My thoughts are that you all seem to have made the Peg decision. I had no choice and due to a previous surgery, I wasn't a candidate for this. I say do what is needed to maintain your body and mind as close to normal as possible. It's funny what a good mind can do for the rest of your body.

Since posting this. UPMC, Pittsburgh, Oct 2011 until Jan. I averaged about 2 to 3 surgeries a week there. w Can't have jaw made as bone is deteroriating steaily that is left in jaw. Mersa is to blame. Feeding tube . Had trach for 4mos. Got it out April.
