I had the honor today of chatting with Kali whose daughter, Sutton, has a feeding tube. This has not in any way stopped her from competing with her high-level cheer team. In fact, she's used her small size to her advantage becoming a flyer, often seen at the top of stunts. In this episode, Kali shares:
- Why Sutton's doctors decided a feeding tube would help her
- What it's like preparing a child for a feeding tube, including educating her classmates and cheer team
- How Sutton makes her feeding tube work in cheer (hint: it involves her ponytail!)
- How cheer has built her self-confidence about her size
- How Sutton is working to help other kids in similar situations to not be scared and to pursue their dreams, despite medical challenges
