Colette, My Mom had heart bypass surgery in April of 1999. By May 17 of '99, she needed a feeding tube("peg tube") because she couldn't eat. They lied to us and said she was eating and that she'd be better. The surgeon's associate called me for the verbal o.k. to start the tube. She passed away in August '99, and I still have my sad, angry, and bitter days. Please hang in there, and take it from someone who knows. Love, Millie
