Hmm mine is very borring. :) When I was in 9th grade I had to write a story about an alien that visited the Earth, so I named him by randomly iserting and removing letters from my frist name and came up with "Vydor". Later I wanted to regesiter on an astronomy forum, but my name was to short, so I added "Scope" to the end of it (which is comon slang for a telescope amongst cool ppl :P ).

I think my real name is more intresting cause if you translate it to its meaning, rougly you get "Victorus Conquer (of) Goldfish!" So all you ppl's with Koi pounds watch out ! :lol:

I like to paint and draw (watercolor, pencil, colored pencil and ink). Other artsie names were already taken so I ended up with this one. I kind of like it.

My mum can never remember whether my name starts with a K or a C, so she will use both, even in the same card. So it had to be Kaycee.

I just can't figure out what my mums problem is, she named me, so why or how can she get it wrong?

Cath (I think that's right)

I am mildly dyslexic and have never been a good speller. I named my son Jeffrey (or was that Jeffery) and for the life of me I can't be absolutely certain how I spelled it for his birth certificate. I often called him Jeff-er-ee - so that confused me even more. Yeah, can relate to your mother's spelling problems.

Aeon - I've always loved the ae combination character too. There was someone on a message board that I used to go to named Maendi, which was her real name. I never did figure out how she pronounced it though.

Jules - I LOVE (!!!) the squiggles. I wish I would have thought of that. I may borrow the idea someday.

I've used Nantzie as a username since the dawn of time; since around 1995. It comes from my childhood. A friend of mine and I were being goofy with our names one day. She decided to be Melon-E and said I should be Nan-Z. We decided after saying my name a thousand times (like ya do...) that there was definitely a T in there somewhere and it evolved from there. I like it because I never have a problem finding a username that nobody has taken. B)

I've thought about figuring out a different username. Maybe I'll change it to Naentzie or ~Nancy~ someday. :D

Nancy

Naentzie! Oh I love it. I can just see the vein sticking out in someones forehead as they try to figure that out. :lol:

LOL, I used a sling, cook from scratch (don't bake though), and have six kids .... odds are you homeschool ... right? I did for ten years ...

I have homeschooled a couple of times, but public school is a good fit for us at this point! :)

It is kinda fun to watch someone's eyes roll up in their head when I give my email address to someone already. If I throw in the ae, I can only imagine...

Reminds me of that Steve Martin movie with Sarah Jessica Parker. Her name was SaNDeE - "Big S, small a, big N, big D, little e, Big E, and then I put a little heart at the end." Sounds like a username to me...

That is also why I must ALWAYS use red font, its the colour of the Habs :P

Can you tell I like jeans. I must have about 30 pair. I won't buy sweats cuz they only look good the first couple times you wear them then they shrink and look sloppy. I have two sisters with the same obsession and we always talk about making a trip to Chicago and spending the whole day trying on jeans and eating.

Melannen is my name in Sindarin Elvish (according to Open Original Shared Link). There were a couple translations of Jessica (my real name) to choose from, but I liked Melannen best. Literally translated it means "Beloved One".

when my husband and I were dating, he suddenly called me snapple one day. I looked at him and very stupidly asked "Are you thirsty?" he said no, so I asked him what he meant. He told me he called me snapple because of their slogan "made from the best stuff on earth". I don't care who you are, that will make you melt ( I know I did). Anyway, I used it because I figured there were a ton of Kates out there but no snapples. Plus, it still makes me melt when he calls me that.

Mango, I know what a mango is, and I know what a tiki is, but is it the same tiki as in a New Zealand souvenir?

      In the study linked above, the little girl switched to a gluten free diet and gained enough weight that that fat pad was replenished and surgery was not needed.   Here's the full article link...

      Hello, @Jordan Carlson, So glad you're feeling better.   Tecta is a proton pump inhibitor.  PPI's also interfere with the production of the intrinsic factor needed to absorb Vitamin B12.  Increasing the amount of B12 you supplement has helped overcome the lack of intrinsic factor needed to absorb B12. Proton pump inhibitors also reduce the production of digestive juices (stomach acids).  This results in foods not being digested thoroughly.  If foods are not digested sufficiently, the vitamins and other nutrients aren't released from the food, and the body cannot absorb them.  This sets up a vicious cycle. Acid reflux and Gerd are actually symptoms of producing too little stomach acid.  Insufficient stomach acid production is seen with Thiamine and Niacin deficiencies.  PPI's like Tecta also block the transporters that pull Thiamine into cells, preventing absorption of thiamine.  Other symptoms of Thiamine deficiency are difficulty swallowing, gagging, problems with food texture, dysphagia. Other symptoms of Thiamine deficiency are symptoms of ADHD and anxiety.  Vyvanse also blocks thiamine transporters contributing further to Thiamine deficiency.  Pristiq has been shown to work better if thiamine is supplemented at the same time because thiamine is needed to make serotonin.  Doctors don't recognize anxiety and depression and adult onset ADHD as early symptoms of Thiamine deficiency. Stomach acid is needed to digest Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) in fruits and vegetables.  Ascorbic acid left undigested can cause intestinal upsets, anxiety, and heart palpitations.   Yes, a child can be born with nutritional deficiencies if the parents were deficient.  Parents who are thiamine deficient have offspring with fewer thiamine transporters on cell surfaces, making thiamine deficiency easier to develop in the children.  A person can struggle along for years with subclinical vitamin deficiencies.  Been here, done this.  Please consider supplementing with Thiamine in the form TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) which helps immensely with dysphagia and neurological symptoms like anxiety, depression, and ADHD symptoms.  Benfotiamine helps with improving intestinal health.  A B Complex and NeuroMag (a magnesium supplement), and Vitamin D are needed also.

      @pothosqueen, Welcome to the tribe! You'll want to get checked for nutritional deficiencies and start on supplementation of B vitamins, especially Thiamine Vitamin B 1.   There's some scientific evidence that the fat pad that buffers the aorta which disappears in SMA is caused by deficiency in Thiamine.   In Thiamine deficiency, the body burns its stored fat as a source of fuel.  That fat pad between the aorta and digestive system gets used as fuel, too. Ask for an Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity test to look for thiamine deficiency.  Correction of thiamine deficiency can help restore that fat pad.   Best wishes for your recovery!   Interesting Reading: Superior Mesenteric Artery Syndrome in a 6-Year-Old Girl with Final Diagnosis of Celiac Disease https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31089433/#:~:text=Affiliations,tissue and results in SMAS.

      Wow! You're pretty young to have a diagnosis of SMA syndrome. But youth also has its advantages when it comes to healing, without a doubt. You might be surprised to find out how your health improves and how much better you feel once you eliminate gluten from your diet. Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that, when gluten is consumed, triggers an attack on the villous lining of the small bowel. This is the section of the intestines where all our nutrition is absorbed. It is made up of billions of tiny finger-like projections that create a tremendous surface area for absorbing nutrients. For the person with celiac disease, unchecked gluten consumption generates inflammation that wears down these fingers and, over time, greatly reduces the nutrient absorbing efficiency of the small bowel lining. This can generate a whole host of other nutrient deficiency related medical problems. We also now know that the autoimmune reaction to gluten is not necessarily limited to the lining of the small bowel such that celiac disease can damage other body systems and organs such as the liver and the joints and cause neurological problems.  It can take around two years for the villous lining to completely heal but most people start feeling better well before then. It's also important to realize that celiac disease can cause intolerance to some other foods whose protein structures are similar to gluten. Chief among them are dairy and oats but also eggs, corn and soy. Just keep that in mind.
