Hello everyone!  My little Abby and I have been having a knock-down,
dragged-out battle with green slime and now it seems, insulinoma.  It
has been over a month and two hospital visits (costing well over $600.00
I may add) and I am still syringe feeding....unfortunately.  Most feedings
I have help from my daughter or from my friend Dave who volunteers to come
over and hold her, but there are a number of times when I have to do it
alone.  I dread the alone feedings because they never go as well.  I scruff
her, but she still struggles and I have food all over me.  I was wondering
if some of you could share your best solo-syringing tips with me...
especially you shelter moms and dads who must really be experts!
 
Thanks for any help.
