Oh my gosh what I wouldn't do for pizza delivery! I have celiac and my kids are autistic, one of whom only eats like 7 things (pizza is not one). My husband gets a gold start for keeping us all fed/alive.

You have described his occupation perfectly. It's not always as awesome as it sounds tho: tonight he had to referee 4 screaming boys in a bouncy house in our living room while making dinner. I'm happy to report everyone survived.

Very little, I basically achieved everything 10 year old me wanted (own a house, work with my dad, have a house husband, own a car - I was a really boring 10 year old).

This is an excellent way for both to become suddenly relevant.

Eat Tex-Mex food. And Six Flags Hurricane Harbor Splashtown is in that area.

I hope your treatment goes well!

I don't decorate, but my husband does (he's super into it and I am not). He decorates the house for Halloween, thanksgiving, Christmas, and Easter. One year, my kids made me put a waving jack skellington on my back windshield wiper.

That is exactly how it sounded in my head while I'm typed it.

I'm like 90% sure the post is about diabetes.

Ranch dressing. I hated it for years, but I moved to the suburbs and suddenly it tasted good (seriously). 🤷

I buy it for my kids because they are on the spectrum and McDonald's French fries are literally 1 of 7 foods one of them will eat. I would eat it, because I love it, but I have celiac and can't.

 
 
 

I am newly diagnosed with CD. Wanted to connect with others to see if you have any helpful tips or information for newbies. CD wasn't previously on my radar - getting tested was part of several tests ordered - so I know very little on how to navigate this.

 

My son (10 yo) has a few very strong interests that he talks about pretty much nonstop. We haven't discouraged any kind of talking because he was quite delayed. However it has come to my attention that his narrow focus on these topics can annoy his peers at school. I don't want him to feel ashamed about his interests, but I also don't want him to be ostracized at school. I'd really appreciate any thoughts this group may have on how to handle (or not) this situation. TIA!
