When Chace Selby was born, doctors realized he had a congenital heart defect. Although it was scary for his parents, Chace survived infancy and has become a rambunctious little toddler.
Since he was born, Chace has already had two open-heart surgeries. Chace, who is 3 years old now, requires a feeding tube to help him with being underweight.
Because of his condition, Chace didn’t eat much as a baby, so doctors put in a feeding tube to supplement the food he ate orally.
Six months ago, Chace asked his dad why he has a G-tube (the name of the feeding tube).
Robert explained what happened next on Instagram:
[Chace] is sucking in his stomach, trying to show off his abs like his daddy but all you can see are his little ribs.
I just cut and glued one of his G-tubes on me to show support for him and bring awareness.
My son was born with a Congenital Heart Defect called Tetralogy of Fallot and he uses a feeding-tube to help him with being under weight due to him not eating orally as much since he was a baby.
But as long as I’m breathing, I’ll always support my son and he’ll never be in a fight alone.
What do you think of this dad’s incredible gesture?
