So I'm sitting in the hopital right now. Just met with the nutritionist. They were saying that the aggressive way to handle the situation is a feeding tube. I knew this and last week was wanting it. I know its the best for her so tomorrow when the oncologist comes in, we will be request it but how common is it. I'm so scare we are gonna do something thats gonna make things worse. yet I know with out the tube its gonna be worse cause she's not gonna survive with now food. What I can say so far is yesterday they started her on a liquid diet, as of this morning she was keeping liquids down. Right now I've watched her eat a muffin and a half a piece of cake and is feeling good. Not feeling sick which is a huge plus. they of course have iv fluids going and actually had to give her blood yesterday. Shes still extremely week getting up and walking to the bathroom but hopefully the strength will come back with time. I've only seen 2 people here that had to have feeding tubes through treatment. can it make matters worse in anyway
