I'm in a good moment right now, so I take these little pockets of time and do the things I need to do (help my mom with the financial stuff, eat something, try to exercise the dogs). At the top of this list is talking to you guys.

Thank you so much, dear buddies, for all the support you have given me. I will be okay because of friends like you, and the family I truly cannot believe that I have.

I think I won't be staying good for too long right now, so here is a clip of the memorial service - - an event was just what we wanted. Click on the button below the screen on the right that says something about "Memorial".........

Um, the camera puts on ten pounds.

And it makes one's hair look ridiculous.

AND I did NOT have the zit that appears to be on my chin.

What a beautiful tribute to your beloved Dad.

Watching it I kept going between :(:):(:rolleyes:

I would imagine your emotions are and were doing the same .

I so enjoyed seeing the clip of the celebration of life and getting to see you & your Mom and Sister.

I'd checked out your links before but NOW I REALLY remember seeing him on TV when I saw the clips of him with the mustach. I so enjoyed that show.

I hope you will take care of yourself as you go about these next few days and weeks. It was great to see you post.

many HUGS...........DEAR SILLY BUDDY.

Judy

Hi Em: love :wub: and {{{{hugs}}} to you.

Thank you for taking the time to share with us a little of the celebration of your dad's life. I had never seen your dad before, but from just the short clips shown I could see that he was a very special person who will be greatly missed. Incidentally, you looked great!!! Take care, luv, and enjoy the time with your family; it's times like these we really appreciate 'em.

A lovely tribute. If you watch carefully, about half-way through, Emily's children pass through the picture on the right-hand side--Sophie phirst, with Jack right behind her.

I had to go back and look . . . I had noticed Sophie but had failed to see Jack right behind.

Very Nice Em . . . and there's no doubt that he's passed on his sense of humour . . . thank you for sharing.

Morning all, peeps . . .

sorry 'bout them glass-filled fudgecicles, Bev

FIL and step-MIL are due to arrive on Saturday. Somebody needs to come over and clean my house!!! Apparently, nobody here is going to do it!!! This is why I had children!!! so they can clean my house . . . I have to tell you that when I was a kid, I actually thought that mom and dad had kids so they wouldn't have to do dishes or clean the house anymore.

wwwhhhhiiiiiiiinnnnnnnneee

Did youse guys know that chickens pant?

Cats are furious with me for making it so hot, but too limp to do anything more than a pitiful mmmmooowwl when I walk by.

Our overnight lows are what our normal highs should be. And yes I know it's hot lots of places, but keep in mind that people don't have air conditioning. Many business don't either. Our buildings are designed to garner heat (black roofs and such), not repel it.

We're just not made for this sort of thing up here.

AANNNDD conversations have become incredibly dull. "Did you have a breeze last night?" "What's your house like?" "I'm too hot to do anything." "Can I just stay on the ferry all day?"

One of our ferry crew admitted she took a cab home -her house is a 7 minute walk from the boat...

:lol: I thought exactly the same thing. Except I know they had only me because they were still trying for a boy, and since I couldn't accomplish that pheat without expensive surgery, I'd darned well better make meselph usephul.

I know--I was thinking how lucky I was because at least here everything is air conditioned and although it's oppressive outside, it's easy to escape it and be comfortable. Youse guys have to be absolutely wilting. :( And the poor kitties wif their phur coats....

I grew up in central NY, and it was kinda that same way back then--unless you were rich, you didn't have A/C at home and gawd forbid, in cars. It got really hot maybe one week out of the year, and that was quite enough.....we lived in a small ranch house, and at the beginning of every summer my parents scrubbed and painted the garage floor.

We ate dinner out there, and us kids slept there on cots and lounge chairs. :lol: We had a screen across the overhead door opening, and it was at least 10 degrees cooler there than in the house. It was attached to our kitchen by a doorway, and while it sounds awful, it was our "summer room"--complete wif portable TV. :rolleyes:

Can't believe I just admitted that :lol:

Must be the heat.

dear gawd :lol::unsure: this really is untenable, isn't it? how do you guys DO it? I'd have to install a window cooler in my bedroom, and NEVER leave there........call in sick every day until heat wave passes......what's the temp up there, BTW? my niece lives there also....thinks it's crazy that the city of SEattle hasn't taken advantage of this thing called AIR CONDITIONING

I would go stark, raving, blazes BONKERS - no relief from heat makes me mad as a cracker

They're predicting hitting 101 today. Has happened once in recorded history...

Amending this to say, has never hit 101, has hit 100 three times.

I think the worst when it's that hot is trying to sleep at night..... :(

I think I'd be spending an inordinate amount of time perusing the frozen phood dept at the grocery store. B)

      You might consider asking for a referral to a RD (Registered Dietician) to help with food choices and planning a diet. Even apart from any gluten issues, you will likely find there are some foods you need to avoid because of the shorter bowel but you may also find that your system may make adjustments over time and that symptoms may improve.
    • Ello
      I wish Dr’s would have these discussions with their patients. So frustrating but will continue to do research. Absolutely love this website. I will post any updates on my testing and results.  Thank you
    • trents
      Losing 12" of your small bowel is going to present challenges for you in nutritional uptake because you are losing a significant amount of nutritional absorption surface area. You will need to focus on consuming foods that are nutritionally dense and also probably look at some good supplements. If indeed you are having issues with gluten you will need to educate yourself as to how gluten is hidden in the food supply. There's more to it than just avoiding the major sources of gluten like bread and pasta. It is hidden in so many things you would never expect to find it in like canned tomato soup and soy sauce just to name a few. It can be in pills and medications.  Also, your "yellow diarrhea, constipation and bloating" though these are classic signs of a gluten disorder, could also be related to the post surgical shorter length of your small bowel causing incomplete processing/digestion of food.
    • Ello
      Yes this information helps. I will continue to be pro active with this issues I am having. More testing to be done. Thank you so much for your response. 
    • trents
      There are two gluten-related disorders that share many of the same symptoms but differ in nature from each other. One is known as celiac disease or "gluten intolerance". By nature, it is an autoimmune disorder, meaning the ingestion of gluten triggers the body to attack it's own tissues, specifically the lining of the small bowel. This attack causes inflammation and produces antibodies that can be detected in the blood by specific tests like the TTG-IGA test you had. Over time, if gluten is not withheld, this inflammation can cause severe damage to the lining of the small bowel and even result in nutrient deficiency related health issues since the small bowel lining is organ where all the nutrition found in our food is absorbed.  The other is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity or just "gluten sensitivity") which we know less about and are unsure of the exact mechanism of action. It is not an autoimmune disorder and unlike celiac disease it does not damage the lining of the small bowel, though, like celiac disease, it can cause GI distress and it can also do other kinds of damage to the body. It is thought to be more common than celiac disease. Currently, we cannot test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out to arrive at a diagnosis of NCGS. Both disorders require elimination of gluten from the diet.  Either of these disorders can find their onset at any stage of life. We know that celiac disease has a genetic component but the genes are inactive until awakened by some stress event. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% develop active celiac disease. The incidence of NCGS is thought to be considerably higher. I hope this helps.
