Thanks!

Today's feeding went miserably. The machine continued to beep, she was hungry and couldn't get the nutren in...turns out that her dobhob is broken. I am vrey fortunate to have a friend across the street who is a medic in the army. He came over to aide me in trying to figure out what was happening, we tried flushing the line through and came upon the clog. He was so patient and continued to work the line. Finally we heard a pop. Mom said she could taste something, started to gag a little--saline. Called the ENT on call, fortunate for us, he met mom on Friday and said to give her her meds by mouth.
I hope that they remove the trach and tube tomorrow. She is so hungry. No food tonight, not even that delicious nutren. I hate the smell of it, it reminds me of baby formula....my older daughter got sick and spit up--projectile in my mouth!! 17.5 yrs later and still gag at the memory.

I'll share all the info above with mom, it helps so much to know it's not just us.
