Re: ICAN

[Guest guest]

Sherry,

The ICAN group is with Cyndi- I believe she is out of Spokane, WA.

I was nervous about the " how much time can you spend implementing

the program " question--but maybe that is why they ask-to fit the

program into your life. But I do believe that the ICAN group

suggests using ABA, I'm not sure about the sign Language. Thanks for

your input-It makes me feel better about doing this.

The diet thing...it gets easier as you go, I suggest finding an

organic co-op and buy some of the flour mixes that already have the

Xanthum gum in them, in bulk. I make waffles on the weekend and

freeze them. Tucker can't have alot of the premade GF stuff because

of the sodium. I love " Diets for Special Kids " and use that book

alot. We eat plainly, I use the crock pot alot for dinner. ( I hate

cooking!)

Thanks again,

in Washington
