[QUOTE="Steely, post: 484862, member: 3301"] Let us know how it goes. You are right, if he doesn't like the food, he just won't eat. That is a difficult child. Matt did the same thing in phosph. He was like 90 pounds, and he went down to 79 in 2 weeks. On my nightly visit I finally snuck him to the cafeteria where he gulped down about 10 pieces of chicken. He was starving. I got in BIG trouble for doing that - but my response was - he will die (literally) before he eats things he does not like - so you guys get to chose. I was so upset. As for the ticks, and clearing his throat thing, since his medications have not been changed too much - I would think it is stress? It is SO hard to tell over the phone. I am glad you get to see him in person - and please read them the riot act over the food. At the Residential Treatment Center (RTC) Matt went to, they gave the kids choices - if you didn't like the rice, you could eat broccoli instead - things like that. But the difference was that all their food was really healthy, and Matt was more prone to eat healthy food like I made him at home, than hospital type food. HUGS [/QUOTE]
