GJ is not feeling well today

 The toughest part being a mother is to see my kids getting sick, in pain, and etc. 
My boy is not felling well today. He did not sleep well last night and he was grunting as if he was in pain. He was running a temperature of 100 degrees F. I checked his g-tube site to see if that infected, it wasn't. Also, when he got up he went directly to the front door and he literally insisted to get in the car. I was telling Ralph that he is not felling well, and he wants us to take him somewhere (he might thinking the ER). Anyway, he stayed mostly in bed the whole day. I gave him some Tylenol and mylicon , it seems that his stomach is a little bit distended too, and I think these meds helps him a lot.

Feeding Pump: It works

We tried the Kangaroo Joey enteral Feeding pump yesterday and it works. Not only that it was very easy for Gerald to carry. Although  he doesn't want to carry the back pack, I still made him carry it so he'll get use to it. I am glad that we got that back pack, it so much easier now to go places and not worrying how to feed him if we don't have the pump. We have total of four feeding pumps in the house now. One was rental though, I already called the company that I want to return it at the end of this month :).

Here he was carrying his back pack and then later he was taking it off

now he's crying... I explained to him that if he won't want carry this back pack, he can push the pole whenever he want go. I think he understand the pole is a lot harder to get around the house:)


the rented one...

GJ owned this too. I got this from ebay last June 09
This is not portable that battery pack is attached to the feeding pump, so we never take this anywhere ;(

Gj owned these too. they are both portable...the gray one died on us last June (I got it from ebay too) and he used it for couple year.
The blue pump is newer pump but I got it used and it works! :)I love it because it is very small and light wt. easy for GJ to carry.
