A gluten free diet: easy gluten free recipes and the celiac child
One of the biggest questions we had when Jamie was first diagnosed with celiacs disease was ‘Should the whole family go gluten free?’ And it is a question that must be asked in any family where one member is diagnosed with celiacs.

When your child is first diagnosed with celiacs disease, one of the biggest questions is ‘Should the whole family go gluten free?’
Certainly there are advantages to this option: equally there are disadvantages. It is a question that needs discussing and working through,preferably as a whole family, as everyone is affected, the earlier the better.

Having written about Jamie’s gluten free day last Wednesday, I did get to thinking about the impacthis celiac disease, and gluten free diet has on me!. So here is a day in the life of my celiac child from the point of view of the one who feeds him.
