As you can see ,the recent posts validate my position that the majority of OCF just cannot understand what your father and I feel. Please let him know that he is not alone in his feelings. We have had posters get the PEG "just in case" and they never need it. People vary and this will not be the last time a majority dismiss the needs of a minority. Probably a good thing your father does not post,,or else he might react as I did and relaunch the PEG wars. In a way, I am glad that I did not find OCF when I was getting my first treatments since I probably would have dismissed this wonderful caring community as narrow minded bigots unable to acknowledge that many doctors advocate against a PEG. As it was, I could say, well it worked great for me and that's a fact
Of course, it turns out that the minority of us who went thru without a peg were mostly gentle souls who did not want to cause dissension. So I spoke up loud enough for all of us
