The Functional Feeding Program at the Children's Institute of Pittsburgh

It's been a long, crazy summer, but we're finally getting ready to leave for the Functional Feeding Program at the Children's Institute of Pittsburgh.  We recently got our schedule for each day of the week, and when they say it's intensive, they aren't kidding!

9:30 am-10:30 am:  Speech Meal and Nutrition session
10:00 am-11:00 am:  Break for G's Bolus Feed
11:00 am-11:30 am:  Occupational Therapy session
11:30 am-12:00 pm:  Behavioral Psychology Therapy session
12:00 pm-1:30 pm:  Break for my lunch, play, and/or rest
1:30 pm-2:00 pm:  Speech Meal session
2:00 pm-2:30 pm:  Occupational Therapy session

We are hoping to have a room available to us at the Ronald McDonald House, but there is a possibility that there is not.  If we are lucky enough to get a room, it will be great, because the RMH has play rooms, books, toys, and nightly activities that we can keep ourselves busy doing when we are finished our sessions for the day.  I'm sure we may both need a nap before partaking in evening activities, though ;)

I will be keeping you all posted on our progress throughout our time there!
