My dad had done an operation installing a PEG (Percutaneous Endoscopic Gastrostomy) tube on his stomach as mentioned previously. Though my dad ate through mouth already but he has not been consuming enough. Well at least now the had already removed away the feeding tube as it irritates my dad and making him uncomfortable till he wants to pull it away everytime.

The operation took about 30 to 40 minutes from 8.30am. It’s faster than the operation installing the tracheostomy tube which took them 1 hour and 10 minutes for them to bring out my dad. Good thing about this tube is that all the food will be enter directly to the stomach.

On the 22nd day I’ve asked for the bill and it cost RM52k++. The total bill now has exceeded more than RM75k together with the ward charges and also the PEG tube operation and it has exceeded the coverage given by the Prudential Insurance. Luckily my dad has another RM15k insurance call Lonpac, which they will be covering my dad’s bill soon and also with the help of his cousin (which is also his boss and also he’s carrying a Tan Sri title).

Hope my dad would have less problem after installing the PEG tube. My dad is still depending on the tracheostomy tube to breath. When we try closing the hole and let my dad speak, he breathed very hard and struggling. So it will take time for it to be removed.

Everytime when I drive slowly, I felt tired but when I speed, I’m alert. So what should I do? Speed all the way? Just kidding. My mom will nag and scold me when I drove over 80kmph. I’ll be going to hospital now. Thanks again for everyone’s concern and support. May God bless you all. Peace out.
