The spruce is spectacular, different and amusing; and dad loved crabapple trees.

Either will be poifect. :)

Emily, I lurve the idea of the weeping crabapple. No reason in particular, only that they are so pretty in the spring--joyous and colorful, a fitting tribute :)

today my mouth still hurts and it feels like the skin is burned......lovely!

Sheesh! How are feeling now? Sounds like you had a scary night, poor thing :(

Nikki! How is Tel feeling? (snicker) You gots to watch that cider--much more potent than, say, lemonade :rolleyes:

How about no undies?

I vote weeping crab.

I never knew a peach could do that! You poor thing.

I now know why I've turned into a Blue Sue. My DH ( and that doesn't stand for dear) has been a blastard since he quit smoking last Sun. I've been tiptoeing around and he's been blowing up about every little thing. I thaught by now, he'd settle down, but last night he was HORRIBLE! I fixed a nice steak dinner and after he literally exploded Into some kind of extreme rage over nothing that ended with him telling me to leave. Yeh, like that's going to happen. So, I woke up this am all sad and depressed thinking about where to go and not wanting to bring you all down but then thaught I'm not going to let him get me down. Got to find my cilli.

I think my anti-thong fellings stem from Jeolosy. I lost so much wieght last year that I no longer have an ass, and when I look at young gils with there thongs exposed and there asses hanging out, I get just plain jelous. I am an assless wonder!

I'm not going to can pumpkin if I'm not going to live here.

Pumpkin. Now that's a phunny word. How 'bout our poet lariot tackle dat one?

Em--I'll be thinking of you all on Sunday. I think either tree you decide upon will be very fitting.

Off to get me hair cut......

Mornin! (or mmmmblemmm, depending on the type of household you have). So much to comment on/reply to. I just know I'm gonna forget somethin impo'tent.

Em-N-Em phirst......my vote is for the weeping crab!!! Acktully kinda phunny....in that....tis a tree so beautiful, so joyful in flower, has to be laughing with spring, not weepy or crabby, and inspires happiness, not tears or crabbiness. Seems poifect to me!

Thongs! Igggh! I had never heard of them until my middle age (now, THAT seems phunny to me...I coit-nly don't pheel middle-ages.....(wasn't that bephore the renne-sansce?). Any wayz...I did try them....still have a couple pair...they still look brand new because I can't bear them. They make me pheel all too conscious of an area I'd rather not be conscious of, thank you very much.

Porr bluezy Psuezzies! Wish I could help cheer youse all up! Psuessle.....I vote yes on the Psilly Psummit at the expense of someone who apparently would not miss the cash! You could tell her that we are the entertainment portion for the gathering! Does she have a private jet that can make the rounds to pick us all up? We could be getting all wound up together on the way there! :lol:

Glad to hear Max is doing all right. YOu have to be so careful with people medicines given to pets.

Amanda.....man o-man! Sounds like a scare incident! My son loved fruit when he was little....but I had to peel EVERYTHING! The skins would do to him what the peach did to you. He would start out with his little mouth pheeling itchy and strange, then the welts. I thought it was odd that he could eat the insides but not the skins. He had a thing about textures too. Wouldn't eat beans or peas or anything with that "mealy" pheel, or rubbery textures (apple skins). Anyhow, I hope you pheel better by now.

Heyyy Juuuude.....hope you are hangin in there all right....and that you turn that Birch in to her superiors at least, if not in a letter to the editor for the whole community to hear about. She should not be doing business! Of course, you may want to wait until all of your issues are settled (and perhaps after you've moved) to write this :ph34r:

Can't think what else.....oh well, missed opportunities and all of that. Later...

Amanda- icky peach reaction :(

Am cracking up at the proliferatuon of sam's all over the board. Had to put on me moderator voice yesterday and there was Sam, sniffing my hair in me avatar! :lol:

Em--*sniffle*

The crab tree would give him is opportunity to be crabby, something he never got the chance to do while he was making you all laugh :)

I like the crab apple tree too! Either way, hang in there this weekend. We'll be thinking of you :wub: :wub: and how special your dad was.

Psillies, I have a disease that normal people get!!!!!!!! I have strep throat- :wacko: :wacko: I never get real diseases- very strange. Must be my body's rebellion against the lack of antibiotics these few months. When the nurse asked me if I had been on antibiotics recently, I burst out laughing and told her to find one I hadn't been on- she actually did.

This strep throat thing is very strange. I must eat ice cream all day :D :D And take extra naps!

