my Dad had the operation yesterday to insert a G tube which would get him off the feeding machine, it was unsuccessful. They couldn't get the tube in due to blockages. He was quite upset yesterday as he had hoped this would bring him one step closer to going home for a bit before the end. It didn't work out. Today the doctor will be in to discuss what is next, there may be nothing. What do you say when your Dad says "everything will turn out OK, right?" I said "It will turn out Dad, one way or the other." I assured him that no matter what we'd all be here with him. Life goes on.
