Swallowing Study
October 6, 2011 we went to Kids Therapy Spot to have a swallowing study done. Keelie has an issue with food sometimes. She will pocket her food in her cheeks and not swallow it. The therapists says she is not recognizing the food texture and refuses to swallow it. She use to love yogurt, bananas, baby carrots, and many other soft foods but now she won't eat them. The therapist had us order a few chewing tools to use in her mouth and told us to only let her drink with a straw. She also told us to give her something crunchy with her meal to help her recognize texture. While we were there we went ahead and did a speech therapy session. The speech therapist comes to our house every week. This time she met us there.
