Max spent most of the day today without a feeding tube. Bottle feeding him when he can only tolerate about 1 cc/minute is a time-consuming task. Here, nurse M. is patiently giving Max just the right amount of formula.
Max was born in October 2008 at Georgetown University Hospital. After more than four months at GUH, Max moved to the HSC Pediatric Center in March 2009. He came home six months after he was born, in April 2009.
