weaning diet / thank you all

[Guest guest]

Hello ,

I just wanted to thank all of you (too many to mention) for all the

help you've provided. I haven't posted much , but when I did , many

of you helped out. has been on the diet 11 months and we have

decided that it's not worth the stress of meals and of refusing him

foods for the results it's giving us. His seizures never went away on

the diet and in the last couple months have escalated. We tried

tweeking the diet, changing caloric intake, and " playing around "

witht the protein/carb combination.. with no luck. Our next step is

more evaluations to see if he's a surgical candidate (again). I wish

you all luck with your children!!!

PS For those who are just starting.. I'm very glad I tried the keto

diet and wished I had done it sooner. I would continue for 20 years

if it took the seizures away, but at this point with his continued

seizures I don't feel it's worth the trouble(for me) and

the " deprivation " of foods (for him). We feel we gave it our best

shot considering we were told to giev it about 3-6 months.
