Reply to "discouraged after takedown"

Spunkycat, TPN stands for Total Parenteral Nutrition. Total because is your only nutrition, parenteral means (more or less) injected (in this case through a "central line," an IV in a very large vein so the stuff gets diluted quickly in the blood). If you can't eat, TPN can keep you going. It's very different from some sugar in an IV into your arm.
