Meet Kendall Hollinger, a True Champion
At 13 years old, Kendall's an outstanding athlete, a
figure-skating champion. Watching her on the ice, you'd never guess
she's been allergic to 95% of foods since birth-or that she has
a
KIMBERLY-CLARK* MIC-KEY* Low-Profile Feeding Tube. Kendall's been
thriving with MIC-KEY* tube since she was 4. Its low profile lets
her perform for audiences with no limitation on her drive to become
a champion.

Meet Rick Davis
When a reporter calls Rick Davis' cell phone to arrange an
interview about his experiences with enteral feeding, a cheerful,
if slightly static-tinged voice answers, "Hello, this is Rick."
Asked if he can spare some time to talk, he explains that there's a
problem. The "problem" is that Rick, a human dynamo who's training
for a 25-kilometer fundraising walk, is on a hike at the moment -
about 3,000 feet up a big Utah mountain. He can't talk now, but he
does have some time tomorrow. Seven a.m. sound alright?

Meet Lucas & Traci
As first time parents, Traci and her husband Jon had no idea
that feeding tubes were an option for infants, and though they at
first hoped that Lucas would not need to be enterally fed, their
misgivings were quickly cast aside as Lucas began to thrive once
the tube was placed.

Meet Joey Schwartz
From the time he was an infant until he was in fifth grade, Joey
received the majority of his nutrition through a G-tube protruding
from his stomach. Joey lived with his G-tube until 2000 when his
doctors fitted him with the MIC-KEY* tube, which according to Joey,
"has truly allowed me to live an even better life!"

Having a child with food allergies can be extremely challenging
for any parent, but imagine having two children with food allergies
so severe that both must rely on enteral feeding for all of their
nourishment.

Meet Chelsea & Tracy Ashworth

daughter's need for a feeding tube.
