Visit to Baton Rouge

Hello, We had a visit to Casey's sister and brother-in-law last week and it was wonderful. Casey got to go to an LSU game and Cameron and Caroline got to spend some QT with their four cousins Thomas, Annie, Claire and Daniel. While we were there we went to see a Dr. Stephani Cave. She has put Cameron on a gluten and casien free diet. This is wheat and dairy product free. The diet has it's challenges but we are more then willing to try this. Many children bodies do not breakdown these proteins which get into the bloodstream that eventually end up in the brain as a form of morphine. These morphines interfere with the transmittion of nerve impulses which effect behavior and development. She also has Cameron on alot of supplements to help cleanse her system. Like I said we are willing to try anything but what she talks about makes a lot of sense. She has written a book that links vaccinations to auto-immune disorders as well as autism that I am currently reading and find very fasinating.

As Casey said we got the approval for Cap-C yesterday. This was great news as we were not expecting to hear anything until after Christmas. Cameron will have a CNA everyday from 2:30 to 5:30 to help with her care. This covers just about everything and will be very helpful to me. We have to now choose an agency and interview CNA's to find a good fit. Addtionally, this will allow Cameron to get much needed speech thearpy four days a week. It would also cover cost for equipment that Cameron may need which will also be helpful. We are excited and truly appreciate all of the prays for this matter. Much love and Happy Turkey Day--Shelly
