[QUOTE="Dpapa0514, post: 1757492, member: 430421"] Hi. I think your making a great decision also. My son was diagnosed a month after he turned 3, and was in icu for 5 days. The doctors educated me so much in those 5 days( but there's so much that I'm still learning by doing my own research. ) we also do the low carb diet. It works for us too. One thing the doctors told me was "carb counting is always important and do not change his diet, he is a growing boy and needs dairy, bread, etc.. For his brain and body to grow, and they advised me all the foods with less carbs to try to add them into his diet whenever I can. Like snacks could be no or low carbs to where he wouldnt need an injection after. And even tho these "diets" seem boring, there actually not a diet, its a normal way to eat. We dont realize how unhealthy wd eat until we have these restrictions come about. Your doing great, and he depends on you to care for him so if its working for you 2, then thats great. Good job.
