My J Tube is GONE!!!
Well, I've been off all tube feeds for 2 weeks, and I've held my weight. Didn't lose. So I got my J tube out today! It's almost like the end of the nightmare I've been living this last year. I'm almost afraid to breathe and think this may be the end of the tunnel. But I went on a 3 mile walk this weekend with my hubby. I'm back to work full time and feeling great. Now if I can just get the financial stuff figured out, I'd be so happy!
That's just great Kim!! It sounds like your body is mending itself and boy are we glad of that! A three mile walk must mean your energy is coming back too. I'm sure you will keep a close eye on your lab values and monitor that your are getting all the nutrients you need (like we all should) as your weight continues to normalize.
I hope this new year is very good to you and Henry!

Great to see that your J-tube is gone now and your weight is holding steady and your energy is returning!
Also great to see that you're now back to work full-time!
You look very good and healthy in your new avatar!
Hope to see you Saturday!
