I been caught!

Packing to switch hotels. Decided to say hi before closin' the 'puter.

My neighbors daughter works at IHOP here. I went in and asked to sit in her section. She walks up, looks completely mystified and says "....are....you....my......mother's.......neighbor.....?" I started laughing and she yelled OMG!!

It was fun. We hugged and chatted. She's going to school and plans to apply to nursing school when she finishes her pre-reqs. She was living on a different island but couldn't focus on her studies so she came to Waikik. She calls this her 'boot camp'. :o<_<

I knew y'all'd feel sorry for her.

Well, the summer that never was has come to a semi-official end here in Unionville. Today started with bright sunshine which has now turned into complete overcast. The forecast is rain for the next five days starting this evening, so....

We took down and stored the deck furniture for the season, and shut down and covered the air conditioner. This will, of course, mean the forecast is wrong and the next few days will be warm and sunny and deck friendly.

I have a pheeling that somefin momentous is in the air.

Many moons ago, me neighbor and I were taking Smackl (age 3?) to Dairy Queen. The freezer that was up front that held all the cakes and Dilly Bars and Buster Bars and Star Pops was empty because they were defrosting it/getting ready to clean it. Smackl always got a Dilly bar or a Star so of course my neighbor and I immediately go into "Oh No, it looks like they are all out" "I guess there won't be any treats for us today" . . . And Smackl says "Damnit!!" loud enough for the people working at the counter and the customer who's there. Red-faced I couldn't help but laugh and I noted that he got his "usage" perfect. The customer at the counter said "I'm glad that kind of thing happens to other people, too".

When the time comes, we need to have that Hawaiin real-time webcam set up in the delivery room for a really special synchronized Psilly get-together.. . . . ........ :D

:lol::unsure::ph34r:

Lee-sa....how's the baby watch? Anything happen overnight?

Nada

My children learned a colorful new set of words, mostly revolving around the "F" word. I had to have multiple chats with them about appropriate language--sooooo praying ds doesn't drop an f-bomb at school today...... :huh:

According to my mother, my first attempt at profanity as a wee child was....

...ready?.....

G*d-damm!t-sh!t-to-He!!

:lol:

:ph34r:

Jess- I love you but I hate you!

DITTO! <_<:P

I knew y'all'd feel sorry for her.

Pfffttttt!!!!!!

Same here.

Very likely.....I believe I have come quite close, as some establishments don't know the difference between 'air conditioning' and 'REFRIGERATION"!!!!! :angry:

BTW....Here in the States, that would be Murphy's Law.

Lee-sa.....I see you down there--any news?

Nothin, yet, but Briana has decided to start her maternity leave.

Sealed lips don't work as well :ph34r: :ph34r:

Swim was fab. Whole body hurts, them waves is serious.

Moved to the Sheraton, luxurious, and yet designed for work. Got a desk, plugs, internet that works, air conditioner that doesn't drown out the passing trucks with it's rattle-

Only down side is that because I checked in early, they had to give me a room with an ocean view...

Now you can all feel sorry for me :D :D :D

Gotta finish my homework, due in a few hours.

      How Come Gluten Didnt Bother Me In Italy

      By Gigi2025 · Posted

      Hi Christiana, Many thanks for your response.  Interestingly, I too cannot eat wheat in France without feeling effects (much less than in the US, but won't indulge nonetheless).  I also understand children are screened for celiac in Italy prior to starting their education. Wise idea as it seems my grandson has the beginning symptoms (several celiacs in his dad's family), but parents continue to think he's just being difficult.  Argh.  There's a test I took that diagnosed gluten sensitivity in 2014 via Entero Labs, and am planning on having done again.  Truth be told, I'm hoping it's the bromine/additives/preservatives as I miss breads and pastas terribly when home here in the states!  Be well and here's to our guts healing ❤️

      Inconclusive results

      Lol that’s so true! Hope you get clarity, it’s tough when there’s doubt. There’s so much known about celiac disease with all the scientific research that’s been done so far yet practically and clinically there’s also so much unknown, still. Out of curiosity what’s her dairy consumption like? Even compared to early years to now? Has that changed? Calcium is dependent in the mechanism of antigen presenting cells in the gut. High calcium foods with gluten grains can initiate inflammation greater.  This is why breakfast cereals and milk combo long term can be a ticking time bomb for genetically susceptible celiacs (not a scientific statement by any means but my current personal opinion based on reasoning at present). Milk and wheat are the top culprits for food sensitivity. Especially in childhood. There are also patient cases of antibodies normalising in celiac children who had milk protein intolerance/ delayed type allergy. Some asymptomatic. There were a couple of cases of suspected celiacs that turned out to have milk protein intolerance that normalised antibodies on a gluten containing diet. Then there were others that only normalised antibodies once gluten and milk was eliminated. Milk kept the antibodies positive. Celiac disease is complicated to say the least.

      And thank you for your encouragement. I am glad that her body is doing a good job fighting it. I also just want clarity for her moving forwards. She was only 6 for the last round of testing and she's 10 now, so I'm also hoping that makes a difference. It was weird during her last round of testing though, because right before her biopsy, we'd upped her gluten intake by giving her biscuits made from straight up vital wheat gluten, and her labs actually normalized slightly (lower ttg and her ema went negative). Bodies just do weird things sometimes! lol

      The first negative biopsy in 2021 just said "no pathological change" for all the samples, and the second one in 2022 said "Duodenal mucosa with mild reactive change (focal foveolar metaplasia) and preserved villous architecture." So I think Marsh score 0 in both cases, though it's not actually written in the pathology reports. I'm really hoping to get a clear positive result this time, just for her sake.

      Blood results

      By Wends · Posted

      Hopefully the biopsy gives a conclusive and correct diagnosis for your daughter. Im in the UK and have been in the situation a few years ago of trying to rule celiac in or out after inconclusive results. Many symptoms pointing to it including the classic symptoms and weight loss and folate and iron deficiency. You have to play a waiting game. I also had the label of IBS and likely food allergy. Genetic test showed low risk for celiac but not no risk. It sounds like the Gastroenterologist is on it and hopefully will diagnose what it is correctly. Food hypersensitivity (allergy) can also cause similar symptoms and inflammation as well as mimicking IBS. Milk / dairy and wheat (cereal grains) being the biggest culprits. The “oesophagitis” and “gastritis” you mentioned can be caused by another gastrointestinal disorder called “eosinophilic gastrointestinal disorders”. These are named depending on which part of the gastrointestinal tract is affected. For example eosinophilic oesophagitis, eosinophilic gastritis, eosinophilic gastroenteritis, and more rare eosinophilic colitis. They are antigen (allergen) driven. When the blood test measuring anti-ttg antibodies is positive in absence of a positive ema test - which is more specific to celiac, this can also suggest food hypersensitivity (allergy). Usually delayed type allergy similar to celiac but not autoimmune if that makes sense. In this case the ttg antibodies are transient. Which happens. I’ve first hand experience. For info, evidence of villous atrophy too can be caused by food hypersensitivity. Not just by celiac disease. In Egid disorders the six food elimination diet, under a dietitian and gastroenterologist care, is the dietary protocol to figure out the culprit or culprits. Sometimes only two food elimination diet is used at first. The number one culprit is milk protein / dairy. Followed by wheat, eggs, soy, fish and seafood, and nuts. Most are only reactive to one food group or two. Most are only reactive to milk. Hope this is a helpful reply.
