Paediatrician and travel help

We went through a good list of questions today with Raphael's paediatrician. Just like me she is very happy with his weight gain and general appearance. Fortified feeding is still required but tube feeding is no longer being considered (which is great news). I believe that this marks the end of the "no NGT trial" and that we can call it an outstanding success.

We are giving ourselves a great big pat on the back for all the hard work that we have done but also not forgetting to praise God for this amazing turn around that no-one predicted.

After the paediatrician appointment we went to see the guy in the hospital who manages the travel support for assisting us to travel to Sydney. We were careful to clearly explain the travel and accomodation support that we will receive from other places because we don't want to "double dip". The hospital is going to be very helpful for us financially as they are willing to cover some of our taxi trips which looked like they were going to be more expensive than our air tickets.
