Help! My son just diagnosed with Crohn’s this week at 17 2/3 years old and only a few months until Cal Poly, states away. 53 days left on 8 weeks EEN (Ensure only) then SCD. Identical twin showing no symptoms. Doctor encouraged both to do SCD as preventative for other twin. Scrambling to get them independent in just a few months. Going to orientation early to meet with local doc, nutrition department, disability office, and visit all 19 campus dining options to evaluate SCD legal options. Logistically in college not realistic to have them preparing all their own food. Any other thoughts? We have been eating healthy for years, this is just an entirely different level. Scrambling
