Ok, so I'm still in early days post op, but I just had a dream about being force fed mush. So I started thinking. What happens, if someday we're in long term care and we need feeding assistance. I've seen first hand how quickly people are fed, relatively large portions. Larger than our new tummies can handle. I have to eat SO slowly so I don't throw up right now. Just broth!! At my gramma's nursing home, staff are in a hurry and rush people through meals. Hopefully we never have to worry about it, but what if one day we can't speak or feed ourselves...and still have tiny tummies. People get old...y'know.....? It's random, but I didn't think about it before now.

Cool' date=' which one. I love cheeseburgers with diet soda![/quote']

If we get old and need feeding tubes???

I will tell them to fill my tube with a nice cake and ice cream mixture

Grammy, thanks for your comments on the thread. I guess I still don't understand how it's a joke to say 'you might luck out and die when you're 30' (after assuming I'm 25) and NOT a joke to say the same about being 60, when you're 59...? Seems a little strange as several others didn't seem to get the joke either... but that's life. Long long looooong life. After all, isn't a long life why we're all here, getting sleeves in the first place?? Happy to hear you put the kleenex away.

Laura-ven.... Where's your chat on cheeseburgers and does anyone know how to close your own thread? This one took a bizarre turn. Is it a full moon....?

Lol... There are cheeseburgers everywhere on these threads!

Don't worry I think everyone is happy and made up

Listen I step in it at least once a day! Sometimes on accident and sometimes on purpose
