You see we saw the specialist for sam

he is three years old. he is amazing and smart, loves spiderman and superman and smells like mustard a lot. He also has autism.Our family is on a mission to help him. to get him back from this.
Why do i say get him back? you see it wasn't always this way. he use to seem ok but somewhere at some point things changed and we lost touch with him. I want him back.
the appointment was for sam, however after talking to the dr I think I am putting the entire family on it. We all have digestion issues and it's a healthy way to eat.
so we can't have starches as of June 1st. Fruit veggies and meats are ok. nuts and beans are too.
I have started this journal to document our journey as we delve into the SCD and hopefully recovery for all of us
