We tried many different approaches to treat Sawyer and I believe that we had success with some. He was on the modified Atkin’s diet and he never had seizures. His body was incredibly healthy and he was very strong. Since time was of the essence we tried everything we could as long as we knew it couldn’t harm him. Unfortunately, the initial adrenal crisis he experienced accelerated the neurodegeneration that was occurring in his brain and we ran out of options.

I would very much like to get your input, suggestions, ideas, etc. so please e-mail me at janis@fightald.org.
