The Monkey and The PEG

Well, we have a date for the PEG now and after all the waiting it feels like it's come upon us all too soon. Monday. He will be in hospital for four days but this is largely for monitoring and observation. 

It's sensible to plan ahead. We've planned ahead successfully all along so far and I'm doing my best to approach this in a pragmatic way. It's for the best, it's a routine procedure and yet it feels like a marker for a new phase of the disease. The monkey's prehensile grip grows ever stronger.
