If you don't have the PEG done, I would STRONGLY ask if there is any reason why he can not wait until it is really needed. Getting one in when it is needed is not nearly the big hoopla some make it out to be. He could very well get by without one. Many do. I just do not buy the "precautionary" approach. Get it if you NEED it.
