Child does not want g-tube removed

That was a great article! You're going to blow them away in nursing school. And your girls are lucky to have a great mom.

I am going to have to be your study/lab partner in class, or just sit close by....

I am not a mom but I am a pediatric nurse so I am going to give my worth. Do what they say to do with pacifiers and take her to build a bear and have it sewn inside (after its cleaned or if its a mic button use a new one) that way she will have a celebration toy and tube with her. It is a part of her and its fear of the unknown. You did the best you could at explaining it not really knowing at the time what the outcome would be. Good Luck
