The formula shortage is having a lasting impact on one mom in California. Her son is now fighting dehydration and malnourishment.
SAN DIEGO — A majority of San Diego markets have baby formula in stock, but only one will work for Mindy Rubio’s son.Four-year-old Grayson Rubio has an avoidant restrictive eating disorder that prevents him from getting nutrition anywhere else.
“A lot of kids with this condition have to have a feeding tube. Our saving grace to keep him from that is formula," Rubio said.“It was time to buy it and we just couldn’t find it anywhere," Rubio said.“I tried buying every brand of formula and some kind of a substitution and he just wouldn’t drink it," Rubio said.
Grayson was dehydrated and malnourished after two days without food. That’s when she took him to the emergency room.Rubio posted to Facebook as a last resort. Suddenly, mothers across the globe reached out to help. “Somebody I don’t know in Arkansas, she was nice enough to allow me to purchase it and she’s going to ship it to us," Rubio said.
Thanks to a few friends and strangers, Rubio said Grayson will be discharged soon. She’s working with specialists to find a different solution to Grayson’s disorder.
