A celiac reaction will likely cause 48 hours of diarrhea, cramping, dehydration, and/or vomiting. Extreme weakness, headaches, body aches, hives, etc….it’s like the flu + food poisoning.
The “D” is extreme & impossible to control. My child and husband are both Celiac. We have had to pull over on the side of the road, it’s awful.
Here is what would be helpful:
1) Offer gift certificates instead of providing food.
2) reduce cost of
Event and do not serve food.
3) compile a list of local restaurants that offer gluten free menus and keep handy.
Here are some reliable GFree options (from Rome, Ga):
1) Jimmy John’s lettuce wrap sub
2) Mexican restaurants with corn tortillas (no chips due to cross contamination 🙁
3) Chik Fil A grilled chicken w/ Gluten Free bun
4) Outback steak &
salad, no seasonings on steak and no salad dressing.
Hope that is helpful!
