Ive spent the weekend in hospital having my feeding tube fitted, I was not expecting it to be quite so painful but I know it's for the best & hopefully the pain is short lived.

Tomorrow is my first day of radiotherapy, so please keep me in your thoughts xx

  • Hi Loopyliz

    Having the tube is a real benefit and you will soon get used to it. I'm 12 weeks post radiotherapy now and still rely on mine. You will forget it's there after a while.

    Good luck with your radiotherapy, it can seem like a long journey at the beginning but trust me, the weeks fly by.

    Hope everything goes ok.

Help us do whatever it takes, because we’ve never been needed more.
