autism or celiac

[Guest guest]

To the original poster of this question.I just wanted to encourage

you to try the diet. I have been thinking alot about what you have

written and I can see you have done research and are searching as we

all are for an intervention to help our child. Maybe the kids that

respond to the diet should have a diagnosis that better fits the

condition, but we dont. When we try this we are all just parents who

have been told our kids have autism, we research, read, and somehow

come across the gf/cf diet and since it can do no harm we try it. It

works for a large number of us and our kids benefit greatly. Could

the behaviors be due to an underlying condition science has yet to

name? It could, but you wont know if your child will respond unless

you try. It can be difficult to allow yourself to get your hopes up

again, to try something new again because we all fear that what we

are trying wont be successfull, but again you could succeed , your

child may get better ,like so many of our children have, and its

worth the risk just to know if your child will be one of the

responders to the diet. I wish you much luck on your journey to save

your child.
