June 10th, 2008 - Tuesday

Dad had an appointment with Dr Fields'(his surgeon) today at 2:30. Once I got there my dad said he did not feel like he could make it so we rescheduled the appointment.

I fed dad an Ensure with ReLiv in it through the feeding tube. My dad seems to be real apprehensive about the tube. He feels its not right and unnatural. I keep explaining to him that if he will drink at least 4 Ensure's a day then he can probably get the feeding tube out.

I don't think he wants to do the ReLiv anymore, he said it taste's nasty. So I told my mom not to mix them up and only do the ReLiv in the tube until he gets it out. I think she wants this stuff to cure him, trying any and everything makes you feel better.

My dad is seeing Dr Suki in the morning and he is doing a round of Erbitux so we should be there for a while. I am going to try to get a list of questions together so my dad will be prepared what they may ask.

I think I might start taping the Dr Apt so I can listen again and transcribe them. You here so much, things get jumbled, and then you doubt. Urg!
