#tw feeding tube

Not a request, but ive seen you mention in the horror movie headcanons that leo whispers threats to the reader, and i was wondering if you had any actual lines in mind for threats from yan leo and donnie in general (i dont think raph and mikey are ones to threaten)
Oh yeah, sure. I actually had 'quotes' in mind, but I felt too embarrassed to put them lmao. These are a bit low effort, but I'm tired and just took the first of many finals, so... Any criticism is welcome, constructive or not. This is supposed to be a gender neutral reader, so if I screwed up somewhere, please tell me.
(not just for the movie, just in general tbh. I'll mark movie ones in green)
Tws: Threats, mentions of a feeding tube, paralytics, general violence, yandere themes, mentions of kidnapping, isolation
-Ollie
Donnie's much more blunt with his threats. They are more of a warning, him just trying to get you to behave quickly. He doesn't sugarcoat it, or do the whole 'or else' thing, because he wants you to be certain of the consequences for your actions. You're misbehaving, and he's giving you a chance to correct your behavior. Let's hope you take it.
Donnie's example threats:
"Stop struggling or I'm going to inject you with a paralytic."
"I need you to eat. Don't make me get Leo to help set up the feeding tube."
"You're such a dumb dumb sometimes. Can't you see that I'm doing this for you? Do you really need me to figure how to perform a lobotomy?"(Less of a threat, more of a rhetorical question)
"Unless you want to be put in isolation again, I'd suggest you'd put down the knife. I'll let Mikey know you can't assist in the kitchen for a while."
"Did you really think that would work? You know I have to put the shock collar back on now, I can't have you leave my side."
"If you try to leave again, I'm going to paralyze you. Make the right decision."
Leo, on the other hand, is a lot more... Jokey? About his threats. He treats them like a quick fear tactic, and usually won't go through with them unless you continue to push his buttons. Usually sticks to implying things or to hold onto you tighter, letting you 'hear' the threat instead of outright saying it.
Leo's example threats:
"Oooh, did you see the way that guy's hand got broken? It would be such a shame if that happened to you. Stop struggling."
"I thought I told you to stay put. You don't want to get tied up again, right? I swear, you're just asking for it at this point."
"Keep your voice down. I don't like your tone. Just remember, my hands can wrap all the way around your neck if needed."
"I swear, I need to tie you down for everything. Don't you know how annoying you can be?" "Keep talking like that and I'll rip your tongue out." (example of a threat he wouldn't do, but wants you to listen)
"Aww, is the poor baby crying? That was nothing. If you continue, I'll give you something to cry about."

I have cool facetape for my NJ tube. Be jealous; get nourished! (Sharktape, ohahhaha)
In other news, after what felt like a long hospital stay, I am home and in charge of my own feedings now. It's going well so far. ^_^

Adrian (as previously stated) has an ostomy bag. he got it when he was ten due to untreated ulcerative colitis (which led to toxic megacolon), multiple injuries to his bowel, anal prolapse, and faecal incontinence
i'm also making him reliant on a feeding tube. he has separate G (gastrostomy) and J (Jejunostomy) surgical tubes.
he can't tolerate anything (any food or drinks) orally, as his stomach is paralysed (severe gastroparesis caused by his ED. I think bleach poisoning can cause it, too?) and feeds into his J tube. He uses his G for draining/venting, and to give medication.
yeah...

Found out today the acid reflux med I'm on twice a day CAUSES low potassium and no one ever caught it until the physician at my ket intake appt was concerned. My GI specialist has been threatening me with a GJ feeding tube if I can't keep my levels stable thru March all while not giving me a fair shot at doing so. Fuck them I'm so angry. Told them I'm turning down a feeding tube or at least asking to reset the 4 month test window once I'm off this shit

Hey people I love 🫀
I thought I'd do another update because some of y'all genuinely seem to care and that's amazing. Thank you. I hope I'm not a constant downer because even in the darkest moments I try to find some hope. Thank you so much for the well wishes and sweet things you all say. It truly helps.
I called my dad to check in and he let me know a few things about mom. The doctor thinks he removed the whole tumor (for now, glioblastoma comes back) but it had grown attached on an artery and when she woke up they found she has complete weakness on her right side (left side is fine), she can't seem to talk, and she couldn't swallow today so they put in a feeding tube. They'll work with her there to help and then hopefully they can transfer her to a rehabilitation facility in our city's hospital so she can be closer to the family. The specialist she sees is about two hours away.
My visiting relatives left today. I'm hoping I'll be able to rest a bit but... I can admit I'm pretty upset and nervous. The hope here is that they can help her recover some of her strength. I'm not going to say all my fears because I honestly don't like being emo on here and I'm trying to stay hopeful and not give voice to the Scary Things™️
I'm not sure I'm as strong for myself as I try to be for those I love. I want to be babied if I can be honest, as silly as that sounds at 33. But I keep trying to tell myself they seem hopeful- so I'm trying to be. I'm sorry it's not a great update, but she did make it through and they have hope she'll get a little better.
I hope you all know how much I love you! And I hope you're all doing amazing and having beautiful weekends! (I know it just started for most of us but ah well, it's Friday! Enjoy it!) Thank you so much for caring, it means the world. I love you! 🖤

