Thanks malwicker,
The PEG tube was difficult to adjust to, but I've grown accustomed to it. I've gotten to where I bring my blender out to restaurants and ask them to blend up my order and bring it out to me so I can eat my meal with my family. I also try to come up with the most odoriferous blends, such as the sardine/brussels sprout/orange blend I had a couple months ago. Have to meet it with the right attitude. I'm a tubie for life. :-)
