Dear ,

Thank you for sharing with us all. We are on day 20 entire family....you GIVE

ME SO MUCH HOPE! AND show me that this diet truly is our answer! We have yet

to see a DAN...but hope by the time we see him at the end of April there is so

much progress he doesn't know why we are there to see him....I know that this is

wishful thinking...but already this diet is working better than anything we

tried before!
