New J tube and RD "L"

Well, another $250, and nearly 2 hours in Registration, we get to the Radiology Intervention.  The food port gets replaced, and we connect with  RD "L".  Wonderful Lady with lots of resources.  As a Info Junkie,  I liked her handouts!  Some  I found and posted already.  Here are links to things she handed us!
