The Silly Celiac A Blog for the Empowerment and Support of Those with Celiac Disease

Hello to all my loyal followers. Since my level of work has increased, my time to devote to the variety of topics Sink or Swim originally offered has been drastically limited. That being the case, I have decide to change things up on our little blog. Sink or Swim will soon be undergoing some dramatic renovations. Please bare with me and stand by for more information. I love you all and hope you'll stick with me through this adjustment period.

Hello, everyone. This page has been silent for quite a while, as I have been focusing on another portion of my writing career. I invite you all to like my professional writing page Medeiros Writing and keep up with my new endeavors. As I better maintain that and my new website medeiroswriting.com, I hope to revitalize this page and the blog to which it's connected. Thank you all for supporting me

"My last note on the subject is that each individual person dealing with a disability is far more than said disability. They can achieve whatever they so choose. They can accomplish great things, despite the barriers life has placed in their way. And, upon achieving their goals, they feel a greater sense of accomplishment because of what it took for them to get there."

Thoughts on disabilities You wouldn’t know it by looking at me, but I am a disabled citizen. I have a physical disability in my right arm as well as celiac disease which comes with a ridiculous amount of issues, and…
