Miscellaneous Notes:
--------------------
President's Corner: I want to take this opportunity to wish each and
every one of you the best of the Holiday Season. Please have a
healthy, gluten-free holiday. Again, take the extra time to check
with your family members to ensure that what you are eating is
gluten-free. Be sure to NOT eat the filling of a pie with gluten
crust, or any turkey that has been stuffed with gluten bread stuffing.
There were 13 of us that attended the Celiac Awareness day in Lansing,
and I can only encourage each of you to try to attend next year. It
will again be in October, and if we know ahead of time, possibly we
can get some information out to our libraries, newspapers, etc. The
more people that are aware of Celiac Disease, the better our lives
will be.
Five of us attended the Columbus conference and it was wonderful as
usual. It's great fun meeting old friends and also making new ones.
We had the chance to meet Ann Whelan and really enjoyed that also.
She is very upbeat and a great asset to the Celiac community.
I strongly urge you to attend a conference next year. We have great
opportunities emerging. Happy Holidays to all of you.--Mary Guerriero
