I have come across the reference to Autoimmune Disorders and giftedness a few times and was curious if anyone else's children, or yourselves, suffer with a disorder.

I first took particular notice of this observation after my DD was diagnosed with Crohns Disease in 2006. Now my DS has been diagnosed with CD. I personally have no doubt that there is a genetic link at work here although much of the literature is very hazy on this, but since they are also gifted I wondered how many others may also have this connection.

I hope not to offend anyone by asking this personal question and I apologise if I have done so.
