Guest guest Posted February 10, 2006 Report Share Posted February 10, 2006 Hello group, some new here, some not. I just wanted to post more progress with K. She is now riding the bus to school. Today was her very first day to school. She always rides the bus home but, due to not sleeping well in the past, before SCD, we decided to bring her every morning. Now, that she is doing so well on this diet, she gets to ride the bus. What a big girl. She has come so far. She had bad constipation that would leave her screaming, now she goes alomst everyday. The stools are much better consistency and not so dark either. She does not need any sleep or behavior meds. I do sometimes give her 1/3 the dose of melatonin but, that's just to calm her to get her to bed. Eventually, I would like to see her not take it but, hey what a great thing not to have to give her the med. (clonidine) anymore. She was also on adderall for behaviors. She is much more calm and better focused now. Since starting the diet, she has expanded her foods from about 5 different kinds to 9 now. She is diagnosed with severe autism by the way. She is also almost completely potty-trained and even goes independently most of the time. She still has PICA. And, instead of not being able to talk at all, she is now imitating a word now and then. Horray for K! Horray for SCD! Jenn & Kali Lessard 8 months 3 weeks SCD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
