OMG... . . . . ....and are strewn along the highway... ...... . ...under corpses and shards of metal debris.... ...

:lol: Yes, and I must say that was the least serious of the many... . ...changes...... . that have happened with my cars after MIL has brought them home over the years. Missing side mirrors (BOTH sides), missing windshield wipers (snapped right off........how does this happen?), crushed license plates, bits of Jack's bicycle imbedded in the tires, large splatters of blood along the front bumper... . . .....

Truly terrifying.

I actually have not yet been out into the garage since she got home. :unsure:

OMG, is she crazy???? Why would she even borrow the car after all that???!!!

The infinitely more perplexing question: Why would I even LEND her the car after all that?

Well, my vehicle appears just fine. Mirrors and wipers are there, tires debris-free and inflated... . . ...

Now, I dinna check under the car......fer mangled limbs or bits of guardrail... . .... :unsure:

I'm thinking that Em is having a good, stiff drink before taking a look out in the garage.....

Anywho.....I talked to the birthday goil, Judith a little while ago. I told her about all of the good wishes here and on da book--she was very touched and wanted me to thank all o'youse. She's still not able to be on-line much, but hopes to be again in the near future.

They are out looking at a house as we speak--I told her wouldn't it be nice if this was "the one" --it would be a birthday/Christmas present all rolled into one! :D

In your town, do the fire trucks drive around at night with the lights flashing, playing Christmas carols over the loud speakers?

Mushroom is in New Zealand. She'll beat you there by a good margin. ;)<it is tomorrow afternoon there already>

We have one more day of business, but today set a record. Our two busiest days in sales volume are the last Saturday before Christmas, and the 23rd of December. In 2000, they fell on the same day and we set a record dollar volume. Today, we exceeded that, on top of the large volume on Saturday. W00t!

We are hosting Christmas for my family on Friday. It was supposed to be Rob's turn, but some obstacles arose, so we are pinch hitting. A large turkey is in the fridge; it will be stuffed, and gluten-free dinner for eight will be served. :mellow:

When Em's MIL visits her, and borrows her car, I am glad that I am 275 miles away. ;)

Hope you and Jacquie have a wonderful Christmas--have phun hosting the phamily!

Yup, you got that right Peter. Either 12 or 11 hours ahead (can't remember which daylight savings does to us ;) )

Just making the Gluten Free Goddess chocolate cake for dessert, having gone to the berry farm and purchased fresh raspberries. There is cognac cream in the fridge :) We shall be having scallops (scollops) and shrimp(s) as they say here, for starters, then barbecued beef with fresh corn on the cob 'mongst other things, followed by a nice long walk on the beach. Then return for chocolate cake and to watch movies we have been waiting to see. We kept all the family safely locked away in the North Island this year ;) Weatherman is promising 80 degrees and no nasty sea "breezes"; sure hope he's right. So a nice relaxing day of feasting.

Will be thinking of you all on Boxing Day, and just want to wish all a very Merry Xmas, Good health and Good Luck for the New year. (And hope Emmel survives MIL's visit :lol: )

      Thanks for the reply.

      What you’re describing is actually very common, and unfortunately the timing of the biopsy likely explains the confusion. Yes, it is absolutely possible for the small intestine to heal enough in three months on a strict gluten-free diet to produce a normal or near-normal biopsy, especially when damage was mild to begin with. In contrast, celiac antibodies can stay elevated for many months or even years after gluten removal, so persistently high antibody levels alongside the celiac genes and clear nutrient deficiencies strongly point to celiac disease, even if you don’t feel symptoms. Many people with celiac are asymptomatic but still develop iron and vitamin deficiencies and silent intestinal damage. The lack of immediate symptoms makes it harder emotionally, but it doesn’t mean gluten isn’t harming you. Most specialists would consider this a case of celiac disease with a false-negative biopsy due to early healing rather than “something else,” and staying consistently gluten-free is what protects you long-term—even when your body doesn’t protest right away.
    • Scott Adams
      Yes, I meant if you had celiac disease but went gluten-free before screening, your results would end up false-negative. As @trents mentioned, this can also happen when a total IGA test isn't done.

      I found at Disney springs and Disney they have specialist that when told about dietary restrictions they come and talk to you ,explain cross contamination measures tsken and work with you on choices. Its the one place I dont worry once I've explained I have celiac disease.  Thier gluten free options are awesome.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.
