Some updates
Lessee, currently Isaac's feeding tube is out. But that's because he's thrown it up out twice. He's had some digestive issues this week. Some throwing up, some diahhrea and a nasty diaper rash.
He had his barium swallow study on friday. he still silently aspirates on thin liquids -- liquids like water, apple juice, and the like. but he did will on all the others. he doesn't seem to chew properly either. so now that the feeding tube's out, we're gonna be just feeding him thick liquids and mashed up foods.
And we'll see how that goes. His not being able to swallow liquids properly sure does make things a little challenging. But hey, that's our Isaac. :-) But we're gonna try to nourish him without the tube. Wish us luck! He seems to really enjoy the rice thickened water i've been giving him today! Until his stomach settles down, that's what i've been giving him to stay hydrated.
Well, he's currently in the midst of a 2 hour nap. how sweet is that??
