I found a link that describes what oral hypersensitivity is:
www.costellokids.com/therapy/oral_hypersensitivity.html
This describes some of the issues we have been facing with Brennen in terms of eating.
My research has helped me understand how Brennen views food and how food feels in his mouth.
It is still amazing to me that something so natural as eating food, is NOT natural for some kids. For some kids it is the most agonizing experience. This is why we are here...
I am thankful that their are therapists, doctors and nurses whose main focus is treating children with feeding disorders.
