Joined: Aug 2003 Posts: 1,627 | Ed, I have been banned from talking about PEG tubes. After my shabby treatment of Glenn I have vowed to never bring it up again!
Thank me for what I've done for all of you?????? Are you kidding me???? It would take me years and a dozen rainbows with pots of gold to repay what the members of this forum have done for me. I sure wish you and your wife could make it to the walk!
