[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 162910, member: 1233"] I am so sorry. It will mean big changes for him. and you. At least you will probably see big positive behavior changes. I had a friend in college who was diagnosed with celiac. She was a MAJOR partier, and a total difficult child. After all the diet changes she was a different person. Not only did she LOOK healthier, she smiled and she was a real sweetie. A total easy child, and it was amazing. If you have the procedure done and it does NOT find celiac, will you have problems getting him to follow the diet?? Just wondering. While this is a concern, at least he is young so maybe will have avoided most of the damage, and it is treatable. If he is in a school that has federal funds for lunch, you will need to meet with the cafeteria person. They will provide lunch for him (are required to by law) but you will need a doctor's prescription AND some forms filled out by the doctor. Depending on the health issue, he may qualify for free lunch even if you do not meet the income guidelines. But that is iffy. Providing a lunch he can eat when he is getting a school lunch is required though. You may need to give them a day's notice or so when he wants a school lunch. Hugs, Susie [/QUOTE]
