[tri-med] Re: G-Tube update

Hi all,
I had never heard the term 'bard'.  I asked my home health nurse what  
that meant this morning.  She said it was a brand name.  Other than  
that, she didn't know how it related to g-tubes.   She thinks that I  
now have a yeast infection under my breast which may also be causing  
me some discomfort.  Yeah!!

I do have to add water because the only thing that I use it for is my  
meds, all of which must be ground to powder.  They need the water to  
get them into my stomach.  And I don't feel the temperature of the  
hot water at all.  Besides, it is only as hot as comes out of the tap.

The fact that it is only two more weeks before I can get it out is  
exactly what is getting me through this.

Always there for a Hug and a Prayer!
