Hi! My son was has had celiac disease since he was 2 yrs. old and he is thirteen years old now. I would like to know if any one knows of a camp in South Jersey, where we live, that he could attend. I would like for him to be introduce to children that have celiac and that he is not alone. Also, does anyone know of a support group in the area that we can attend. Please let me know. This messageboard is great because when my son was first diagnois there was no information about this disease. Lorraine

Hi, I'm Jackie and I'm 14 years old. I go to a sleepover camp in the Toronto, Canada area called Wahanowin.

If you're interested, there's me and one other Celiac there:

Feel free to talk to me anytime!

Jackie

      Thanks for your input. 
    • trents
      If you have hemorrhoids 1x weekly I don't see how you have time to heal from one episode before you experience another one, unless each one is a very minor event. Have you consulted a physician about your hemorrhoid issue? It's not normal to be having an episode every week unless it is really one episode that is not completely healing between weekly flareups.
    • Churro
      No I haven't had one since 2021. I rarely have more than 1 per week. 
    • trents
      Sorry, I see that now as I reread your original post. You say you have hemorrhoids "only once a week" now. When I develop hemorrhoids, which is once every few years now, it generally takes 3-4 days for healing to take place. So, it doesn't seem like you could have much relief time between episodes if you have them weekly. Have you had a lower GI scoping done recently?
    • Churro
      Everyday I eat a medium to large apple in the morning and a large banana at night. I eat a cup of oatmeal in the evening. The ezekiel wheat bread I eat has a good amount of fiber. I haven't dealt with constipation for at least a year. Most of the time my feces are soft.
