Does Anyone Have "eating Gluten Free With Emily?"


Sierra's Mommy

Hello:

Thought I'd toss this out to see if anyone could lend me this book. Our six year old was diagnosed with Celiac last week, and she will be returning to school tomorrow after a week's break, while she healed. Her first grade class wants to know what's been wrong with Sierra, and the teacher has asked me to come in to speak. I have tried to find this book everywhere....libraries, EBay, Barnes & Noble, Borders, etc. It is back ordered or temporarily out of stock. Amazon says it can get it to me in April.

Does anyone have a copy they could ship? I promise to take very good care of it and return it promptly. I will gladly pay postage both ways, as well. Let me know if you can help us out. It sounds like such a great tool, especially since it's a little girl close to my own little girl's age.

If anyone else knows where I can find a copy in stock, please let me know.

Thanks!

:D Yippee...I found it at a library outside of our county (but still only a 20 minute) drive. They're holding it for me; plus I have it on order from Amazon, so my dd can have her own copy.

I am glad you found it! Are you thinking about taking in samples/examples of non-gluten food/items for a show and tell? The kids would probably like that. I used to have a day care, my own kids are 17/20, but I always think about the little kids out there. I feel for you guys with all that you have to go thru with school. We just started gluten-free last year.

Happy reading :)

We found that book at the library & it was great! My dd brought it to her preschool & they had a great time reading about it & discussing it. It really helped the kids understand what dd has & why.

Not sure how old your child is, but we brought gluten-free food boxes for her preschools "grocery store" & it was fun for dd to have to shop for gluten-free foods at school :)

GL!

We have it and it's a great book. I wish that they would also make a "Eating Gluten Free with Ethan" or something....my 5 yo hates to have to lug around his "girlie" book, lol.

      Celiac disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result.  I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned?  Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous damage, too! In my own case, my consultant wasn't remotely concerned - in fact, he said I might still get this result even if all I ever did was eat nothing but rice and water.   My coeliac blood tests were still steadily improving, albeit slowly, which was reassuring.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease or gluten/oats exposure. See attachment. But you might try eliminating oats to start with and possibly dairy for a few months and then seek another endoscopy/biopsy to see if there was a reduction in lymphocyte counts.

      This is a solid, well-reasoned approach. You’re right that “koji” by itself doesn’t indicate gluten status, and the risk really does come down to which grain is used to culture it. The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especially since Eden has a long-standing reputation for transparency. While the lack of gluten labeling can understandably give pause, manufacturer confirmation like this is often what people rely on for traditionally fermented products. As always, trusting your body after trying it is reasonable, but based on the information you gathered, your conclusion makes sense.
