I just want to take a moment to welcome the new members we have to
this group! I hope you all can feel comfortable asking questions
and getting to know other moms on this list. I know when we are
dealing with autism and/or food allergies we can often feel alone
and the world we once knew before those diagnosis's seems to be
forever gone. It has been so nice finding other parents who are in
the same boat and finding comfort and support with the members of
this group. The group has been quiet lately but it's just because
we are all so busy! I hope we can get some updates coming in and
some discussion started again! I know for some of us we have seen
some major improvements, while others have stayed the same or have
continued to really struggle. I hope that we can all share what has
helped and where we are at now so that we can continue to support
one another. There are a lot of bigger groups out there with a lot
more information, but I like to think that our group is somewhat
unique in that not all parents of kids with autism are dealing with
the severe, multiple food allergies some of us have experienced and
it is nice to share with other parents so we can look to make
progress for our kids in the future. Welcome everyone, new and old!
I look forward to hearing from some of you new members and old
members as well. Have a great Sunday evening!

Jenny

Hi Trista, Welcome to our group! Your pediatrician is partly right that it can be hard to track down allergens through formal testing, but it can certainly...

Suzanne, Thank you so much for your reply. I agree with you about the pediatrician, I didn't think he took it as seriously as he should have. When I asked...

Also consider laundry soaps, fabric softener and things like that if it is something he woke up with. ... From: tn21284 To: foodallergyautism@yahoogroups.com ...
