Swimming!

One of James' favorite activities is being in the water. Here are some shots taken in my sister's family's pool in Ayala Alabang ...





Unfortunately, we couldn't bring James to a swimming pool or beach as much as we want to. But, we make the most of it whenever we can :)



 Photos below were taken during our family trip to Puerto Galera back in 2002 or 2003.

At the Valley of Peace pool ...


First time at the beach ... yey, salt water and sand!

James Undergoing EEG

Nope, James is not having his hair permed :p He had a seizure episode last August 4 when our pedia-neuro was unfortunately out of the country at the time. Fortunately, we were referred by my sister to my nephew's neuro who advised us to have James undergo an Electro Encephalogram (EEG) to check brain activity. Since it was about 3-4 years since James' last procedure, hubby and I were surprised to see that the graphs are now being done digitally whereas a few years ago, graphs were "written" on pages and pages of large pieces of continuous paper.

About This Blog

Hi everyone! This site is created to chronicle the life of Gideon James Floresca , born a preemie on September 18, 1997. He has been diagnosed with global psychomotor delay and has the spastic quadriplegic type of cerebral palsy .  Look how small James was when he was born!  He has been "eating" via a feeding tube since he was five due to failure to thrive. From an NGT (naso-gastric tube) that we used for more than 3 years, he underwent surgery in 2005 so a gastrostomy tube can be placed directly in his tummy. In March 2008, we were able to afford a Bard button which made feeding him so much easier. He's currently 100% tube-fed with complete food formula. James at 4 months old It is our hope that his story will serve to inspire and encourage even families with "normal" children. Join us in our continuous journey of hope :)