I was afraid that this would happen. All the talk of pole-dancing and thongs - it was only a matter of time before someone got strip throat. But, I'm surprized at the advice to eat ice cream. Shouldn't a stripper eat something a little more "figger friendly"? (Do hope you feel better)

Anyone with a wierd physical thing? I've got one. It's called Aidies Syndrome (not to confused with aids) It's pronounced long adeez, and named for the doc who discovered it. It's manifestations are

1. My right pupil does not dilate.

2. I have no reflexes in my elbows or knees (told you I had no funny-bone).

It's fun with docs, who never believe me and keep pounding away with thier little hammers till I'm black and blue and then finally get it. Or, at parties. And, in dim light, my left pupil is large and the right is very small. I can always tell the exact second someone notices that. Children are

God, I miss Sam Hill Manhead. He is no longer in my life, as is John. It was not an eyeball problem, or a computwer illiteracy problem, but, it was an extreme attempt to gain attention. I thaught if I posted once, no one would listen, but if I posted twice, THE WHOLE WORLD WOUD BE WATCHING! God, I am such a child of the 60's! I didn't make it to Woodstock or the Chicago National Convention, but in my heart, I was there. And , in my heart, I'm here. Now, that's scary!

Suzie- Can you arrange that limo ride? It's only 2000 miles (maybe 3), but I promise not to sh.. in the limo. And, your friend is rich - she can afford to clean up after me! And a bunch of others.

My rock garden is where my parents and sister are "buried". They all chose to give thier bodies to science, so there is no graveyard to say goodbye to. So, for each one, I planted a large rock and an evergreen plant. In good weather, I say goodby everyday- in the winter, not so much.

I know I'm getting mauldlin and depressing, so I'll try to lighten up.

      Currently, there are no tests for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out and we do have testing for celiac disease. There are two primary test modalities for diagnosing celiac disease. One involves checking for antibodies in the blood. For the person with celiac disease, when gluten is ingested, it produces an autoimmune response in the lining of the small bowel which generates specific kinds of antibodies. Some people are IGA deficient and such that the IGA antibody tests done for celiac disease will have skewed results and cannot be trusted. In that case, there are IGG tests that can be ordered though, they aren't quite as specific for celiac disease as the IGA tests. But the possibility of IGA deficiency is why a "total IGA" test should always be ordered along with the TTG-IGA. The other modality is an endoscopy (scoping of the upper GI track) with a biopsy of the small bowel lining. The aforementioned autoimmune response produces inflammation in the small bowel lining which, over time, damages the structure of the lining. The biopsy is sent to a lab and microscopically analyzed for signs of this damage. If the damage is severe enough, it can often be spotted during the scoping itself. The endoscopy/biopsy is used as confirmation when the antibody results are positive, since there is a small chance that elevated antibody test scores can be caused by things other than celiac disease, particularly when the antibody test numbers are not particularly high. If the antibody test numbers are 10x normal or higher, physicians will sometimes declare an official diagnosis of celiac disease without an endoscopy/biopsy, particularly in the U.K. Some practitioners use stool tests to detect celiac disease but this modality is not widely recognized in the medical community as valid. Both celiac testing modalities outlined above require that you have been consuming generous amounts of gluten for weeks/months ahead of time. Many people make the mistake of experimenting with the gluten free diet or even reducing their gluten intake prior to testing. By doing so, they invalidate the testing because antibodies stop being produced, disappear from the blood and the lining of the small bowel begins to heal. So, then they are stuck in no man's land, wondering if they have celiac disease or NCGS. To resume gluten consumption, i.e., to undertake a "gluten challenge" is out of the question because their reaction to gluten is so strong that it would endanger their health. The lining of the small bowel is the place where all of the nutrition in the food we consume is absorbed. This lining is made up of billions of microscopically tiny fingerlike projections that create a tremendous nutrient absorption surface area. The inflammation caused by celiac disease wears down these fingers and greatly reduces the surface area needed for nutrient absorption. Thus, people with celiac disease often develop iron deficiency anemia and a host of other vitamin and mineral deficiencies. It is likely that many more people who have issues with gluten suffer from NCGS than from celiac disease. We actually know much more about the mechanism of celiac disease than we do about NCGS but some experts believe NCGS can transition into celiac disease.
    • SamAlvi
      Thank you for the clarification and for taking the time to explain the terminology so clearly. I really appreciate your insight, especially the distinction between celiac disease and NCGS and how anemia can point more toward celiac. This was very helpful for me.
    • Jsingh
      Hi,  My 7 year daughter has complained of this in the past, which I thought were part of her glutening symptom, but more recently I have come to figure out it's part of her histamine overload symptom. This one symptom was part of her broader profile, which included irritability, extreme hunger, confusion, post-nasal drip. You might want to look up "histamine intolerance". I wish I had known of this at the time of her diagnosis, life would have been much easier.  I hope you are able to figure out. 
    • lizzie42
      My 5yo was diagnosed with celiac last year by being tested after his sister was diagnosed. We are very strict on the gluten-free diet, but unsure what his reactions are as he was diagnosed without many symptoms other than low ferritin.  He had a school party where his teacher made gluten-free gingerbread men. I almost said no because she made it in her kitchen but I thought it would be ok.  Next day and for a few after his behavior is awful. Hitting, rude, disrespectful. Mainly he kept saying his legs were shaking. Is this a gluten exposure symptom that anyone else gets? Also the bad behavior? 
    • trents
      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified Gluten" in any given batch run. It just means there could be.
