The nurse says "as needed". My mom (who is a nurse) almost lost it. She had to explain to the nurse how I was taking nothin by mouth and COULD NOT SPEAK. The nurse also didn't know how to o trache care. I not know what would have happened without my mom. I told them that we should get a discount since my mom did most of my tube feelings, wound care, and trache care.
Do not go gentle into that good night. Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
