About

My name is Kelly and I'm a momma of three (Georgia, Jack and Jason), living outside of Nashville, TN.  I created Raising Jack with Celiac soon after my son Jack was diagnosed with celiac disease in 2009.  Since Jack's diagnosis at only 2 years old, I developed a passion for raising awareness of the disease and helping those newly diagnosed feel a sense of comfort knowing they are not alone on this journey.

My husband, Jeff, (his story) was diagnosed with celiac disease in 2012.  With both my son and husband having celiac disease, I'm on a mission more than ever to provide a place where others can go to find resources, such as gluten-free recipes, gluten-free product reviews and most importantly, share our story of living with celiac disease -- and to encourage those with celiac disease to live a happy, healthy gluten-free lifestyle!
