Agreed- and in the grand scheme of things celiac is a completely manageable and minor inconvenience. A lot of how I feel about it is more me projecting my sympathy/pity on her because she is always going to have to think about where/what she eats and how it can impact socializing. Even though she is young she generally has a great attitude about it, and I can even say it has benefitted me as I have become a much better cook by figuring out how to make delicious gluten free cuisine. Obviously rice based dishes are pretty easy, but when you are making fresh breads or things like fried chicken, just substituting a gluten free flour doesn't always come out very well.
