 Coming Later This Year

I am working on a book about my son's recovery after a near fatal car accident early last year. This book is not only therapeutic for me but is also an inspirational story that is meant to be shared.
It also includes the struggles I faced with getting him a proper gluten free diet in the hospital and in rehab once he was finally able to eat.

Adam's Gluten Free  Surprise  is about the acceptance that is required  by the child with a special diet and of the understanding required by those who  are important parts of his or her life.  We live in a world where the word "diet" is synonymous with "cheat a little".  It's difficult for many to understand that this is a diet that requires 100% adherence.  And with this  comes an emotional need to be understood, for whoever the person requiring this strict diet may be, whether one or one hundred years of age.

Follow Adam through the first six months of a new school year after discovering he has celiac.  
Adam offers children with food allergies and intolerances a positive role model as he faces classroom celebrations with a smile and "That's o.k.!".  But this book isn't just for kids.  Adam is also a great resource for teachers, family, babysitters and friends. 

Mrs. Brown was as surprised as everyone else with the special birthday treat that Emily’s mom brought. She apologized to Adam for not having a gluten free cupcake for him. He could choose something from his special box of gluten free treats though.

“There are ice cream cone crumbs in the ice cream. My mom always scoops mine out first. But that’s O.K. Mrs. Brown. I’ll pick something from my treat box.”

Gabe asked her what gluten was. Adam’s mom wrote Mrs. Brown’s name on the board, one letter under the other.

"That's O.K.!"My mom makes great gluten free cupcakes”, Adam said. “She told me she can send one in for me if she knows there will be a party. But that’s O.K. I like candy bars too. Thank you Mrs. Brown.”

“I think we have things right this time Adam”, said Mrs. Brown. “Your mom sent a gluten free cupcake and I checked with her on the ice cream cups. The brand is fine and they are sealed, so you can have one.”

The parents started to talk to Adam’s mom about why she brought his food separately and why she kept the rolls she brought for everyone so far from the rest of the food.

Find out how Adam's classmates learn about his diet and then decide to surprise him by making their Valentine's Day party completely gluten free.
