Hi All,

My mother is 83, a celiac sprue patient, and is currently hospitalized
for the fourth time with a severe clostridium dificile infection that
apparently arose from the antibiotics given for an earlier hospitalized
stay for pneumonia.  She currently weighs only 70 lbs., and we are
terribly concerned for her.  Her veins keep collapsing so it is
difficult to maintain the nutritional IV.  As best we can tell, she
really is getting a GF diet based on doctor's orders.

We have been looking for a GF nutritional supplement on the order of
Ensure, but of course, gluten free.  Her doctor mentioned a product
called "Resource", but wasn't sure it was GF.  Can anyone help us out
with suggestions for known GF nutritional supplements?

Thanks,

Denise.
