We tried more testing, diets, and medications to no avail. At age 14, he went on Neocate and no food for 6 weeks and finally saw remission.

"So much information, although it will have limited use for me with my caseload of general education and Mild-moderate special ed kids." J.C. (Sept. 2021)

"Esophageal dysphagia, Managing trach/vent patients with dysphagia & dysphagia in neurodegenerative diseases, Aspiration pneumonia, oropharyngeal strengthening & hydration management.  I feel like many aspects were covered & research I've never heard about in the section New Devices to Manage Sensory Loss." K.L. (Sept. 2021)

"It is so interesting to learn how the brain works to help move our muscles, swallow, eat, etc. I have always had a hard time learning all the cranial nerves and what each one innervates, so this was a wonderful refresher course for me. It was enjoyable to listen to and easy to follow. It was most interesting to learn about how to complete a thorough oral mechanism exam. Usually, the oral mechanism part of an evaluation is something I gloss over, but since taking this course, I see a greater importance for it.  Thank you!" A.H. (Sept. 2021)
