It had been four months since we had Jacobs feeding tube replaced. Tonight, it just fell out! It appeared as if the balloon on the end had leaked and become flat. The feeding tube stoma can close within 24 hours , so I managed to slide the tube back in the hole to ensure it stayed open. It was a lot for him to endure, but after an already long week, we imediately headed to the Cabell Huntington Hospital ER. Unfortunately, the emergency room staff did not have access to the radiology department, forcing them to put in a temporary foley catheter, until we could return during normal business hours and have it changed properly.
