Lynne - how are things today?? How ya feeling? Give us an update.

I just know you're going to figure this out and in the end, Karen is right, it just matters that you are THERE.

And, if you go the Cleopatra route in the throne, you can borrow the cute cops from the OMG thread to carry you in. ;)

Sending love and health and hugs....

Susie

Ok, sorry I dont know you well, but I wish you only the best. I also cried while reading Karens post. The most important thing is that you are there, but I find you to be a very strong woman to say that you will get down that aisle!

I hope your daughters wedding is beautiful and you enjoy it most of all!

Good luck and I hope you feel better soon!

Sorry for all your trouble :( When it rains, it pours!!!

Might I suggest a skateboard? :P

Or perhaps a razor scooter :lol:

Infinite hugs!!!

This won't help, but at my wedding, I was walked down the aisle by my mother who had had both knees replaced in December, and my 88 year old grandfather with a hip problem. I, of course, was on 4" stillettos on brick. I don't know who was walking who anywhere, we were all holding eachother up :lol:

And then my uncle the minister with the recently amputated foot presided...it was a comedy of orthopedic disaster :lol:

:lol::lol::lol: I can just picture all that in my head. :lol::lol::lol:

Lynne, I'm sending you lots of cyber (((((HUGS)))))).

Lynne- I KNOW you....and you will walk down the aisle because you are proud, stubborn and strong. My friend Mary's mom had been badly burned (3rd degree over 90% of her body-everything but her face) and spent two years in Mass General and then rehab. They told her she would never walk again. They told her she would "never" do a lot of things again- and she did them all- stubborn, proud, Irish woman :D .

She took her first public steps at Mary's wedding and despite that they were clumsy and awkward, they were the most beautiful steps I have EVER seen. Yours will be too. If you can't wear the shoes, get yourself a sexy toe ring and a pedicure and go for it. Maybe you could have your son on one side and Dave on the other. You will be beautiful!!!!!!!!

Obviously, if it's broken, disregrad everything I just said and go for the Cleopatra style carry down. That would be sexy! Especially if you were sipping a glass of champagne as you did it. Hang in there sweetie... you know we're all pulling for you. Hugs and lots of love, Beverly

Chelsea- your story is hysterical. :lol:

Carla -- Ash has already had the wedding dress thing happen . . . her future sister in law, who has the attitude of a cobra with PMS -- refused to try on her dress . . until two days ago -- and can't get it zipped past her mid-back, if that. Ashley was going to get her a wrap, so that she can just keep it covered all day, but then realized that it wouldn't work . . . so then, Ash had to go to Bridal shops and find her another one. . . and did, thank goodness.

Thanks for making me laugh guys . . . spent a portion of the day crying -- as you can imagine, and another portion just bellyaching!!!!!

Lucky for her it wasn't 10 minutes before the wedding was due to start!! In my wedding pics we have one of my mom and my grandma sewing dresses! My grandmother used to own a bridal shop, so my grandfather had just grabbed the sewing basket out of habit on his way out the door!!

Maybe you could go in on a platform like Pope John Paul II used to use. :P

:) Lynne, I hope it all goes well-wish I'd been able to get on sooner, perhaps a scooter chair would have fit down the aisle-I am sure you can rent one. I hope you feel better soon and not a long cellulitis ordeal like our dear Judy has been going through. Take care and enjoy yourself in Vegas, too.

      Get tested for vitamin deficiencies. Though neuropathy can be a symptom of celiac, it can also be caused by deficiencies due to poor digestion caused by celiac and could be easier to treat.

      We feel your pain. It took me 20+ years of regularly going to doctors desperate for answers only to be told there was nothing wrong with me … when I was 20 pounds underweight, suffering from severe nutritional deficiencies, and in a great deal of pain. I had to figure it out for myself. If you're in the U.S., not having an official diagnosis does mean you can't claim a tax deduction for the extra expense of gluten-free foods. But it can also be a good thing. Pre-existing conditions might be a reason why a health insurance company might reject your application or charge you more money. No official diagnosis means you don't have a pre-existing condition. I really hope you don't live in the U.S. and don't have these challenges. Do you need an official diagnosis for a specific reason? Else, I wouldn't worry about it. As long as you're diligent in remaining gluten free, your body should be healing as much as possible so there isn't much else you could do anyway. And there are plenty of us out here who never got that official diagnosis because we couldn't eat enough gluten to get tested. Now that the IL-2 test is available, I suppose I could take it, but I don't feel the need. Someone else not believing me really isn't my problem as long as I can stay in control of my own food.

      By AlwaysLearning · Posted

      If you're just starting out in being gluten free, I would expect it to take months before you learned enough about hidden sources of gluten before you stopped making major mistakes. Ice cream? Not safe unless they say it is gluten free. Spaghetti sauce? Not safe unless is says gluten-free. Natural ingredients? Who knows what's in there. You pretty much need to cook with whole ingredients yourself to avoid it completely. Most gluten-free products should be safe, but while you're in the hypersensitive phase right after going gluten free, you may notice that when something like a microwave meal seems to not be gluten-free … then you find out that it is produced in a shared facility where it can become contaminated. My reactions were much-more severe after going gluten free. The analogy that I use is that you had a whole army of soldiers waiting for some gluten to attack, and now that you took away their target, when the stragglers from the gluten army accidentally wander onto the battlefield, you still have your entire army going out and attacking them. Expect it to take two years before all of the training facilities that were producing your soldiers have fallen into disrepair and are no longer producing soldiers. But that is two years after you stop accidentally glutening yourself. Every time you do eat gluten, another training facility can be built and more soldiers will be waiting to attack. Good luck figuring things out.
