Ranjeeta, she is an occupational therapist, who has specialized in sensory integration issues. Her number is 9441349168.          Also you may check my earlier post on schools in Hyderabad for more details.

Technically speaking or rather, clinically, Ramam is out of it. The blood test for Ramam has ruled out allergies towards gluten and milk. The floodgates have opened, so as to speak. My daughter has checked and rechecked with me in the last 2-3 days that is it ok for him to have noodles, wheat and milk… in that order. Can he eat dahi chawal is her BIG question. For a boy who loved his rice and curds few years back, he turned it down yesterday after my husband offered it at dinner time. After much cajoling, he hesitatingly tried a spoon of curd and fell in love with it all over again.                     Does this mean it is the end of GFCF for him and “US “too? Is it time to ring down the curtains     for jowar rotis, akki rottis, and raagi     parathas .Does it mean yes to panner at home? Is it time to watch out for Dominos flyers? Does eating out mean more than dosas, vada...

I want to thank all the sponsors who have contributed to this cause through online donations and cheques. A big thank you to all of you once again.Here are some photos of the marathon.Ramam and Isha did a 4k where  they joined the majja runners.I beamed proudly as some runners cheered us on saying both  ur kids are running.Unfortunately a beaming self is not in the photo. The next picture is  taken right after the 4k when they joined their father after his 10k.The third one, of course  recouping after the run.

June 6 th Ramam turned 10. We had a bday celebration with just the 4 of us. Went for a movie, bought some gifts, and ate out. We watched king khan in My name is Khan at home!   This was a different bday for him from his earlier ones with no bday party, no cake cutting. He picked up and answered all his birthday calls himself this time. A first! .We had done a blood test at the Apollo hospitals for allergies on the 5 th.   We are hoping that the tests come negative for the “THE” allergens gluten and casein. We are yet to receive the test results, and then probably that would be his birthday gift. At school he is in  a new class with a new set of teachers.   Wishing that he has a great year ahead of him.
