Tara had been complaining a lot lately about stomach pains. We finally took her to the doctor and he ordered her to have some tests run last Monday. Well, we received the results and she has Celiac Disease. That means that she has to be placed on a gluten-free diet...poor girl. No more bread, cookies, baked goods etc. I am starting to do research and get familiar with it and it seems like she can still eat as many fruits and vegies as she chooses. She can also have meat as long as it is not marinated in any kind of sauce that contains wheat or rye. If she chooses to eat food with wheat, it can start to break down her immune system. Yikes! If anyone has any suggestions and is familiar with this, please email me their suggestions!

oh no!! :( Well I'm glad she at least knows what's wrong now.
Really pretty picture by the way!
Thats too bad. What a bummer. You'll have to look online for some recipes that she could have. At least she'll feel better now. I can'e believe that Chris will be home in a bit. That's exciting!! Brady is doing good by the way, thanks for asking.
Thankfully, some grocery stores have started to have sections of Gluten-Free items. I know Maceys has devoted some space. At least now you know.
Bummer!!!!Guess what? I have celiac too. It's hard at first, but once Tara gets used to the diet, she will feel so much better, it will be worth it. Have her come see me and I can share recipes and all sorts of stuff with her.
