[tri-med] Re: New to the group/Bard button valve leaking intermittently

Annette,
I am very new to this (my daughter is almost 5 months and only had the
g-tube placed in April), but after reading about it online, here's what we
do:

1-2 drops eucalyptus oil
20 ml water

I dip a q-tip in the mixture and swab around the stoma once or twice a day.
This has worked very well for us so far.  Her stoma hardly ever bleeds now.
