There is an illness where a person is unable to eat wheat. It's is such that if you eat wheat you will get so ill you may die. This illness is not fabricated. I have heard of it and known people who have had it.
I think it's rather heroic of the family to stand by their daughter and demand that the chruch pay attention to health concerns. I too was a Roman Catholic and have found the church less than flexible.
We will see.