I'm getting a NG tube placed and I'm really scared...do you or any of your followers have any tips for how to deal with it?
Hey anon!
I can totally understand feeling anxiety about getting a feeding tube placed, especially since it's something you might have never experienced before and there isn't always a lot of info out there. It is something that you will get through, and it honestly was really easy for me to adjust after a few days.
For me, getting the tube placed was kind of difficult, but not awful. It wasn't painful at all, but had a lot of sensory discomfort. The nurse had me sip water through a straw while she placed it, and that helped. For the first couple hours after the tube was placed, it felt really noticeable and like my throat was irritable. I had a hard time talking and even though I could absolutely breathe easily, it just felt kind of hard. Having cough drops on hand really helped, as well as drinking water and just taking it easy.
The next three days were kind of an adjustment. It still felt noticeable, but much better than the first couple hours. Definitely still have cough drops and water on hand, and also expect your nose to run a lot.
After three days, I honestly couldn't even notice it anymore and the only annoying part was that sometimes the tape would get itchy. I used duoderm tape as a base and that helped a little bit.
Other things that can be helpful is getting a wedge pillow to sleep with, especially if you have continuous overnight feedings. Learning to sleep slightly upright was hard for me, but pillows helped.
I don't really have any tips for managing the flushes or pump because I wasn't in charge of managing my own, but if any followers want to add on please do.
Know that all your feelings about it are valid, and also that the first three days are the hardest and you can get through it! I don't know how long you'll have an NG tube in, but you totally can still do all the activities you're used to doing. There's some things that will be an adjustment, but overall I started having a ton more energy when my nutrient needs were being met.
Please feel free to ask any other specific questions, anon, and wishing you the best!

How do I still continue to lose weight while I'm in the hospital?
Part 1: how do I avoid the feeding tube and the meals
I'M NOT DOING THIS TO INFLUENCE YOU. IT'S JUST TO SHARE MY OWN STORY. IF YOU DON'T WANNA BE INFLUENCED/DON'T WANNA READ THAT, JUST BLOCK ME. DON'T REPORT PLEASE. (I'm spending so much time on this blog that, I really don't want it to get banned)
The feeding tube:
The feeding tube goes in my nose, down my throat and straight to my stomach so I obviously can't remove it like that. But the tube is actually divided in three pieces. The part that goes in my stomach, the bag with the liquid inside, and these two pieces are related by another tube. But everytime the bag is empty, we have to change this tube. And to avoid having to swallow a new tube each time, the two screw together. So I just unscrew the tube, cut a tiny square in the cap of the empty water bottles that I have to drink everyday, and put the tube in it. That way the feeding liquid goes inside the bottle, and if I have to be in front of the nurses, I put the bottle in my pocket and put a laaaaarge hoodie to cover everything. And everytime they need to change the tube/see that it's screwed (they never come just to check that), or anything like that, I ask them to go to the toilet really quickly to screw the tube back. And voilaaaa.
The meals:
My mom often bring me diet coke (pepsi max actually) because she knows that I really like that. Do I keep the empty can and put the food in it. It's that simple. They don't watch me eat, I'm in my room. They just watch if my plate is empty when they clear it.
I'm going to start tossing the food in the toilet. I wasn't doing that because I wasn't sure that my roommate wasn't going to report me, but she doesn't care at all so it will be 10000 times easier now.
And if you're asking yourself how I can keep my empty water bottles, my can/empty cans and everything I need to hide, here is the answer ;)
Next part: how do I work out ?

they’d have conversations and in the middle kurai would just zone out then say “sorry it’s hard to concentrate when i’m getting nose-fucked by a tube.”
while it was upsetting to see Kurai get most if his nutrition via a tube, they were incredibly happy to see him happy, and a lot more healthy again! it was nice seeing his personality shine through again! ^w^

Medical rant 🐜
My gastroenterologist is always really good and thorough and I trust him a lot (mostly bc I’m 99% sure he’s autistic and I wish ALL my doctors were autistic tbh) BUT they said they don’t give feeding tubes until you’ve dropped down to an emaciated body weight and your kidneys are fucked up (paraphrasing).
Which. Is so fucked up? Like can we just… prevent that happening? I have to let my body be harmed first? And what about the fact that I have hypothyroidism/hashimotos and am not going to be dropping weight like normal people would from not eating. I’m still not receiving nutrients??? The fact that I’ve lost 15 lbs is astronomical considering the present condition of my thyroid. I’m frustrated. I have to let my body get sicker in order to get help for it? That’s backwards. Feed me now so my already struggling kidneys can get a fuckin break ay? Why would I be begging my entire team of doctors to be put into SENSORY HELL if it wasn’t actually necessary? Why do none of them care that I’m literally not eating food whatsoever? Is it bc I’m not thin anymore? I feel like they cared about that when I was thin.
Anyone know if the answers are the same if I were to try going the mental health route toward a feeding tube? Do they also wait until you are literally dying?
