Eventually I insisted he saw a specialist because I 'knew' something was wrong. Mother's instinct, I guess.<BR/>Hi Karina, nice to have a goddess float in!

My daughter was diagnosed over 10 years ago too - she's now 11. Was Hugh (like capulet's step-niece and my daughter) also diagnosed as a baby?<BR/><BR/>We too are a tricky family to feed - I don't eat meat (nor does my coeliac daughter); my other daughter loves a roast but won't touch a vitamin; and my son is permanently hungry.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5959261.post-71799894933779162242007-05-17T09:40:00.000+01:002007-05-17T09:40:00.000+01:00Hi Sheltie Girl, Thanks for stopping by.

Between the four of us we cover the range gluten sensitivity, nightshade allergy, plus lactose & soy intolerance. <BR/><BR/>When my extended family gets together at my parent's beach house each summer, we tend to do a lot of grilling and eating fresh vegetables. I bring along my gluten free flours and make the desserts. Everybody love them and is thankful that they don't need to worry about someone getting sick. <BR/><BR/>Thank you for sharing part of your adventure with us. <BR/><BR/>Sheltie Girl<BR/>www.glutenagogo.blogspot.comSheltie Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00017566413309758029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5959261.post-75536427621951158642007-05-16T20:59:00.000+01:002007-05-16T20:59:00.000+01:00Oh that's such a sad story, Kath, and typical of c...Oh that's such a sad story, Kath, and typical of coeliacs I'm sure because they don't actually want to eat the wrong thing because it makes them feel so bad. <BR/>And hi, Capulet. We had a similar story in that it's very hard to diagnose. The amazing thing is how quickly the child changes though, once they are on the right diet. Hope things are going well for you at uni, btw.Sarah Salwayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08254413682817411906noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5959261.post-36673815595121407172007-05-16T18:05:00.000+01:002007-05-16T18:05:00.000+01:00My step-niece has coeliacs.

Her mum sent her with her own packed party tea, to avoid any problems. That was so thoughtful, and a real help.<BR/><BR/>But after the Pass the Parcel, I found the little girl in tears hiding in the kitchen. She'd 'won' a pack of Smarties, hidden between layers of wrapping paper, and didn't know if she could eat them or not. Neither did I, as labelling then wasn't as good as now. A quick phone call to her mum resolved the issue (Smarties were OK) and she soon cheered up.<BR/><BR/>It's only been the last couple of years that food has had to be labelled to show whether or not it contains gluten, I read yesterday. Mad isn't it, when such a high proportion of the population are coeliacs.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
