I know I missed a couple of weeks I had trouble with the blogg site

 From the missed week:
The outcome is expected to be very good if the diet is closely followed, starting shortly after the child's birth. If treatment is delayed or the condition remains untreated, brain damage will occur. School functioning may be mildly impaired.
If proteins containing phenylalanine are not avoided, PKU can lead to mental retardation by the end of the first year of life.

Spring break:
I can not stress this enough. It is not a sickness, cancer, desiease and can not be caught. it is just a enzyme in balance. Not all PKU children turn out normal. but some can turn out completely normal and you would never know that they were PKU.

For Last week:
Can you imagine being a parent, getting horrible news that you will never get to take your child to any fast food places. It is devastating, to think that your child might be PKU. The parents and families of PKU children have to cope with things that no one can understand.
