.bransen handles all of it like a CHAMP.
along with all our daily CF medications..
We've had hospital stays for weeks at a time
.bransen handles all of it like a CHAMP.
we do our "boat rides" morning and night EVERYDAY for 30 minutes
and you guessed it...
.like a CHAMP.
but.
let me share with you the "proudest" moment during our CF time
Bransen has to take pancreatic enzymes EVERY time he eats ANYTHING.
Pancreatic Insufficiency is a major part of living with CF.
His pancreas doesn't absorb the natural enzymes and nutrients in food.
Which causes him to not gain the correct amount of weight for his age.
So because of this - for the last 1.5 years I've had to carry applesauce EVERYWHERE we go.
He wasn't able to swallow them whole.
So we've had to open the pills and spread them over applesauce.
 |
| a horse would have trouble swallowing these things! |
...well my friends - guess who doesn't need applesauce anymore....
he learned to swallow them whole!
Of all hard things that this little three year old has to do this year
this makes me the most proud!
