Ben gained weight!

Well....we all seem to be feeling a little bit better after a cold made it's rounds through our house. Ben had an appointment this morning with the Growth & Nutrition clinic in Boston. The good news is he gained weight!!! We are thrilled because he had only gained half a pound since April. He was put on a calorie supplementation called Duo Cal and it seems to be working so far. (Fingers crossed) This makes the possibility of a G-tube more and more unlikely. Yeah!

We still have to do an endoscopy to figure out why his reflux isn't resolving. That really sucks because they have to put him out for that. Needless to say, we are very apprehensive about it....but I think at this point, it needs to be done.

Well...that is about all for today.
