In the past 3 decades, I&#8217;ve watched advancements that have made EA TEF treatment more humane and more successful. Here are some of the most exciting:<\/p>\n<h5>#5 Change: EA TEF Online<\/h5>\n<p>The internet made it possible for the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.eatef.org\/node\/3\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>EA TEF<\/strong><\/a> community to connect online in groups like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/groups\/157730937619916\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Facebook&#8217;s Bridging the Gap<\/strong><\/a> and <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.eatef.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.eatef.org<\/a><\/strong>.

Thankfully, that protocol changed a few years after our son&#8217;s surgery. You can read the whole story at <a href=\"http:\/\/differentdream.com\/2011\/03\/can-you-imagine-infant-surgery-without-anesthesia\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Can You Imagine Infant Surgery Without Anesthesia<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n<h5>#3 Change: Feeding Clinics<\/h5>\n<p>Feeding clinics are a godsend for kids whose EA TEF treatment results in oral aversion and feeding issues. They are a godsend for parents and caretakers, also, as parents who can&#8217;t get their EA TEF child to open their mouths for any reason.<\/p>\n<h5>#2 Change: The Foker Process<\/h5>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.childrenshospital.org\/conditions-and-treatments\/treatments\/foker-process\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Foker Processs <\/a><\/strong>is a breakthrough treatment that makes a huge difference for long gap babies.

It was huge, cumbersome, ugly, and did the job. Modern G-tubes are small, tidy things with a tiny tummy button and cool syringes for administering feedings. If your child has a modern day G-tube, be very grateful.<\/p>\n<p>While many aspects of EA TEF treatment have changed, many remains the same.

We also recognize the barky cough (it truly does sound like a seal barking) that causes other parents to hustle their kids out of range of the germs they believe are the cause of the nasty cough.<\/p>\n<h5>#3 Unchanged Thing: Gifted Pediatric Surgeons<\/h5>\n<p>Gifted, highly trained surgeons save our children&#8217;s lives. Parents of kids with EA TEF are grateful to them every day we spend with our kids.<\/p>\n<h5>#2 Unchanged Thing: Worried Parents<\/h5>\n<p>Though the doctors and nurses continually remind parents that EA TEF repairs have a high success rate, parents like us can&#8217;t help but worry. Especially when complications arise. And they do.<\/p>\n<h5>#1 Unchanged Thing: Different Dreams<\/h5>\n<p>When parents hear their children have EA TEF, their dreams for their kids change. They dream of visiting their newborns in NICU instead of in the freshly decorated nursery at home. They dream of the day their babies will eat by mouth instead of a G-tube. They dream of more effective medications to neutralize GERD.<\/p>\n<h5>The unchanging truth is that our parenting dreams change, but our fierce love for them does not.<\/h5>\n<h5>How Have You Seen EA Treatment Change and Stay the Same?<\/h5>\n<p>Leave a comment about the ways you&#8217;ve seen EA Treatment change while staying the same.
