I've now had my feeding tube for 13 years.
Many people knew me as #FeedingTubePaul due to my previous social media accounts on other web platforms due to my advocacy and how-to videos.
It's important to know your choices when filling out your living wills, esp younger people, like if you want artificial nutritional life support. COVID showed us that people of all ages should be aware of their options. I almost didn't get a feeding tube because I was unaware of what life with one would be like. I'm glad I did. It took watching videos of children born with digestive issues living their best lives, just eating differently, to change my mind.
Here is a +decade old short profile about the reasoning for my #FeedingTube from the makers of the Mic-Key feeding tube. #MedMastodon
It records the beginning journey for me. #Introduction
