A confirmed diagnosis of celiac disease was delayed for me, partly due to somewhat atypical presentations. My discovery of CD in 2004 and journey, was greatly assisted by help from the Denver Celiac Support Group. Early on, I served in various positions – book sales, medical committee and helped with the Gluten Free Product list. After being absent for some years, I want to give back to this group. My husband, Paul, and I have two grown children. We enjoy the outdoors and have various science interests. I am a recently retired science teacher, volunteer at DMNS and am part of an education team for an active Mars orbiter mission.
