Episode Description

Spit up, and even reflux, can be a common problem for infants, but what happens when it's more than that?

In this episode, Amrita shares with Katie, Certified Child Life Specialist, about what happens when a child's reflux became severe and leads to a three-week hospitalization, a feeding tube, and ongoing support from developmental therapists. This is the reality of severe gastroesophogeal reflux disease.

Listen to Amrita's story to hear how she has coped with this experience and how her son is now thriving with love and support from his amazing parents.
