Sam, I sent you a private e-mail, but just wanted to post here as well. The feeding tube will be crucial to her to keep her weight and strength up, I am glad she agreed to it. Get good instructions on how to use and care for it, and write down everything you can, so you can refer to it later. Best wishes to you both, keep in touch!
