[tri-med] Re: pediasure

Thank you all sooo  much for your responses. I  was just telling my husband
earlier tonight, that i can't believe we have went this long with no
supportfrom people who know what we are going thru. It continues to amaze me
how special all of you really are! All of the responses has helped quite a
bit. He has done good with a couple of feeds of the vanilla. Like i said
earlier, I can only gravity feed him since i don't have a pump, but i held
it down as low as i could without him grabbing it and it took about 5
minutes longer than usual, and he didn't gag this time at all.
Thanks again,
Belinda  mom to Justin  trisomy 8 mosaic    and Destiny,Taylor,Jacob,and
Dustin (  Justin's other half :)  )
