Charm, I appreciate you following this topic up in a separate post. This is some important info for long term feeding tube users. I never knew I could lift things. I have noticed if I take out the trash and its heavy that many times I get even more granulation. It can be quite painful so I always thought I went over the 'approved' weight restrictions. Im still going to use caution but now Im going to take my kids bowling. Thats something I havent done for 4 years. Thanks Charm for the clarification!!!
