Guest guest Posted January 13, 2004 Report Share Posted January 13, 2004 Hi all.. I am having a very hard time since my sons feeding tube surgery over three weeks ago. He has not eaten hardly anything. On top of that he was on antibiotics until surgery then after surgery which he grew out morexlla (small amount) docs put him on a stronger antibiotic then he got colitis from the antibiotic so now he can not be on ANYTHING to kill bacteria in lungs....He has med every six hours for the infection in his colon...side affects of his new med (no eating,diah you guys know the drill) they have stopped his feeding tube since he cam down with the colitis and hes barely drinking two resource boxes a day. The feeding tube has only caused me more strain because he eats NOTHING..has this ever concerned you parents. I have heard so many people say the tube is a blessing and I am sure it is for some..I spend all day long making food for my son, ordering his fav chinese food but he wants nothing. I am disheartened ..I am sure we all feel this way at some point ....increased treatments etc. is 2 and half and participates most of the time but when he doesnt it is really difficult. Thank you for all of your support in the past. I am having a very difficult evening. thanks fo rlistening. Crystal (mother of ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
