Together, they run an online feeding course and have a huge social media presence.

Delaware and McNamee were brought together by a precious baby named Jack, who passed away at just six-months-old.

Jack had Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA). Delaware was Jack's OT. Megan is a friend of Jack's mom. Though Delaware and McNamee live in different states, they've teamed up to help other families navigate the feeding journey.

ABC7 News Anchor Ama Daetz spoke with McNamee to get answers to some common questions, asked by our viewers.
