I have watched your videos. My daughter is an intellectual disability teacher of 4 and 5 year old. You both are the best parents for Leon. What a cute little boy.
This was a very interesting video. I've never seen a feeding tube button. By the way your little boy is just adorable! I bet he gets lots of hugs and cuddles. You two seem like awesome parents!
You both are amazing! Leon is so lucky to have you both as his parents. Thank you for the video,. Leon is an awesome person, and so are you both. ❤️ from NY
I had it explained to me one time that it feels like an earring, no pain, just there. The red skin is not from irritation it is granulated tissue and very normal.
People may think Leon is weird cause they are mean but to me he is a human being and his ears are cute and don’t worry about the haters haters are going to hate love you guys I am not a hater with lots of love Charlee
Granulation tissue is quite painful. Just rotating the PEG hurts. However if 60ml of water in first it helps. From an adult with a PEG-J who used to have a PEG.
Calazime skin protectant paste clears granulation tissue an it does hurt, im an adult with a feeding peg tube an a alligery to tape an alit of meds but this works greatan doesnt burn like the other stuff out there for tisse build up
There isn't an exact time, but they send us a new one every three months but we have been told by his doctor if it hold water and works its fine to keep using it
Hi! Thanks for this video! I have a new adoptive son. I am asking that they do genetic testing for him. Do you mind me asking if Leon has a genetic diagnosis. My son is very similar in several ways to Leon. I told the medical staff that it would be very helpful if we can find a specific diagnosis.
