Feeding through tube
My mother had commando surgery (wide resection + neck dissection + flap reconstruction usually) in May 2025 for recurrent carcinoma of the gingivobuccal sulcus.
• She has been on tube feeding (Ryles/PEG tube) for ~4 months.
• Now the goal is to help her regain safe swallowing so that the tube can eventually be removed.
Please suggest the next steps so that we can achieve the goal of removing the feeding tube and she could take the feed normally and how many days it takes .

Opinion if chemo should be given or not
The patient was diagnosed with poorly differentiated signet ring cell adenocarcinoma of the colon with lymph node and peritoneal metastasis (stage pT4aN2bM1c).
• Treatment so far: Right extended hemicolectomy (July 2024) → 12 cycles of FOLFOX + Bevacizumab (completed June 2025).
• Progression (Aug 2025): Recurrence at anastomotic site and abdominal wall, causing pancreatitis, obstruction, and severe abdominal distension. Biopsies confirmed recurrent adenocarcinoma. Multiple interventions were done including DJ stenting, sigmoidoscopic decompression, and finally emergency laparotomy with ileal resection, double-barrel ileostomy, sigmoid colostomy, and DJ stent replacement (18 Aug 2025).
• Current Status: Disease has advanced with complications.
• Surgeon’s opinion: Focus only on pain control and avoid further aggressive treatment.
• Oncologist’s opinion: Chemo can still be considered.

Multiple Myeloma Spread
My father is recently diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma and I was checking his sugar level yesterday by Glucometer. Accidentally, the lancet that was used for him got injected into my finger and blood came out of finger. As an immediate action, I washed my finger by hand wash and poured Dettol on the spot.
My concern is since the lancet contained blood and pierced mine, will I be getting cancer as well or diabetes?
