Celiac Dad to the Rescuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuue!
Gilli's pretty much packed and ready to go to camp starting on Sunday. Before I get into it, you might want to read the posts I've put up. Short summary -
Gillian was diagnosed with Celiac disease about a month before my accident, and thankfully with a change in diet, is relatively normal. As long as she is careful about what she eats, she's got a nice, healthy, long life ahead of her. No meds or treatments. Just can't digest gluten - makes her puke....spectacularly. I mean it - rainbows and everything 
So we were thinking of taking a camping trip this summer, so I wanted to look up information about anyone who had been camping with Celiac. Found a few places that had some tricks, a place that had all of the exact ingredients for a REALLY tasty gluten free s'more. Searching for other stuff, I came across the website for a Celiac CAMP! Originally I was going to volunteer, but they already had enough people.
The great thing about it is for a whole week, Gillian will not have to ask "Can I eat this" or "Does that have gluten in it?" She won't have to have special food, or have different plates, or worry about just being DIFFERENT!! For a week, she'll be just like everyone else and hopefully make a lot of friends and have a great freakin time.
While we sit in an empty house, pining for them both. Oh yeah, forgot to mention. My sister is in town from Chicago and Aidan is going to my Moms in Long Beach to hang out for the week. I'm leaving Sunday morning, dropping off Fae at a friends house, taking Gillian and Aidan with me to drop Gilli off at camp in Rhode Island, turning around and driving to Long Beach to my Mom's house. I'll work from my Aunts house (right across the compound) and then go into the office from there on Tues am and go home afterward.
Going to be a quiet week
