As you may know I have difficulties eating solid food and I know a few other guys who need pureed food like me and a few who have no problems there. There's such variation in DMD no two people are alike.
However I do need pureed food and I saw a new dietician the other week (I've been in contact with dieticians for the last few years after a long absence) and none of the others ever mentioned where I could get pre made pureed food but this one did!
I've recently tried some from a company called Wiltshire Farm Foods and their really good. Their reasonably priced for what they are and there's some variety too. My parents who I'm very grateful for have been preparing meals for me for awhile, ranging from beef stew to slow cooked duck in red wine all pureed for me.
If you have pureed recipes or recipes that could be pureed please feel free to comment below to help all those who eat it and read this post.

Foreword
I’m Ian Griffiths from South Wales. This book is a story of my life so far up to the age of twenty five years. I live with and suffer from the ill effects of DMD which stands for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. It is a severe muscle wasting disease and a life limiting terminal illness. It won’t kill you in six months in the traditional sense of ‘terminal’, but it’s far crueller than that, it steals every muscle in your body first and then kills you, anywhere up to the age of thirty. There have been cases of men living past that into their forties and fifties but only with drastic interventions such as ventilators and tracheotomies, more on this can be found by reading on.
I hope to cover a few things in this book, from a history of my childhood years to a more detailed history from sixteen years onwards and finally onto my current problems and triumphs. At times things I write may make you smile or may make you pause and think about the seriousness of life with this devastating disease. I really hope there will be a cure but currently for us supposedly ‘older’ guys with DMD (over twenty one), there seems very little hope. If I don’t see a cure in my lifetime, I hope my campaigning helps in some way bring it about for future generations, so another child won’t have to see their body wither and die before their time
