Hi Margaret
Bianca is almost 29 months old. She has spent most of the time in hospital. Like Liezel said yesterday. Thanks for visiting home for 2 weeks. Bianca was on Peidasure for quite a well and did well on it until the dietrician change her diet recently to Frebrini high fibre to try and help her. It is hard for us to see her suffering. We can cope with her disability but the suffering takes its toll with us. It is encouraging to know that we are not the only ones dealing with this syndrome but I do so pray that a 'miracle' occurs to release these children from their suffering. Bianca's brother Nicholas who is now only 7 weeks old is 100% healthy. Extensive tests were done on him and he is just so cute. He truly makes up for Bianca's lack. But nothing would ever fill the special place Bianca has in all our hearts. She is such a strong brave little fighter. She was not medically meant to make 9 months.
Hope all the other special children are doing well.
Blessings
Margie

Hi Margie, How scary for Liezel and you!!! Denis is on a formula called Pediasure. I mix it up and put it in a container which I hang up on an IV pole, and the tube goes through a kangaroo pump and is pumped into his button. I do 2 feeds one in the day and one overnight. Those photos are just gorgeous! How old is the baby? Hello to everyone else Margaret
