Well these days have been good. We are eventually going to do SCD but before i do it completely I have been trying a couple of SCD foods to see if Melqui will accept them. This is a strict diet at first but it's so worth it! Melqui's stool test came back with high levels of ALL BAD bacteria in his belly and high levels of yeast. SCD is the answer to fixing that! He has been taking Nystatin liquid for yeast and soon will start a Probiotic that will put the "good" bacteria in his body. You see we all have bacteria in our bodies, good and bad..but it has to be balanced and Melqui obviously isn't balanced. So to get rid of the bad bacteria and yeast we must not feed him any foods that help the "bad" bacterias grow more and more, so SCD will take away those "forbidden" foods and make those "bad" bacteria and yeast die off. Sounds weird? well it works, just ask the families that have seen wonders with their child! Melqui falls right in to perfectly, this is for him!
I've tried making chicken pancakes and he liked it and I made a regular egg omelet (which he never ate eggs before) and he loved it. So I'm confident that SCD will go well, as long as I found just a few SCD food items that he liked we are at a great start, I'm SO EXCITED! everyday we are getting closer to seeing a bigger and greater improvement. I Love My Baby and would do anything for him.
Remember to always keep us in prayer!

Update
It's been about 3 mths since my last post.. my computer had a virus preventing me from using it and the way everything is going I didn't have he money to fix it. So I took my old computer and well here I am.
Well Melqui has been doing really good. Compared to when we first started the GF/CF diet along with his therapies, well he has really come a long way. Before he never spoke and would scream for everything, now he talks a lot and comes to me when he wants something instead of screaming. He has a long way to go but it's been such a BIG change.
I had a stool test done and some blood work and well Melqui has a lot of metals in his body and is going through digestive issues. The stool test showed HIGH levels of BAD bacteria and A LOT of yeast...so what does this mean.... SCD which stands for Specific Carbohydrate Diet, yes another diet! But this one will do the trick in removing all that garbage he has in his gut. You see GF/CF was good but it doesn't heal his gut ans SCD will. So many people have said how remarkable SCD is and how quickly they saw HUGE improvements from day one. It's a hard diet to follow at first but as long as you stick with it the results out weigh all of that. I am very excited to see what the SCD does for him, I'm even considering putting the whole family on it.
