Major setback yesterday he aspirated they think on the feeding tube but it may have been jelly, ice cream or even the water but they did discover that the feeding tube had become dislodged so it was likely that reason.
Dad was very distressed and both chest infection and temperature were very bad also it appears he has developed heartburn.
He was so poorly last night I stayed up the hospital and slept in a chair next to his bed neither he or me slept at all. He then crashed out about 9.00am this morning.
The plan for today is to gradually introduce sips of water if he tolerates that then maybe mashed up food and new feeding (NG) tube will be inserted this afternoon after which they may actually xray it to check it is in the right place and put him on the feed overnight.
Prayers asked that he can pick up again from this major set back up especially as it has once again disrupted the building his strength up as the eating has been interrupted.
Can you give the dose the update
Praying, praying, praying for you both. Hugs to you.

Still praying.
Prayers continue....
Praying specifically about the complications you mentioned that are hindering your dad’s progress, snugs.
May God bless and keep him in His loving, merciful, providence; give him strength, and help him to overcome this and be restored to good health.
Praying for your strength and well-being too. Take care.
All my prayers snugs.
Prayers throughout the day for strength snugs.
Prayers are with you and your father. Hoping for a comfortable day for him.
Hang in there, snugsie, we are all praying for you both.
Lord, this seems like a setback for Snugs’ Dad, but we thank You that are greater than any setback on a human level, and we plead your mercy for Bryan and especially for Snugs, that you would spare her Dad and raise him to good health. Give Snugs the peace she needs and help her to be able to sleep when she has a chance to do so. I ask this all in Jesus’ Name.
Constant prayers throughout the day for Bryan, and for you.
I pray that you take care of yourself as well, and that you find solace in knowing that we all are praying and that we care!
I pray for God's comfort for both you and your dad.

I hope and pray that they put the feeding tube into the right place so your father can get the nourishment his body needs to regain its strength. You are a loving daughter.

Just know that God will give both of you the strength you need to see this through. He loves you more than we do - and you know we love you so much!
Please God, bless Bryan with Your Grace. Amen.
