Taste Therapy

Below are the stages of taste therapy as enjoyed by Gabe.


Step 1- Suck some milk off of a sponge. Yummy! Gabe was eating/sponging maybe 5-10cc's from his 45cc meal during the past month.







Step 2- Take it like a man from the bottle! Right now Gabe is sucking down 15cc twice a day out of a 60cc meal.






We think mom enjoys the taste therapy just as much as Gabe does!

  2. I just have the biggest smile on my face. ALL the new pics are precious. He is getting SO big. He looks precious in all his little outfits. That dog doesn't have anything on him anymore!! Thanks for sharing, I loved it!! We are continuing to pray and hopefully God will heal his heart and lungs soon and let him be at home enjoying mom and dad!!

    Love Steph

  3. Wow!!! You can really see Gabe's growth, especially how his legs have filled out. That milk is doing its job...It is a good thing that you have a whole deep freezer full of it. Grandpa & I REALLY enjoyed holding Gabe for the first time this weekend. Gabe is absolutely beautiful. (handsome I mean) Thanks for sharing your precious "cuddle" time.
