thinking of J and hoping to hear from her soon, and wishing Patti the best tomorrow morning!

"Response to Russian attack on Georgia"

An excited redneck ran into a Wal-mart store in Alabama over the weekend with a pocket full of cash demanding all the ammunition he can buy.

This caught the immediate attention of the store manager who arrived promptly at the sporting goods counter to assess the situation.

"Why do you need all this ammunition?" the manager asks the redneck.

"'Cause I just heard on CNN that the Russians have attacked Georgia--they gonna play h$ll if they attack Alabama!"

:lol::lol: This reminds me of what Jack exclaimed when we were watching the news, and there was footage of Russian tanks moving into Georgia. He said, "Oh my gawd..........what is Russia thinking?? A little southern state, minding their own business?!"

Patti, I've been thinking about you.....bet ya can't wait for tomorrow to be in the can. What time is your proceedure? I know you'll be a brave little soldier........ :)

Yes, I wonder if Jess is up and moving about.

The fact we haven't heard from Sarah could be a good thing...... . . maybe she's been very busy getting legal assistance and researching her position. Let's hope.............

This was my thought too.

My appointment's at 8:30, Em. Have to be there at 8. I'm hoping the bloodwork will be in also--she seemed to think it would be when I saw her on Friday.

Patti - this time tomorrow it will be over . . . here's hoping they find some answers (but nuttin' scary).

My neighboUr spent a couple of days in the hospital after her goil surgery . . . no guarentee that Jess is even home yet. Sure hoping that Sarah has gotten some legal counseling.

I'm in withdrawal. I have figured we were averaging about 50 emails/day for about 7 days . . . yep, that's right, I got about 350 emails (and that's what Nikki will be coming home to) . . . of course I'm not even sure I got all of them . . . and now today . . . just a pittance!!!

Thanks Jan-it :) I hope so too.

I know about the emails!! Twice in the last week I've had to clear out my inbox.... :P

If Nik's email account is anything like mine, she won't get half of what we sent her. Em, I just got one from you about an hour ago that I'm sure you sent yesterday :lol:

This is probably a little late, but could still come in handy next time any of you go straying out of Sillyville ;) .........actually, it would work well for those dealing with certain @#*!!$% men, too!

ANTI-STRESS EXERCISE

Picture yourself near a stream.......

birds are chirping in the crisp, cool mountain air......

nothing can bother you here.......

no one knows the secret place........

you are in total seclusion from that place called "the world"........

the soothing sound of a gentle waterfall fills the air with a cascade of serenity..........

the water is clear............

you can easily make out the face of the person whose head you're holding under water.

There now.......................feeling better? :D

My mom had an endoscopy and colonoscopy today, and she's just home, resting comfortably, feels fantastic, even though they stretched her esophagus (the purpose of the procedure - happens yearly for her). No polyps - she says they must come from my dad's side - my grandfather, brother, dad (died of colon cancer) and I have all had them.....he cut a BIG 'UN outta me during my procedure in '06. My GI said.......they ALL turn into cancer, over time. :o I did not know that.

<morbid statement coming>

There have been days, lately, when I wish he would have left it in. Why am I here??????????? :ph34r:

speaking of certain ba$tard men, someone mentioned to me today taht A$$hole's story (and the other orphaned children across the street) very well could make it into People magazine.

This, my friends, would have me..........homicidal. :lol::angry:

Glad mom's OK :D You arre here because you are loved.

If he makes it in People I will purposely eat gluten so I can PROJECTILE vomit from here to CA!!!!!!!! <_< <_< <_<

      Potential celiac need advice

      By itsdunerie · Posted

      Dang......did it again and yeah I should admit I am 63 with clumsy phone thumbs. I started feeling better quickly and a doctor a year later said I had to eat  poison (gluten) every day for a month so he could formally diagnose me and NO FREAKING WAY. I couldn't then and can't imagine putting my body through that crap (no pun intended) on purpose ever again.  Why ingest poison for a month to have some doctor say Hey, All you Have To Do Is Never Eat poison Again..

      By itsdunerie · Posted

      15 years ago my best friend 'diagnosed' me as Celiac. Her little nephew had been formally diagnosed and her observations of me dealing with brain fog, stomach problems and other stuff had her convincing me to try going gluten free. Oh my heavens, within 3 days, no lie, I felt human again. Took me about a y

      Potential celiac need advice

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It seems like you have two choices--do a proper gluten challenge and get re-tested, or just go gluten-free because you already know that it is gluten that is causing your symptoms. In order to screen someone for celiac disease they need to be eating gluten daily, a lot of it--they usually recommend at least 2 slices of wheat bread daily for 6-8 weeks before a blood screening, and at least 2 weeks before an endoscopy (a colonoscopy is no used to diagnose celiac disease). Normally the blood panel is your first step, and if you have ANY positive results there for celiac disease the next step would be to take biopsies of your villi via an endoscopy given by a gastroenterologist.  More info on the blood tests and the gluten challenge beforehand is below: The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:   Not to discourage you from a formal diagnosis, but once you are diagnosed it may lead to higher life and medical insurance rates (things will be changing quickly in the USA with the ACA starting in 2026), as well as the need to disclose it on job applications. While I do think it's best to know for sure--especially because all of your first degree relatives should also get screened for it--I also want to disclose some negative possibilities around a formal diagnosis that you may want to also consider.

      Yes.  Now, if you hit your finger with a hammer once, wouldn't you do your best not to do it again?  You have identified a direct connection between gluten and pain.  Gluten is your hammer.  Now you have to decide if you need a medical diagnosis.  Some countries have aid benefits tgat you can get if you have the diagnosis, but you must continue eating a gluten-normal diet while pursuing the diagnosis. Otherwise the only reason to continue eating gluten is social. There are over 200 symptoms that could be a result of celiac disease.. Celiac Disease and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity  both cause multiple vitamin and mineral deficiency.  Dealing with that should help your recovery, even while eating gluten.  Phosphatidyl Choline supplements can help your gut if digesting fats is a problem,  Consider that any medications you take could be causing some of the symptoms, aside from gluten.
