We had a great game today. All of the boys on our team did such a great job! I cannot begin to tell you how proud I am of my son. We have had terrible struggles with school work, simply not wanting to do it, flipping his pencil, dropping it in the floor, chewing the eraser off, ect. You name it he does it. This was all before diet changes were made. Also getting him dressed in the morning was a nightmare, Ethan crying, I would cry. Just getting so upset because these tasks were so easy to me to get accomplished, but for Ethan these are monumental tasks. I am learning to be more patient with him and try not to get so frustrated. I have to admit it is getting easier. This diet is a God send. Our family functions so much better because of it.
Do not misunderstand me, Ethan does take medication for his ADHD, but I really can't say that this is what is helping him. I know the medicine helps him to focus at school, which is why we give it to him, but the medicine is only good for about eight hours then it is out of his system. We do not give him his medicine on weekends. So you be the judge, Ethan's behavior has improved 85% on the weekends. He is still a hyper seven year old, just a little calmer and much happier!
