I went in tonight to flush Geoff's feed line and wouldn't you know it, the medicine port cap was loose, with the result of milk over the bed. Not the first time it has happened, obviously a lack of concentration on my part in not making sure the port was secure when I got it out of the bag.
Well Geoff's top had to be changed, and he wasn't keen on being woken up and the bed sheet I just covered with a towel, eek I will be sleeping on it later.
My apologies for the mix up it is respiratory appointment this week on Friday and gastro next week.
Geoff took a hand in his feeding today by doing the flush himself, and that included clamping the line then un-clamping it. He said to me tonight that he wanted to disconnect it in the morning, but I told him it would be to early and he would still be asleep, as it finishes around 0400hrs or a bit later as you can't rely on those Kangaroo pumps over a 10 hour period to be very precise.

Yuck! A messy night! I feed during the day [for complex reasons] and so don't have that risk thankfully! Not sure I would sleep with the noise of my pump anwyay! Sorry you don't find the kanagroo pump that reliable. Have you told them about that as they should not be so far out that you never know when the feed will finish!
Glad Geoff is doing well with the flushes etc.
Hope the appt's go well.
Chris
