SOME GLOSSARY QUESTIONS

[Guest guest]

Dear All,

Sorry to be so " new " in the group and anive about some things but

often when I read your emails, I get sticked because I don't

understand some of the words, concepts and meaning of words you talk

about as experienced in the subject.

First of all I want to know what is the G-Tube and why some of the

children have it? do they put the tube by a surgery?

What does IUGR, MILS and ADHD means?

Sorry to ask you about this but I am just getting to understand

something that will be familiar to me in the future.

Any other terms I should know wabout that are familiar to you all?

Thanks to all of you.

IUGR - restriccion de crecimiento en utero -

G-Tube - no se la palabra pero es un tubo que cirugicamente pone en

el estomago - le da comida al nino por el tubo. No todos lo

necesitan pero hay algunos ninos que no reciben bastante calorias

por boca y eso ayuda.

MIL - " mother in law " suegra

ADHD - es una condition - desorden de deficito de atencion y

hiperactividad

Espero que eso ayuda - mi castellano no es perfecto!
