<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> My son Jacob has celiac. After 4 days in the Hospital due to dehydration, I am now taking stock. I would like to ask a few questions if I may. 1. What did he get???? a) a hot dog from Gordon Food Service (the ingrdients looked OK) b) Betty Crockers Fruit Roll-ups (I thought they were OK, but of course I can't find the documentation) c) he ate something like those wonderful small cc cookies that they had at the picnic and will not own up to it. Jacob is 4.. I'm pretty sure there was not contamination from bun/hot dog. 2. We have been gf for 20 months, and have not had so severe a reaction. We have had several instances of loose stools and upset stomach that we thought were reactions. Were these small instances NOT reactions, and the big one was???? I should mention that Jacob had the celiac blood work done twice since September because the MD is trying to see if monitoring by blood work is an alternative. Both tests were negative. 3. When we do have a severe reaction, is there anything to do that would keep Jacob out of the hospital? Incidentally, when Jacob is dehydrated he WILL drink. It doesn't stop the dehydration at all. Sort of ties in with the water thing, huh? 4. Does anyone know about the POHI program in the schools? I think it stands for Physical and other Health Impairments. There is a classroom available at every grade level, and they tell me that these children eat lunch with aids who make sure they are eating what they are supposed to ( or not eating what they are not supposed to?) ANY input would be appreciated. Jacob starts school next year and I am paniking at this point -- I thought we would have things together by the time he went to school, and now I am concerned about him attending school. Thank you in advance! Karen-Jo Meyers Jackson, MI USA KarenJoM@AOL>COM
