5-year-old Audrey was born with her lungs connected to her stomach and an incomplete esophagus (Long Gap EA/TEF or Esophageal Atresia). After two big surgeries and 142 days in the NICU in Utah, Audrey finally moved home but has since needed much more surgery, now in Boston. Much of her food still comes through a tube directly into her stomach, and she has had many procedures to help her swallow food, but she is thriving today. Thank you for blessing us with your love and prayers.

My Mom and Dad are here for a week!!!! Audrey continues to wean off her sedatives and painkillers, and her bad reflux is forcing us to keep her on a steady slow drip of milk through her G tube rather than bolus "meals", but little by little she is progressing toward being able to thrive outside of the hospital.
