As you know from our personal journey with the boys, feeding issues can present in various ways, with numerous underlying causes. Pediatric Feeding Disorder affects 1 in 37 children globally. Many families face challenges simply trying to provide food to their children - which can be such a basic step for most children. Ezra, Shay and Lior all had minor anatomy challenges which have had a ripple effect for years to come, resulting in increased gagging while eating, not keeping food down, and speech impediments, among others. They all had a predisposition to be on the lower end of the growth charts, but due to their specific situations, they've always been closely monitored as we struggled to keep them on the charts at all as they've always been <5% for weight. Please consider the resources we were lucky enough to come across to help our own children on their journeys through childhood. Many families aren't as lucky as they lack the resources and connections to help their children thrive. Just a small donation will go a long way to help me meet my goal for Feeding Matters, to spread awareness and help families thrive along with their growing children.
