Cuban Keith,

Of course U.S. miles are bigger, and longer and tougher! lol

I got thru w/o a PEG because 1. I was given the option of getting one or not; 2. I was stubborn; 3. I was stupid and 4. They made me get a nasal tube 2 weeks post Tx which I used for 2 weeks and it saved my butt! Now knowing all of this I still wouldn't get one today but I would have allowed them to install the nasal tube sooner.
