I should also update on Braden since I've changed our blog name from "Braden's Story" to "Our Family Story". Maybe it's just my need to tie up the loose ends but here it is :
Braden has been medicine free and thickener free for a whole year now!! Wow, it is so great and such a blessing to be able to say that. I knew that when and if the time came that he would be at the stage to stop his med's and his Thick-it that we would hardly remember going through that time. For the most part it's true but there are times when we have sharp memories about those often trying years of tube feeding and swallow studies and doctor appt's. We are SO thankful that we can now be in a time where he is doing so well and that he has no memory of anything he went through. He was always a real tropper through it all and thankfully we have plenty of pictures to show him when he is older to remind him when he doesn't think we do enough for him that we really ARE great parents :)
I think it is also a nice time of year to be able to celebrate the "anniversary" of his medicine free days. It's a time of year filling us with hope and blessings and love and as always the gift of His Son is an amazing reminder of why we have that Hope.
Thank you to all of you who have given us such support over the years with our little guy! He is a true blessing in our family!
