Feeding tube awareness week is February 10th-16th. This issue has touched my heart due to a friend of mine. Her beautiful baby girl has to use a feeding tube for now (has since shortly after birth). I'm open so I'm not going to lie- when I first saw the picture of her baby girl with the tube in the first thing I could think is "oh that's so sad! I wonder how long she'll need it?" Now that I have been exposed (made aware....) to it for the past few months I don't even notice it anymore. The picture is from the following link. I don't claim any sort of ownership. Check it out, educate yourselves, and be there for other mommas instead of just staring.
