No question is bad question,,,,,,,,

I remember the teachers were always saying that and now I hear it all the time, no question is a bad question, chances are somebody else is wondering the same thing.
So the idea for my last post was suggested by a friend and although I was hesitant to do it because my ultimate goal is to spread awareness not gain sympathy.  However, I feel that this last post really opened me up, I shared a lot of things I have never shared. Although I have not gotten any feedback on my blog I know it was read.  So this next idea came from one of my drs.at my last visit, feeling hesitant again but really hoping since I have put a lot out there since I started my blog, I'm sure people have questions.  The idea is to reach out to my readers and answer those questions.  So starting on this blog, I will take 5 questions a week.  Your questions will be answered on the weekend, so for this week ask your questions on the comment section and I will answer under the title And the answers are..

    Can I ask you a series of questions in interview format? This way any reader who stumbles upon the comments has answers laid out categorically.

SURPRISE

  So yesterday, a dana farber Wednesday started off as a typical dana farber Wednesday, a ton of traffic, a lot of attitudes, great people watching, and unfortunately a lot of appointments.  The different part was that the hospital went live on EPIC, still after being at the hospital for over 6 hours I still have no idea what EPIC means, besides new computer systems and large groups of people wearing blue vests that said "EPIC" congregating throughout the hallways of the Brigham and Dana.  As an outsider looking in there appeared to be a great deal of confusion and poor training.  We were running late to the first appointment so we went to the lab at DF before heading over to the  appointment at Brigham, however because of the time crunch the lab actually took us early. SURPRISE HAHA not the big surprise though, guess you got to keep reading:)   We really didn't notice anything different at the lab...

Food your friend food my enemy

So what to do when your fiancé is so exhausted from work and such he passed out on the floor and was asleep in less then 30 seconds, and me exhausted from battling this flare-up, but after multiple tries and treatments nap is a big negative, so perfect time to post. After a very long day, I am drained both physically and mentally, so I have decided to take a little road block, sending us back a little ways.  Back to before I had NG tubes, G and J tubes, back to before when I could eat real food and not rely on TPN( IV nutrition), back to when I could be an athlete, back to when I could be a college student and party without the fear that one sip of alcohol could kill me now because of one of my meds, back to when I was "normal" whatever that means. So I challenge you...... If you woke up tomorrow morning and found out you could no longer eat real food, what foods would you miss the most??  What restaurant would you miss most? If you wok...

A dedicated week

Sorry that I have been a little slacking  This article is a little late due to a very lengthy hospital stay. And so I have taken this moment to educate a little further into tube feeding. Recently I have been having a hard time with my thoughts and feelings and where to go next with this blog, I have had a few people suggest I talk about a typical day for me.  From the moment I wake up to the moment I go to bed.  My main concern with this idea, is that from the beginning I have said this blog is not for sympathy and/ or  attention for me, it is meant to spread awareness to others who may have gone through tube feeding, in the past, present or for anyone else that may want to learn more.  I have found a vessel, that can be used to talk about my life and a typical day for a "tubie." When you think of February 8-14, does it mean anything to you?  To most people it is just a regular week ending with the hallmark holiday ...
