oh you guys....House of Terror is an awful, awful story...don't want to take over this thread....actually would require more like a book to tell what happened and how it changed my life - no, changed ME forever - and not in good ways.

(edited - I posted about it and then TOOK IT OFF!!! it's Bev's thread!!) :)

Yes -Bev - puppies, bounding through the snow!! that's what you need!

We could start a new thread called House of Terrors. really. But it's not MY thread...this is a community Dingo chick!!!! Vent away (unless of course it's something you'd rather forget!).........

Puppies (gluten-free like Patti's kitty) bounding through my backyard and kissing my face........ :D:D:D

Oh, you should have left it ... I should have quoted it sooner!! I did read it.

There's a haunted house around the corner from mine. A lady I know lived there for a while because it was the only vacant house in town when they move here (wonder why!). She has all kinds of stories. A man murdered his wife there, she haunts it, but just seems to like living there. A restaurant tried to move in, but closed down. Now there's a tea shop there. My son worked there all summer and nothing happened. I think this Victorian lady might like the fact that there's a tea shop in her old house, but she definately didn't like my friend's cat. :blink:

As for the puppies ... I think they're much more work than kids!! All the dogs we've ever had were a total pain in the neck!! Not that I don't like dogs ... I think pets are good. I have birds ... they like to cuddle, but they're noisy and messy.

Well......MY House of TError was a terrible thing (Carla - you read it! :ph34r: ) and resulted in what we fondly know as Susie's Nervous Breakdown. Not kidding....it was the most difficult thing I've ever lived through and while I can easily talk about it, not everyone really knows how to process or deal with someone's nervous breakdown.....but I have pondered starting a perky little thread on the forum called:

"Nervous Breakdowns - Who Here Has Had One? Let's Share Our Experiences!" :) ha ha ha - didn't think it would elicit too many responses - - I am being playful here but it was beyond horrendous and I dont' think I'll ever be the same...need nothing short of a miracle for that.

As for puppies, yes Carla, so much work...but there is a book I got when I got Tika, she was 9 weeks - it's called The Art of Raising A Puppy, written by the Monks of New Skete, who raise champion German Shepards. Best book I've ever read on selecting/raising/training/care of dogs - both my dogs were house-trained within three days, and have pretty impecable manners. Took TONS of work with my older girl - she was the most wickedly playful and strong-willed dog for the first few years, anyone else would have given her away.....

Sorry Beverly that so many difficult things are going on with the people in your life and around you. You've had your fair share as well.

Susie, house of terror and nervous breakdowns? I must have missed that thread :lol:

As for puppies, I am going back and forth on getting another one. I lost mine (my 11 year old puppy :lol:) a year and a half ago and it was so hard.

Susan, I did read it, but you didn't give much detail other than you felt every minute like you would feel if a man wearing a hockey mask and had a knife was hovering over your bed. It was like a teaser really ... I expected, tune in next week for the rest of the story!

I haven't been on in awhile and my account got deleted. But I'm baccckkk!

I just need to vent here. I just can't believe some of the things that people I know and care about are going through right now. We found this week that my good friend and old neighbor has such a rare form of blood cancer that there is NO name for it????????????WTF?????????????? It has spread to his lungs, stomach, colon and liver but since it's this unknown type of blood cancer that they can't even stage him and they have no idea what his prognosis is.

Then tonight, one of my friends in graduate school, who I had emailed for support because I'm having my exam defense on Monday and I thought I was stressed out, let me know that her baby (she's 4 months pregnant) has severe heart valve problems so they are seeing a specialist at Children's Hospital on Monday.

what is going on? I keep thinking things have just got to calm down for awhile and they never do.

Sad.

ack.. just reminded me I need to call my uncle!

Susie Girl- You CAN start a thread about Nervous Breakdowns. I'll bet there's more than one of us that for multiple reasons had had one or close to one.

I'm sorry you had such a scary experience! I do have some good news for a change today- I'll start a new thread (see I'm oficially a PhD candidate!). It, of course, was a bittersweet moment. My fourth committee member was Chelsea, the sweet doggie of one of my committee members. Right after my meeting she had to be put to sleep so it was like "Congratulations, you passed!" and then I had to say good bye to her. :( And I so wanted to call my mom. So, I told Chelsea that my mom would take good care of her when she got to Heaven.

But I want to focus on the good so I'm going to start a new thread. Life really is bittersweet.

Oh Bev....congrats to you (I posted on your other thread already) and so sad about the doggie. :( so he was there for your review, huh? is that why you passed? :)

OMG a nervous breakdown thread..yes I have at times used this forum as my online "personal" journal (that all the world can see) but that really is too much.... :o It could scare people!

      Fighting for a name

      By Jmartes71 · Posted

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.

      Scott I also have different symptoms than most people. It affects me bad. Stomach ache, headache, nauseous, heart racing, whole body shaking, can't walk then my throat starts to close. It attacks my nervous system. The only thing that saves me is a 1/2 of Xanax...it calms down my nervous system

      Scott Adams. I was dealing with a DR that didn't care about me being celiac. I repeatedly told him that I was celiac and is everything gluten-free. He put an acrylic lens from j&j. I called the company to ask about gluten and was told yes that the acrylic they use has gluten....then they back tracked immediately and stopped talking to me. The Dr didn't care that I was having issues. It took me 6 months and a lot of sickness to get it removed.... which can only happen within 6 months. The Dr that took it out said that it was fused and that's why I lost vision. If they would have removed it right away everything would be fine. He put in a silicone one that was gluten-free and I've had no issues at all in the other eye. Do not do acrylic!
