Thank you so much for your advocacy and how clearly you articulate what has been a constant problem in the growing "gluten free" market since we found out 2 years ago that our daughter (now 10) has celiac.

Our family has a similar story--our daughter was 18 months and had just started day care, and the answer we gave ourselves (and heard from no small number of medical care professionals) was that she was just picking up "what's going around". Meanwhile, she was sick as a dog, with consistent and horrible diarrhea, and it took a fever of 104 on Danahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10570826875121421559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5090591139439935093.post-59326659247585989262011-05-04T12:41:54.818-07:002011-05-04T12:41:54.818-07:00My daughter got very sick after eating from a &quo...My daughter got very sick after eating from a "gluten-free" menu in a restaurant.
