Feeding Therapy

Yesterday I took Andrew to a Occupational Therapist to address his feeding issues. With the exception of his thickened bottles he refuses all liquids, purees, and table foods. Based on initial evaluation he was diagnosed with Oropharlngeal Dysphagia. Additional tests will be required, and he is undergoing feeding therapy to address the concerns. Please keep the little guy in your prayers as we'd love for him to enjoy the fine delicacies of pizza, donuts, and Yoo-hoo like the rest of the family.
