Step 1 in the GI Plan... Check!
Sorry the picture is sideways! Daddy, Jonah, and Ms. Patty made an early trip to the Children's Hospital this morning. A video swallow study was on the agenda and is the first of four tests to be conducted in the next few months. We need to rule out the possibility that Jonah's difficulty with eating isn't caused by some physical anomaly. The last time we did this Jonah refused to eat for Mommy so the technician took over and shoved syringes of barium laced baby food in his mouth. TERRIBLE experience! Daddy says that this was totally different. Jonah was such a big boy and ate so well for Daddy! The unofficial results are that Jonah showed no signs of aspiration of any of the food they fed him (thin liquid, baby food, and graham cracker!) Hooray for Jonah!!!
