We got to the clinic nice and early. He got one poke for his IV and blood. He picked on a bagel here and there. We met with the nurse practitioner. I know Cody lost weight but was not too happy with the result there. Since Oct. 21 he lost 10 pounds. Part of that time he was in the hospital and not eating. Slowly he started back again. The NP said all was ok and ordered something we could add to food for calories. Seemed easy enough. We talked about food recipes, etc. Then Dr. K came and she said we have to do the feeding tube. She is not happy that he lost weight. I am not either but he is eating but not enough. We were made to feel like we were failing here. Very upsetting for both of us. Cody vomited 2x tonight as a result of being upset I think. He held my hand the whole way home. I know he is upset and scared. We left there and went to NYU for the psychological but we are both upset. Not sure about the tube just yet, see what happens by next visit, Tuesday.
Tonight we are in my bed and he is just relaxing and trying to sleep. Say an extra prayer tonight...oxoxoxox
