Ben in bath October 2005


This is at 10 months old with the monster costume he looked normal size but at ten months old and only 10 lbs he was way off the growth chart. You can tell how small he was in this picture. We were finally able to get the Dr. to agree it was time for a tube feeding. He only eats small tastes of food by mouth. And would have nothing to do with a bottle. Britt was so tired from feeding him every 2 hours she just couldn't go anymore. But she had given him 8 months of breast feeding this was a miracle after all he had been through. Most nurses and Dr's didnt think he would leave the hospital the first time without a tube feeding.
