I've now had my #FeedingTube for 14 years this month.
At the time, they still didn't know what disease I had and thought it was probably multiple sclerosis.
I've lived a normal life with the feeding tube, (outside of the disease that requires it.)
If people are facing the need for one, I always counsel them that anything they can do without needing one, they can do with one. It's just an alternate food source.
A lot of people think feeding tubes are for end-of-life care and that is the furthest thing from the truth.
Feeding tubes are for the living, not the dying.
