just had mini heart attack from a misunderstanding. I had hear the BC Children’s hospital Special products distribution center was closing down, then I read on the website that the retail side of SPDC is closing and panicked. So to clarify after speaking with the staff at SPDC, they are not closing down! They are shifting focus to the metabolic foods . They will not be selling retail items like breast pumps, feeding bags, syringes and what not, they are continuing with the BC metabolic food fund. Currently they have a lot of back order specially from cambrooke that has not come in yet. They have no estimation of time on when they will be in and the current October order form is not available online as the whole website and systems are being updated right now. The website will be a metabolic food website. Please check back in a few days if you are wishing to place your October orders!

ahh panic over and hopefully crisis prevented for anyone else whom may of been confused!

Now once again having just looked at the current page that is up through the BC childrens website, SPDC list 2 list for low protein food, one stating covered foods such as low protein staples (baking mixes, bread/cereal products, sauces, protein food replacements ) and then a list for

Non-staple Low Protein Foods may be purchased. This greatly concerns me as I am worried all the “GOOD” food will fall under this category, like the cambrooke foods, such as the eggz, tortillas, or the maddys muffins and cakes. or any of the pre made cambrooke foods we have been asking for them to bring in . Looks like I have some more investigating to do , to bring you all the answers. Hopefully the new website that will be up in a few days will provide some clarity as all links are currently broken and I cannot investigate further that way.

I know cambrooke has been trying to work with the BC government to have their foods subsidized and delivered to our doors, but I have heard no update on their progress , I choose to remain hopeful.

You will know, as soon as I know.
