Author Connie Sarros Acknowledges Tina Turbin

Congratulations to Tina Turbin!

Some people accomplish extraordinary things. When they do, it’s nice to recognize them and applaud them for their accomplishments. Tina Turbin is one of those people. She’s well known by many of you because of her involvement in the celiac community.

Who is Tina Turbin?

Tina is an activist in two main fields: 1) She actively works to make improvements in children’s literacy and education, and 2) She works diligently to raise awareness about celiac disease. She speaks regularly on these topics on national radio shows and writes articles and columns for a wide variety of publications and websites. You can learn more about Tina at http://TinaTurbin.com.

Why the “Congratulations!”?

Tina wrote the award-winning children’s picture book Danny the Dragon Meets Jimmy. iSTORYTIME (the iPhone App Developer for Dreamworks) has recently signed to turn the DVD of this book into a children’s book app. This production is unique because its the first of its kind to have sign-language interpretation added for the deaf to assist this under-served population.

Imagination Publishing Group President Alan Wayne said, “I’m pleased to say that this is the first of many apps to be created through iStorytime for the Danny the Dragon series.” Profits from the sales of the Danny the Dragon DVD are donated to the Blossom Montessori School for the Deaf. Learn more about her books, DVD, and what she does to help celiacs at her website.

Congratulations Tina!

Tina Turbin is a Contributing Writer for the National Foundation for Celiac Awareness Newsletter

I have met many lovely people and companies involved with the topics of Celiac and Gluten Free.  The amount of helpful and caring individuals is astonishing. The basic intention to help others is what seems to unite us all: the care to make this subject more tolerable, palatable and acceptable.

I am honored as a writer and researcher to be a contributing writer for the National Foundation for Celiac Awareness Newsletter. Please sign up for their monthly newsletters and become involved in your own way, even if you care to simple be better informed. These Newsletters have a wealth of information. I hope you enjoy my monthly column.

Here is just a bit of what the NFCA is all about:  

Awareness brings treatment that, in turn, brings improvement of the quality of life for those with celiac disease and gluten intolerance. Our goal is to reduce the time to diagnosis and, in the process, reduce the devastating impact of undiagnosed celiac disease, including the contraction of others diseases such as cancer, diabetes, osteoporosis, and an “autoimmune cascade.”

 NFCA is affiliated with the leading researchers internationally and supports collaboration and partnership among scientists and institutions to optimize research potential with the goal of improving the quality of life for those who have celiac disease.

 Please visit www.celiaccentral.org and get better informed.
