During a recent visit to my gluten-free house, my mother told me, "Wheat is evil - I understand that now."....and it only took a year of severe migraines, bloating, and general "blah"-ness to get her to realize this important fact.

The biggest thing for my mom is that she's in her 70's and raised to accept anything given to her when she's in someone else's house. I keep telling her, "Mom, you can say, 'No thank you. I'm allergic.' People will understand." She's finally catching on....

(She also can't seem to turn down sweets....but that's another story. ;-) )

I hope you feel better. As they say, "This too shall pass...." I just hope it happens quickly for you!
