AZ Gal's Blog

This is a blog about my life and how I cope with Celiac. What I eat, things that I run into, reactions from other people, and reactions from me. The good. The bad. The ugly.

Celiac.com Sponsor (A13):
 

I have been Dx'd for about 1.5 years. During that time my life was not only turned upside down from my diagnosis, but my daughter was also Dx'd with Type 1 Juvenile Diabetes (both diseases are strongly linked, as I'm sure most of you already know)

So, it's been a trying couple of years with a lot of adjustments. I've learned a lot about food from both of our lifestyles.

I lead a quite life as a high school English teacher - well, sort of quiet. I love playing with my two lovely children who are the joy and also the trial in my life.

Celiac disease is fine with me, as long as I'm not pressured to eat out. I hate eating out. That's a confession. I live in the Phoenix metro area and we are blessed with a number of great establishments which cater to the gluten-free population. I enjoy eating at these restaurants but I loath having to explain to others about my dietary concerns when we go out for dinner/lunch/drinks or what not.

So, this is a blog to let others out there wherever you are in on how I deal with the lifestyle and how we as a family thrive, despite the challenges of our immune systems!

Enjoy~
