It is horribly difficult to watch/support invasive procedures on your child. I think that you have to balance her daily suffering versus the discomfort of the procedure. Thus, a feeding tube might seem terribly invasive/moving backwards, but if it keeps her from vomiting it would be worth considering. I've always subscribed to the philosophy that Slurpees are magical and can be ingested for hydration when nothing else can. If Ashley is an ice lover she might enjoy one. <BR/><BR/>I am always so thankful to hear that you having loving and available family to help out. Please remember to contact your fellow Ladybugs (ok - I guess you are Dragonflies now) for play dates and support! <BR/><BR/>And, I would have LOVED to see the hiccup dance. That does sound like a silly moment!<BR/><BR/>Hugs to all, Teacher SusanTeacher Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02862473007864452212noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5801457485581160753.post-8656760082039974232008-06-01T21:18:00.000-07:002008-06-01T21:18:00.000-07:00I love reading your posts.
