Over the past couple of weeks, John has remained in the hospital receiving treatment for pain and muscle spasms. He seems to become stable for a bit then he regresses into a lot of pain. His doctors have determined that one problem is related to his PEG tube or feeding tube. Unfortunately, many of John's medications must be crushed and given to him through this tube so it's viability is essential to his well-being. His doctors did a thorough flush of the tubing but determined that he needs a new tube.

Tomorrow, they will put a new PEG tube in and although it should be a straightforward procedure, there is always some concern about pain and discomfort during the procedure.

Thanks as always for your thoughts during this process.
