Dairy Free!

The director of The Little Star School asked me if I had Cassidy on a dairy free/gluten free diet. I told her no and asked no questions about it since she quickly moved on to tell me other information about the school.

I got on the Internet later that day and found this web site. http://www.gfcfdiet.com Mom and I both read it and felt hopeful about trying it. Giving up dairy is hard since she LOVES cottage cheese and ice cream but giving up wheat...that was really hard. We tried it for 2 days and saw no changes.

It was difficult for us to find things that Cassidy would eat. It was frustrating and showing no results at all. I know it was only 2 days but it is already difficult to make this child eat. We decide to just cut out dairy first...this meant no chocolate.

That lasted about a week. Now we are back to normal and are just a little more cautious with the dairy but it seems hopeless. We talked to the family doctor about this on Monday. He said that he had known people to try it and get no or few results. He said that when it comes to something with no cure people start making up cures.

I feel he is right. I have tried so many "natural healing" methods in the past. I have little faith in such things anymore. *sigh*
