[old and tired]

There is a boy in our parish with celiac disease. If the Precious Blood is not to be distributed at a Mass, he simply approaches the altar before or after the congregation (depending on whether or not he's serving as an altar boy to receive Our Lord from the chalice.

It's no big deal. The only way it would be a big deal would be if his parents made him feel like a freak instead of a faithful Catholic doing what he has to do.

[Notwithstanding]

Buts its so much more interesting and fun to declare " I am a victim", or even more fun to declare "my kid is a victim"
