The Fair

[mouth]

Hi I am already pre registered for the fair. My question is this: I don't remember where any of the buildings are- I went there. Broadhollow Rd. is the Rte 110 or Melville Rd? Somebody help please-- Don't need to get lost trying to find Roosevelt Hall...

Thanx

Lynn

Morning Lynn--Rt 110 is Broad Hollow Rd--I hope that helps. Personally, I have never been to the college--the number is 2350 Broad Hollow--if you go to Mapquest and type in your address, then the college address, it will give you directions. I'm sure if you have been there before, then you will remember once you see the directions. Kev will tell me how to get there, so until now, I had not thought about it.

By the way, where do you live, I'm in East Islip. I'm looking forward to the fair again this year.

See you there!

Morning Lynn,

My kids are grown. Jeremy will be 33 in May, Mike 30, Nick 28, Joe 25, and Holly is 24. I have grandkids closer to your child's age. Three 9 yr olds, 7, 5, 3, and 5 months. My kids and grandkids all live in Michigan. I know that most of my kids, if not all would be much better off on a gluten free diet. My granddaughter Brooklyn has had 3 seizures and the doctors have not figured out what caused them yet, my grandson Colin has enamel problems with his teeth, the youngest Ethin, has been sick since he was born. The poor little guy has GERD, sleep apnea, doesn't utilize protein properly, is dairy free and soy free and he is only 5 months old. When I ask my kids to check into gluten as a possible cause, they just shake their heads. Two of my sons did ask their doctor to be tested for celiac disease and the doctor told one he doesn't look celiac (I guess he doesn't have 2 heads like the rest of us celiacs) and the other was told it isn't necessary for him to be tested at this time!

Hope to see you ar the fair--I will be one of the workers wearing the green t-shirts and the one with the longest hair!

Hey Deb,

Sounds Like your KIds/grandkids have their hands full!! I hope your sons decide to go for 2nd opinions, or get new peds. Maybe they should tell the doctors that it runs in your family== maybe that will get their attention!! My daughter was not well as a baby either. Ok, we will be there- look for the shortest lady 4-9 and my daughter is shorter.. see you soon. Lynn
