Week 5 - Feeding Tube




Well, things continue to be pretty messed up.  I am not going to say a whole lot.  The photos kind of speak for themselves.  The usual, week 1 on the left and week 5 on the right.  The burning on the outside is now very sore and itchy, but still pales to the damage  on the inside.  It had come to a point where Karen was no longer able to continue to drink with out major discomfort, so the decision was made to insert a feeding tube.  Although feeling uncomfortable, it means Karen is now able to take in all the nutrients and medicines she needs without the pain.
