The PEG procedure was a success and after a few hours, Nathaniel was getting nourishment. It is very appropriate that he got the PEG this week because in this week's Torah portion we read about the Israelites in the desert getting manna from heaven. We have always called the brown liquid nourishment that Nathaniel gets manna because it can be any flavor or taste he wants. He is still getting the orange supplement that has extra protein to help with wound healing.

Nathaniel is breathing more without the ventilator. He is still getting oxygen supplementation, but he is breathing on his own.

הגסטרוסטום אנדוסקופי היה מוצלח ואחרי כמה שעות, נתנאל התחיל לקבל מזון. זה מאוד מתאים שזה קרה השבוע כי בפרשת השבוע לומדים על המן שבני ישראל קיבלו משמיים במדבר. תמיד קראנו לנוזל החום של מזון שנתנאל מקבל "מן" כי הוא יכול להיות איזה טעם שהוא רוצה. הוא עדיין מקבל את התוספת הכתום עם חלבונים נוספים שיעזור בהחלמת הפצע.

נתנאל נושם יותר ויותר בלי ההנשמה. הוא עדיין מקבל חמצן, אבל הוא נושם בכוחות עצמו.
