When I turned 13, I had a Bat Mitzvah and for my mitzvah project I decided to make a brochure for kids with Celiac Disease. When I was diagnosed all of the information they gave me on Celiac was scary. It was geared towards adults and I didn’t understand it. I decided that for my mitzvah project I was going to make a brochure for kids to explain Celiac Disease in a more kid friendly way. I also set up an email address kidsceliachelp@comcast.net for people to email to email and ask questions. My brochure was distributed to newly diagnosed patients at the University of Maryland Medical Center and St Barnabus Hospital.  I also received a gold star from the University of Maryland for my brochure. I decided for this Thursday I would post the brochure I created for the hospitals to distribute. It is extremely outdated, especially with how common Gluten Free has become, but some of the explanations I think are still very valid!
