Put my child on oxygen and feeding tube

My 6-month-old son was hospitalized on oxygen and a feeding tube after his breathing issues worsened despite doctor's advice to monitor him.

What I wish I knew
"The importance of not dismissing parents' concerns and taking immediate action when a child's condition deteriorates."
If I could tell you one thing
"Trust your instincts as a parent and advocate for your child's well-being, even if it means going against medical advice."
