Celiac 101

Many of you have asked me for information about Celiac Disease.

I am working on a letter for friends and family - but until all of the services for my Grandpa are over I am focused on other things.

However, a friend sent me the link for a video on YouTube. Can I just say...I LOVE YouTube! I mean, there are even videos of people cooking gluten-free food! There is a great one for Thanksgiving stuffing! You know what I'll be watching as we near the holidays!

This video is a clip from the TV show The View. One of the hosts, Elizabeth, has Celiac Disease and brought one of the leading Celiac medical professionals, Dr. Peter Green.

If you really want to understand Celiac - watch the entire thing. Otherwise, just watch the first two minutes for a good introduction!

I am SO glad that we caught this with Will so early!!

This is so interesting - I think it rocks that you're educating yourself as much as possible, and spreading the word.

About your comment - I'm glad you noticed. *wink* Haha!

Hmm...it says "This video is no longer available" - I'm going to have to Youtube it. I don't know much about it and would like to learn more.

Di- Isn't it interesting?!?! While I wish Will didn't have it - I am having fun learning about it, and making adjustments! Oh, and of course I noticed *wink* *wink* *nudge* nudge*.

Jess - tag back!! See my 'personal' blog off of our profile.

Amelia - did you get it to work? It's working again on here!

Fascinating! I expect nothing less of you than to become the next Celiac Foundation Chairperson. But, wow!...you have a challenge ahead of you to avoid gluten and find yummy foods. It looks like they are out there, but is it pricey? Good luck with the whole switchover and educating little Will about it.
PS-I'll call/email you later about getting together.
