[tri-med] Gtube surgery

Hi all - I haven't been able to write for a while since I have gone back to 
work part time.  Hope is having surgery soon - on the 29th to have a G-tube put 
in and have her cleft lip repaired.  I am so nervous and feel like all the 
drs involved don't really understand her situation.  How does this all work - 
with the anesthesia do they put her on oxygen - we are trying to figure out 
what 
to do about the current DNR right now - I am so overwhelmed with so many 
decisions to make.  How soon can she feed through the Gtube after the surgery?  
Does it hurt her?  If anyone can help with these questions that would be great 
- 
hope that all is well with everyone
