Answer to feeding prayers

Very exciting news! The day before Zeke's G-tube was scheduled to be placed, the speech therapist tried a new nipple called a Haberman. Haberman nipples are often used with babies with cleft lips and palates--you squeeze the milk directly into their mouths and they simply swallow. We tried this nipple with Zeke and he did GREAT! He's taken all bottles every since! So the surgery to place the G-tube has been canceled--praise God--and we should be able to go home very soon! :-)
