Dear Stacey, I'm sorry that you are having such a hard time. Would your husband agree to a bolus feeding tube which goes right into the stomach? My husband has one and people are not even aware that he has one. If your husband feels light-headed and sick, it is possible that he is dehydrated. Can the RO make him go in for IV's?

Talk to your husband and ask him what HE can do to help himself heal and what goals he can set for himself. Let him know that you will be there to assist him to reach his goals. He can take control of that part of his life and prove to the doctors that he is man enough to get well.
