Thankful for Grandma & Papa C

Today I am so thankful for my mother and father-in-law.  They took the kids for the weekend and gave this mommy a much needed break.  I cannot tell you how helpful and important it is for family members to be on board, and fully understand the diet requirements for FructMal kids.   My mom-in-law has been such a terrific support to us.  She has researched feverishly with us and follows along on the Facebook support group.  I know there are many families out there that do not have the support...and have family members that are skeptical of the diagnosis (because they have never heard of fructose malabsorption) or don't take the diet seriously.  I feel for them.  This can be a difficult & frustrating digestive disorder to live with.  Many foods are off limits and at times it feels isolating. Having family support makes it so much easier to cope with. Thank you, Grandma & Papa C!  We appreciate all that you do for us!
