Hi all,
I have a new first grade student who I need some help with.  Mom
reports that he will only eat one type of sandwich for lunch.  He does
not eat breakfast and picks very little at his dinner.  He eats dry
cereal and chicken nuggets as the majority of his diet.  He will vomit
at the site or smell of bananas.  He has been through the
desensitization stuff through EI and mom reports he tolerated all of
that but did not have any real improvements.  He will brush his teeth or
will at least do a "try it bite" of foods presented to him.  He has been
to several EENTs and they do not report any concerns. When I talk to
her, it sounds more olfactory to me, but this isn't an area I have much
experience with..... I am writing here in hopes of someone having a
similar situation and can maybe point me toward some good resources to
help this little guy??  The rest of his oral motor functioning is good
with only minor difficulties with jaw movements which barely impact his
speech.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
