My son has had a G-tube since he was 4 months now at the age of 3 he's sick of it and find ways to take it out but it hurts him to put it back in and it hurts me to have to hurt him so now he's screaming continuously behind the mess he's made. I want to cry with him! His gastroenterologist is about 2 hours away from where we live and our local er treat him like he has a contagious staff infection like they literally won't have anything to do with his g-tube. I've been in this game so long I told them to give me the supplies and I'll do it myself! They didnt have pediatric gtube supplies! Whyyyyy is it called a hospital if it don't have supplies for all ages? I could just flip but I'm calm smoke free and hoping he get over the pain of inserting his old button because I have to wait until Monday to place an order for a new one. I really hate to see my baby in such pain being that he doesn't use it anymore the Dr. Just want to keep it in for "just in case" purposes but he's older and annoyed by it now so there has to be an alternative!
