I have a question for all our Jewish friends. I have always wonder what is the correct spelling of Chanukah or Hanukkah, as I have seen it both ways.

thanks for the happy hannukah wishes and happy hannukah to those who also celebrate it. we just lit our candles for the first time as a married couple!

here is a brief explanat about the spelling:

In Hebrew, the word Hanukkah is written חנכה or חנוכה. It is most commonly transliterated to English as Chanukkah or Hanukkah, the latter because the sound represented by "CH" (as in "loch") does not exist in the English language

Thanks Jess--I had wondered about that, too. :)

I have always wondered about that as well. Is there a "preferred" spelling, or are they interchangable?

Thanks, Debmidge!

I don't know that there is a preferred spelling--I have seen so many different spellings, I'm not sure I know which spelling I use! (Of course, that could be brainfog...)

      Celiac Disease Dietician

      By Denise I · Posted

      I am trying to find a Celiac Dietician who works with the Celiac Disease Foundation.  They don't have to be located in my area because I can do video visits. Can anyone help with this?

      Well, that's a big question. When he was seeing the nutrition response testing dr. that changed each time we went in. He hasn't been seeing him regularly for theist ten months. When he had a horribly week in March I started him back on the 4 that were suggested to keep him on. Those are: Standard Process Chlorophyll Complex gluten-free, SP A-F Betafood gluten-free, SP Tuna Omega-3 Oil gluten-free, And Advanced Amino Formula. He also takes a one a day from a company called Forvia (multivitamin and mineral) and Probiotic . Recently he had to start Vitamin D as well as he was deficient.

      Thank you again for your reply and comments which I have read carefully as I appreciate any input at this stage. I'm tending to listen to what my body wants me to do, having been in agony for many years any respite has been welcome and avoiding all wheat and lactose has thankfully brought this.  When in pain before I was seen by a number of gynacologists as I had 22 fibroids and had an operation 13 years ago to shrink them . However the pain remained and intensified to the point over the years where I began passing out. I was in and out of a&e during covid when waiting rooms where empty. My present diet is the only thing that's given me any hope for the future. As I say I had never heard of celiac disease before starting so I guess had this not come up in a conversation I would just have carried on. It was the swollen lymph node that sent me to a boots pharmacist who immediately sent me to a&e where a Dr asked questions prescribed antibiotics and then back to my GP. I'm now waiting for my hospital appointment . Hope this answers your question. I found out more about the disease because I googled something I wouldn't normally do, it did shed light on the disease but I also read some things that this disease can do. On good days I actually hope I haven't got this but on further investigation my mother's side of the family all Celtic have had various problems 're stomach pain my poor grandmother cried in pain as did her sister whilst two of her brother's survived WW2 but died from ulcers put down to stress of fighting.  Wishing you well with your recovery.  Many thanks
