Greetings, reader (I say that because I know only one of you read this thing. ha.) Last week, we eliminated chicken completely from Wilson's diet, and it worked so well. He didn't bite at school, and while he still ran out of his classroom and his Kid's Club room at church, his behavior was leaps and bounds better than he has been in weeks. I didn't notice a difference at all with meat vs. no meat, so we called to check in with the allergist this morning.
His news was wonderful! We are going to eliminate chicken and beef (meat-wise) for six months and see how everything goes. All foods that he is not testing positive to (including the fabulous five we started this week) are fair game, just one new food per week, and we will check in with him in SIX MONTHS!!! He completely released Wilson unless we have issues with trying the new foods, and he suggested we introduce fish as a way to get more protein in his diet. WOW!! What a change from even a month ago.
Sweet potatoes are going well so far, except I'm not sure if we can get him to stop eating them! Let's see if this happens with peas next week. What a blessing this is to be able to give him the foods he loved so much before we were told he was allergic to them. I'm getting excited about the healthy and yummy foods we will be able to give him in the next few weeks and months.
Thank you so much "reader" for your prayers, love and support while we are on this journey. We will have a follow-up visit with the GI doctor Thursday, and I am hoping for more good news. As always, I will keep you updated.
Blessings.
