A solution to the disagreements?

[Guest guest]

Hi! I've been using the resources of the GFCFKids

group for probably a month now. My son is 15 months

old and has been GFCF for all his life, with the

exception of whatever passed through my breastmilk.

We've done the testing at the Great Plains Lab, the

first time by the recommendation of one of their

nurses. has always been underweight, even

lost weight during his first 6 months, and has serious

food intolerances. He acts like an animal when he

does come in contact with any gluten or casein, and a

recent retest of urinary peptides confirms that his

problem has not miraculously disappeared. He has not

been diagnosed with anything, and is too young to be

diagnosed as anything that we discuss on this group.

I've been dealing with this diet for quite a while,

and every day I think about how easy it would be to

just say, " Forget about it " and feed him a normal diet

and let the cards fall as they will. I COULD NOT have

stayed with it this month without the support of this

group! is at the age where he sees people

eating things that he can't have, and realizes that

his replacement is just not the same. This group has

helped me find similar replacements and deal with the

diet and know that I'm not alone. My family thinks

that I'm ridiculous for being so strict with his diet,

and this group has helped me deal with that, too.

Now we have the conflict with the alternative

therapies. I personally don't mind the posts, I'm

interested in the enzymes and might possibly be

interested in other therapies if and when my child is

diagnosed with something, but I can see where some

people might not want to wade through them. The

bickering, and people leaving with a burr up their

butt, is very discouraging for those of us just trying

to get info.

My point: I have started a new Yahoo group:

gfcfdiet for the dedicated discussion

of the GFCF diet ONLY. I hope for there to be no

discussion of alternative therapies. This will be

only for discussion and support of the GFCF diet for

kids and adults. I, however, will remail in this

group, as well, because of all the great info I get

here. I can hit the delete button just as easily as

the next person if I see a subject that doesn't

interest or pertain to me. Sorry to post such a long

message.

, how does someone join this group? I clicked on the addresss and

it came as an email address, do I just send an email asking to join? I

do not know much about computers so I don't mean to sound dum, but thats

exactly what I am when it comes to compus. Can I accesss this group

through my email as I do the gfcfkids site, without using the web?

Thanks
