How unfortunate that TIME magazine got this so wrong -- celiac disease is
not an allergy.
I can't believe the 'expert' from Iowa would have permitted such an
inaccurate description.
It is disappointing, but I think the main issue here is to be happy that a
magazine as widely circulated as TIME would have an article about Celiac
Disease. There was a mistake in the article, however I think the bottom line is
that this is good news- Celiac Disease is getting more and more publicity.
I wrote a letter to the editor thanking him for the article and correcting
the mistake, but making sure the letter was mainly in appreciation for writing
the article in the first place. I think that is the best way to go- to look
at the positive side and encourage the publicity of Celiac Disease. Nasty
letters will just make matters worse.
