Guest guest Posted June 14, 2007 Report Share Posted June 14, 2007 caitlyn had her video swallow test the other day, not good news 50% went to her lungs, can anyone explain why and how this happens caitlyn did make some great swallows so it is so sad that we cant try anymore but its hard for me and im sure i speak for kellie to and for all the other mums as to why and how it goes to the lungs does this mean there is not much hope for these children to ever eat but we all have to have hope, caitlyn does seem so interested in eating at the moment she watches us all the time and loves licking everything. it is strange but im having problems after everything she has gone through that this is one of the things that is bothering me at the moment it is so sad that she has to watch us and maybe wondering why we dont give her anything now it must be so confusing for her please if anyone can explain is there not a opperation that could put this right even a private opp anywhere can it corect itself we dont understand how this happens i know alex jacub has the same problem and probs do loads of you out there but i need some input on how and why and what can be done , if drs can do major heart surgery to save our little angels then why cant anything be done to stop food going to the lungs .
