Yesterday was a rough day, in fact probably the hardest since his surgery stay. He was so nauseous he was on the verge of tears most of the day.  He threw up a great deal of this feeding tube and needed to have an xray to ensure it was still in his stomach after we pushed it back in.  Thankfully it was!  Most of the day was spent just miserable trying to sleep.  Towards the end of the day we were able to find a medication that seemed to help, but by that time his feeding tube became plugged.  We attempted to unclog the tube with coke but alas it will not budge.  He will be getting a new tube put in by this afternoon.  He also woke up nauseous this morning and threw a lot of the tube up, so he wanted to remove the “nose hose” (I have documented it below).   He was given some medication to silly him up and he went to work, and I have to admit, he is hilarious on Ativan.  Now he is pretty loopy which is a welcome change. 

Ugh

Throwing up makes nose hose escape
