This cupboard used to be for food only. Now it’s for all feeding tube supplies.  Most of that stuff is for cleaning and caring for the outside of the tube. Then there’s Osmolite (the food that goes into the tube, in my case no fiber low fat high protein). And the tubes that attach to the Osmolite bottles to bring the food into the feeding tube. And syringes, some for putting liquid and meds into the j tube, some for pulling stomach fluid out of the g tube. And lots of gauze and q tips and saline for cleaning on and around the tube. Some of the gauze is also used in makeshift condoms for the drainage bags, because otherwise they leak a lot.
