I was diagnosed last year with Celiac. It is a highly hereditary disease! Gluten is hiding in a billion places that you wouldn't even think of and cross-contamination is a huge concern as well...especially at first. Separate toaster, basically dcks food needs to be prepared in it's own sanitized section of your kitchen. Even rice....plain rice is fine, but packages almost always have gluten. Natural is the way to go. If it turns out that it is celiac I'm sure mom will guide...basically you have to be hyper-anal! Has mom started dck on a gluten-free diet? If she plans on testing him, he'll need gluten in his diet still.....
