I think Amy's husband John had his PEG pulled then had another one when he was diagnosed with a recurrence. I'm not sure how long it was between when he had it pulled and when he got the new one--maybe it worked because it wasn't all that long.

Margaret--I hope they can do the port for you. That was such a blessing to have as I went through treatment (especially since I have veins that are hard to find). I see from your signature you're due to start radiation Thursday- I'll be thinking of you on that day. Have you already done the fitting of the mask and all that?
