A 77-year-old woman presenting with severe acute ischaemic stroke failed a swallow screening test on admission. A nasogastric (NG) tube was inserted to initiate enteral feeding. She required multiple NG tube placements due to agitation with repeat malposition into the right bronchus demonstrated on chest radiographs. https://www.roneverhart.com/Reese-s-Halloween-Milk-Chocolate-Peanut-Butter-Skeletons-9-Ounce-Bag/
