I actually love her being in school and them giving her 3 of her meals, although they struggle just as much as I do. I feel God wouldn't of given us these special miracles if he didn't know that in the end we can and will get through this. ((((((hugs))))) It's ok to vent and cry and yell and just get away for awhile. Please know that I completely understand everything you are going through with her feeding and you can always e-mail me or facebook me if you want someone to vent to that really does understand. Hang tough mom, you can and will overcome this as you have been able to overcome everything else that was thrown at you and your family when your precious Harlie came.Jennifer and Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13875785810920022992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4834405754301414360.post-1793252345998601632010-12-21T10:33:48.071-05:002010-12-21T10:33:48.071-05:00Hang in there Christy. Just like everything else ...Hang in there Christy. Just like everything else on this great journey we are on there are going to be major ups and downs. There are days I HATE feeding sessions, I HATE pureeing, I HATE tube feedings, but then you have a great couple of sessions and somehow it just gets better. I feel your pain, I really do :(<br /><br />We need to get together for some MUCH needed 'vent', 'girl', 'MOMMY-FREE' time!!<br /><br />Hugs,<br />DonnaDonnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14372563554937434493noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4834405754301414360.post-44864818058822925842010-12-17T12:29:42.306-05:002010-12-17T12:29:42.306-05:00Hugs!!

Austin refuses a spoon with food, but he will finger feed himself small things. When I see you fed Harlie 8oz of this or that...I cringe. My kid will eat 5 cheerios, nowhere near 8oz of anything and I can forget the purees. There are days, weeks and months that I want to give up too. So my dear just realize you are NOT alone. And Harlie has come so far, you can't stop now.<br /><br />oxoxoxJanis @ Sneak Peek at Mehttp://sneakpeekatme.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4834405754301414360.post-53312728283554291842010-12-15T22:47:42.345-05:002010-12-15T22:47:42.345-05:00Thanks ladies!

You are smart, you are experienced, you love your daughter to the moon and back and you'll keep doing what you have to do to help her reach her maximum potential. It's okay to be damn sick and tired of it some days.<br /><br />Hang in there .... have a drink, go for a run (not necessarily in that order) and clear your head so you are ready for another day and another battle. <br /><br />Much love,<br />AnnAnnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10834197308019791700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4834405754301414360.post-71692790412376995362010-12-15T08:59:48.751-05:002010-12-15T08:59:48.751-05:00How could you not be frustrated.

And so can Harlie! Don't forget that that little (big?) stubborn streak and strong will is the very reason Harlie is here now to battle you and test you to your wits end. It's a huge part of why I love Harlie so much!Suzannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02630428815700552113noreply@blogger.com
