August 5, 2011

Update: Will is having 11 botox injections on Tuesday. They will not be using anesthesia to complete the procedure but they will use a topical anesthetic. "The science behind botox therapy is that the bacterium from the injection blocks the transmission of nerve impulses to the muscle. In turn, the muscles relax." Please keep Will in your thoughts as he will likely have some discomfort/soreness.

Additionally, the twins got accepted into the Mount Washington Feeding Program and begin September 20th. It's a 6-8 week program where, upon graduation, the twins will have the tools they need in order to begin their journey of coming off the feeding tubes. Keep in mind they have to prove they can live healthily without needing the feeding tubes for several months before doctors will even consider removing the feeding tubes entirely so this is no quick journey, but at least a start.
