Imagine a life without Sweets

The story of Cindy

My daughter has hereditary fructose intolerance which means she can not metablise fructose. Unfortunately, fructose is found in nearly all fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds and processed foods. Imagine living with such a restrictive diet. She has never had cake, ice cream, chocolate and candy.  We read labels on everything and scrutinise restaurant menus.  Travel can be tricky when sugar is deadly.  This is our life of horrible tasting supplements and dietary restriction.  She is an amazing kid and I admire her for her strength and adversity.
