Swallow Test Today.

Okay, I'm about to take Miles to the swallow test that I wrote about 2 weeks ago. I have to take him in his wheelchair. They will give him Barium (sp?) to drink and then feed him a bottle and spoon feed him while watching a computer screen to see where the food goes when he swallows. They will be checking to see if he is aspirating and I think some other stuff. I think I'm going to be able to watch the screen and see the food go down his throat. How wild it that.

You get to do tons of cool stuff that I don't! Try to remember every single detail about the food going down. I want a full briefing Thursday night! If at all possible, feel free to draw graphic pictures or graphs. Thanks!
