Hi,
Phil is now doing all of his eating through his tube. He was able to drink fluids but now that is difficult too. His mouth is so dry, he struggles and takes sips of fluid to help. I know there must be another way and I know there will come a time when he just won't even be able to take sips anymore.
What is a good way to help his mouth stay moist? He does breath out of it most of the time.
Thank you so much,
Stephanie
