Sometimes children can’t eat well on their own. This can be for lots of reasons. We all need to eat to be healthy, though!

There are people at the hospital who can help. They have different ways of helping you eat.

Sometimes you might have a little tube attached to you so you can eat. Or you might see a nurse who can help you swallow better.

The nurses will check to make sure you’re eating properly. They’ll also want you to put some weight on!

If you come to hospital for a day, or stay for longer, the doctors and nurses will help you and your family.
