9/8/2016 10:12:32 AM | Thank you Kelly and Craig! It was nice to hear back from you and to receive your support! I'm so happy for you that you moved your daughters into their dorm without fears! What glorious progress! I feel the same now that I can get in bed with my son and wrestle with him again and give him back rubs and head rubs without fear! Thanks be to God! It's what a mother should be able to do without a thought or fear. It was the hardest part of this condition for me when I was scared to infect him by touching him and chose to keep my distance using a back scratcher to rub and tickle his back before bed. I remember squirting it with Kleen Green and wrapping a paper towel around the part I would hold. I'd sneak a quick rub with my hand at the end. What difficult and painful times those were. I think I should clarify a little, though, my plan is at this time to widen my food options and from my talks with Mel and Ellen it is what one should do at this point. Test your body with new foods and see what you can now tolerate. Try things in increasing quantities slowly over time. So, I am hoping I don't have to go to the strict diet of the first 2 years. I really think it isn't needed. So, I don't really consider what I'm doing cheating at this point. I believe that all those that did get well, get to this point and start to broaden their foods. When I was on the conference call with Ellen, when she was the guest speaker, she was saying the same. After I posted last week, the crawling when I drink my bit of coffee has stopped. So, yay, it seems to be okay for me now. I guess that's all I wanted to make sure was clear, because as I've said before, when I first started here it didn't seem to me that anyone that was really well would post enough on what they were eating and how their lives were normalizing. I got really excited when Bill M first started posting his diet changes. So, I believe it gives hope to those who might be like I was in the beginning stages that don't know what to expect and feel a little hopeless unless they read about the normalizing happening at the wellness end of this journey. God Bless! Mary |
