help!! managing school - Re: chewable enzymes

September 2, 2005

hi,

i am going to have major problems managing this whole enzyme issue

and staying compliant to scd during term time

neither the school or nursery will administer any type of medication

even with permission from the docter - big suing culture here

i am left with a stark choice - if they go to school - they both

have to adminster the enzymes themselves, being 7 and 2 i cant see

this being much of an option, kai could probably actually manage the

whole opening the capsule and adding water thing with support from

the teacher but i dont really know how happy theyll be to do this

and wether they will even remember to do it, and for the little one

its not even an option, or go without

so my choice is therefore that they have to go with the chewable

enzymes to school and that they are considered therefore part of the

school snack and dinner

i do remember sheila saying (to the point - how is she - been a

while since she posted????) that if a child/adult needed medicine

and it included illegal ingredients then to to offer this medicine,

while staying as compliant to scd in other ways that you could, i

feel that this is the only way for us, and although it is a double

edged sword - i hope the benefits can outweigh and negatives

its very very frustrating as obviously i have huge concerns that

this will slow down any obvious healing but we have no choice

thank you for listening
