Just tuned in Larry King Live and a woman named Deborah Scaling Kiley on her lead in was talking about people and survival and she actually mentioned people who survive celiac disease. I wish he had asked about it, but was shocked to hear it mentioned.

I'm going to Tivo the repeat later on tonight, and look at it tomorrow--thanks for the heads-up!

Rikki Tikki Explorer

Did anybody else hear this?

jerseyangel Proficient

Sally--I did Tivo it and forgot about it till now! I just checked--the show was about people who survived life-threatening situations. The woman you mentioned was talking about her boat sinking and being attacked be sharks. 2 of her companions didn't survive. I heard no mention of Celiac....

Hey Patti:

Can you listen to it one more time. If I heard it right she said it at the same time she said something about many people surviving different things and I am just sure she mentioned celiac. If not maybe I am finally losing it!

Thank you Patti for finding the transcripts. I just read the transcripts and wow quite a story. It is amazing to say the least, I remember when this happened back in the early 80s. I also read her first book.

From what I can gather the person with celiac disease didn't come out on the show. This is what was said...

--------------------------------------------------------------------

""""KING: boy, that's all from "I Shouldn't Be Alive," a weekly on the Discovery Channel. Our guest is Deborah Scaling Kiley, author of, "No Victims, Only Survivors."

You have a foundation with that name, right?

KILEY: We're working on it right now. My lawyers are establishing it right now. It's really my goal, through this book, to really work with people and take them from that victimization into being survivors.

I tell stories of many different survivors here, and breast cancer, celiac's disease, there's diabetes. Yossi's story, who is here tonight, is also in there. """"

--------------------------------------------------------------------

If Deborah “Debbie” Kiley Blackmon speak of celiac disease in her book -- we need her as our celiac disease spokesperson!

I'll link her web site and if anyone wants to write and ask her more questions... Open Original Shared Link Click on the link 'the author' then choose 'eMail the author'

I thought that's what I heard, wow thanks for finding the transcript. I wish he had asked about the celiac, but I think it's a good thing that it was mentioned.

ms-sillyak-screwed Enthusiast

If no -one wants to write to her and ask -- I will... Just let me know...

I remember her story and read her first book about the boat the 'trashman'. I know what it feels like being at the mercy of the ocean. I'm a boater, have been my whole life, learned to swim before I learn to walk. And I've made the same trip from the NE to south Florida by yacht, and the gulf stream crossing many many times... and can imagine what it must have been like for them. I can't imagaine being a celiac and a drift for days with nothing... I've been in 12' seas and no navigational tools, only a compass in the middle if a fierce storm.

It's not clear by Larry Kings interview who was the Celiac...

ms-sillyak-screwed Enthusiast

Has anyone else written to Deborah?

To thank her for getting celiac disease in the media?

I have...

ms-sillyak-screwed Enthusiast

Deborah Scaling Kiley wrote me back -- Celiac is in her NEW BOOK. Her dear friends daughter almost died from celiac disease. They used her "The Ten Lessons For Survival" - in the book.

We have to get a copy. I'm ordering one...

If you want me to post a link to amazon, just ask and I will.

my daughter almost died, if she hadn't been diagnosed in time she would have, she dropped 50% of her body weight in less than a month, at a year old she weighed less than she did when she was born. The doctors thought that we had caught it too late, they thought they were going to send her home to die. :(

Lister, make no mistake, people have died from this disease..... Undiagnosed celiac kills......

Even diagnosed, there are cases (and complications), google up refractory celiac sprue, or ulcerative jejunitis.

wow didnt realise that sometimes the body does not responde to the diet... hope thats not whats happening with me guess i have not been on the diet long enough to really know. anyways yeah i know undiagnosed is dangeriuse and can be fatal just didnt know that it could get worse after getten caught

Every person's response to the gluten free diet is different. Some people experience immediate improvment, others it takes over 2 years for the healing to begin...... Depends on the severity of the damage, I guess......

Karen

Lister Rising Star

sorry this kinda went off topic. yeah i had immediat improvments the first week but then i was back to where i was the next week really strange its like some days im improving and some days im getting worse. as for damage and me, the only thing my doctor has found was subsarean folds in my small intestine, so it looks like im in pretty good shape. o bye the way if anyone is looking for a copy of the book on lary king live, go to well pm me and i will give u a website where you can find a free copy of the book, its really good i just started reading it today, also the site has gluten free cookbooks and what not i just dont want to publicly post it

ms-sillyak-screwed Enthusiast

Someone posted on one of these threads that they got a free copy and read it, or was reading it.

So tell tell, what's it about?

      I've used magnesium taurinate and magnesium taurate vitamins.  Didn't notice much of a difference when I used them.

      More great tips, and a good excuse to shop at M&S and also buy more iced buns!   I wish we had an ASDA near us, as the few times we've been to one their gluten-free pasta range seemed very reasonably priced compared to other shops.  Thanks so much, @Russ H.

      I hope you are on the mend soon. About 1 in 5 people who contracted chicken pox as a child go on to develop shingles in later life - it is not uncommon. There are 5 known members of the herpes virus family including chicken pox that commonly infect humans, and they all cause lifelong infections. The exact cause of viral reactivation as in the case of shingles or cold sores is not well understood, but stress, sunburn and radiotherapy treatment are known triggers. Some of the herpes viruses are implicated in triggering autoimmune diseases: Epstein-Barr virus is suspected of triggering multiple sclerosis and lupus, and there is a case where it is suspected of triggering coeliac disease. As to whether coeliac disease can increase the likelihood of viral reactivation, there have been several cohort studies including a large one in Sweden suggesting that coeliac disease is associated with a moderate increase in the likelihood of developing shingles in people over the age of 50.
