Life without gluten

AUBURN - When Nicki Hai's daughter, Jessica, was 16 months old, her life got a whole lot more complicated.

Jessica, who is now 4, was diagnosed at the time with celiac disease. The condition leads to a severe intolerance to gluten, which is found in wheat, malt, rye and other grains.

Imagine raising a child who is allergic to bread, pasta, cereal, and many processed foods. It is not easy, Hai said.
