Imagine coming home with your newborn after a healthy pregnancy, only to find that she cries in pain every time she eats. That was Tim and his wife’s experience with their daughter, Hadley. At first, they thought it was just the usual stress of new parenthood. But the crying didn’t stop. She began refusing to eat, and her weight started to drop.
After weeks of worry and visits to their pediatrician, they were referred to Amoskeag Health, where they found the answers they’d been searching for. A team of specialists from our Nutrition, Feeding, and Swallowing program came directly to their home. They helped uncover the cause of Hadley’s discomfort, severe food allergies, and have guided the family through every step forward.
Because care came to them, Tim and his wife didn’t have to take time off work or travel to specialists hours away. Amoskeag Health made it possible for them to care for their daughter and keep their lives on track.
