SOLID FOODS ?
Chapter 3 - Parent's Guide

My name is Gena, my husband's name is Jeff, and we have two sons, 7 and 2.  Our 7 yr old son, Kieran, we believe, has Mobius Syndrome.  We have just discovered there *is* a Mobius Syndrome! He was born with left side facial paralysis, he didn't blink his left eye for months (one of my biggest worries for him!), had some troubles breastfeeding as an infant (that we were able to overcome!!!), and has always had issues with choking on certain types of foods.  He has always had a love of intensely flavored food, and as a toddler would devour a bowl of curried onions!  Now, we realize it is because he probably has limited taste, which also explains teething on dill pickles, a fondness for strong european cheeses, preferring course whole grain breads, etc, not exactly what one would think of as 'kid' food :)
