<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> Greetings from New Bedford, Massachusetts,U.S.A. It was interesting listening to your story about being diagnosed in 1941. Recently I had an appointment with a Doctor Russell at New England Medical Center in Boston. He said that celiac disease was first discovered during the war, when children in Germany, who had been deprived of bread for lack of having enough, actually thrived and became healthier. So your story seems to be similar to his...at least it's the same time period. TAFN, Jan Chisholm New Bedford, MA, USA
