Feeding Tube Awareness Week

Feeding Tube Awareness Week – Did you know that there are over 300 conditions a child could have that would necessitate a feeding tube in order for the child to receive proper nutrition? Feeding tubes allow a child to grow, develop, and become stronger while often times receiving therapy that will allow them to one day eat by mouth. Not all children will be able to eat by mouth, this is where feeding tubes become the hero and allow the child a way to have nutrition and take medications. #themoreyouknow
