So today wasn't as bad as yesterday, but he was at school most of the day. There were a few times this evening where he had a meltdown, but nothing like the meltdowns this weekend. He didn't want to take his medicine at first; instead, he wanted a lollipop. He kept saying that he didn't want to take medicine today. He ate well. After a bowl and a half of GFCF pasta he asked for a peanut butter sandwich. This made it a little easier for us to hide his powder meds, but he still had to take the liquid ones. A couple we can hide in his juice because they don't have much of a taste, but there are two that have a distinct taste and he takes them by themselves. Phil was finally able to get him to take them.
During his bath (he didn't want to take a shower tonight) he didn't want me washing him with soap. Whenever the soap touched his skin he would frantically wash it off with water. Several times he said the soap was going to burn him.
On another note, we still do not have his summer O/T finalized yet. We've made several attempts to have a dialog with our school district's special education department, but they are aweful about getting back to us. If Phil doesn't hear from someone in the morning he is going to call the Superintendent. I hope to feel a little less stressed once his summer schooling and services are squared away.

We began this blog to share our experiences placing our son Ryan on a gluten-free, casein-free,(and now egg-free) diet. The diet is one part of the healing process we have in place to rid his body of toxins and improve his Autism Spectrum behaviors. We hope that someday our stories will help other families who have chosen to follow this diet. Over time the blog grew into much more than that. We are sharing just about everything that goes on with Ryan while he's on his road to recovery!
