'Happy Seven Months Kaden'

This time last year we found out how ill our unborn child was.We found out at our 18 week scan.The news and outlook was very bleak and to think 1 year on what our special boy and our family has faced and went through is quite surreal.I remember scouring the net looking for information on Kadens condition and thinking why us.But thankfuly Kaden is at the other side of the hill and doing well - apart from the feeding thing.We know it's going to be a slow process but one day hopefuly Kaden will eat oraly with no struggle.Kadens new thing when feeding is keeping his mouth firmly closed when he sees the spoon heading towards him.With a bit of a struggle he will swallow what he has in his mouth although he does gag when he feels the food at the back of his throat.Thats where his fundo has done the trick as before when he gagged his whole feed would come up - now Kaden never brings anything back up.We feel so blessed to have a happy healthy baby 1 year on from our devestating news.And hopefuly Kaden will continue from now on to go from strength to strength.The message here is 'Never give up hope'.
