating. Focus on other things.

@MarieCoyle It's something I've just delt with, keeping us on a schedule. But, I know it'll be nice to not have so much to do.

Hopefully, the peg tube will be able to eventually be eliminated, he will like that and I am sure you will as well.

Thanks! I'm glad George, for the most part, is getting used to the schedule.

Yes, I used and still do hate his formula for his peg tube feeds. However, if I can get enough hight, then it goes down a lot faster.

He's been home a month already? Time certainly flies. I'm glad you're getting everything down to a routine. Have a good day.

I believe they are. He's stronger and his endurance is getting better.
