My nephew has Tetralogy of Fallot which is ultra rare (same thing Jimmy Kimmels kid has) and has to be on specialty formula. They were in a position where they actually debated going to the hospital just to try and get some of his formula.
He’s about to go into his second major heart surgery at less than a year and it wild to me that they have to stress about feeding him. He literally just got done feeding from an IV through a feeding tube after months.
They’re on WIC because of the medical bills and evidently WIC recipients need certain brands and certain sizes to qualify which is crazy to begin with. They couldn’t even find the **** outright to buy without the WIC. I can’t imagine WIC recipients trying to find formula in this climate when there’s no option for them to pay outright.
