I agree the PEG should have been put in before this point. This sort of thing is exactly why it's a good idea to get a PEG before rad starts even if you hope you won't need it. I don't really know all the different options for PEGs either but it seems to me there must be *something* they can do to put in a feeding device if his mouth is too sore and his jaw too tight......meanwhile, do force him to drink that drink. It may be hard but it is so necessary....
