There is a bit of sadness in the house. Due to escalating problems, we had to send Bagheera back on Friday morning. The difficult and heartbreaking decision came on Thursday. He is such a sweet and loving little guy who gets along wonderfully with humans. Unfortunately, it seems that he needs to be in a one-cat household. :(:(

This brings me to other very sad news that I must mention to you, my dear friends. Our beautiful, dear rescued standard poodle, Charlie, is no longer with us. Such a sad tale, and I am still grieving.

:( My gosh, I'm so sorry to hear this :( My phriends, we can do the best we can wif the very best of intentions, but sometimes for whatever reason it just can't work out. Heartbreaking. Em and PeOter, (((warm hugs))) to you both along wif Jacquie and Em's family. I'm really sorry :(

Oh Emmy, I'm so sorry. I guess your dad needed a dog and figured one trained by you would be the best kind.

Yes! Jyesss, an absolutely perfect thing to think. :) :) I must tell the kids this.

Sorry for this Peter. :( A one-cat cat in a multi household is an unhappy mix for everyone. You'll find the perfect kitty and Bagheera will find a home where he can be the most spoiledest cat around.

Peter, Jacquie, Em - so sorry for your losses. You all did your bestest to beat the odds and make loving homes for stranded/abused pets, but sometimes it doesn't work no matter what you do. Those who mistreat animals are the lowest forms of life and deserve the same treatment themselves. As for Bugheera, I'm with the others - he will find a one-pet household and flourish, I am sure. Such a cutie :wub:

Are you doing the floor and the backsplash? You will do really well. The hardest part is getting the base, especially a floor, smooth and flat. The tile part is easy, especially with a mathematical mind. Put up pics for us!

Hope everyone had a safe and happy 4th!! Fireworks went on here till about 2am. Earplugs only work so well.... Today I have a sugar hangover...Those cookies I said I shouldn't make, well I ate about 1/2 a batch of those and a red/white/blue cherry tart that was TDF!!!!! pics of both on the blog. I'm eating nothing but egg whites and veggies today!

Well guys, believe it or not, my admitting physician was Dr. John Hung :lol: , and I think he must have changed his name to compensate for the tiny thumbs, like little matchsticks they were :rolleyes:.

Heee!! We have a Dr. McGivor and a Dr. Klotz. People are afraid to have McGivor, but I figure he can fix anything, even if it's with a paperclip and some rope :P Dr. Klotz delivered Max. I still get a kick out of his name :rolleyes:

POeter, I am so sorry to hear this. A beautiful little kitten like Bagheera will find a new home quickly, for sure.

This brings me to other very sad news that I must mention to you, my dear friends.

Well, after SO much work, so much obedience training, desensitization and counter-conditioning, he still had a long way to go. Last week he suddenly bit Jack, and we knew that was it.... ..the final straw.

He was such a big, beautiful, loving animal. . . ..but some horrid, poor excuse for a human being mistreated him for the first five years of his life, and forever scarred him.

So sorry Peetah and Em for your losses. They were lucky to have you, even if only for a short time :wub:

Well, psillies.....ya better sit down.

I'm just gonna come right out and say it.......

Yesterday, Brian and I were in a motorcycle accident. We're ok. I have a broken arm. We both have road rash and bruises. Brian's ribs are bruised. My arm is strapped to my body for 6 weeks.

Some idiot pulled out of a parking lot, intending to get into the center turn lane. Trouble was....another car was already there. So she stopped in our lane.

Good news is......I'M STILL GOING TO CHICAGO!!!!!!!! :D

I got a friend to go with me. ;)

See you soon, Em! :wub:

YAAAAAYYY! Leeeesargh's banged up and broken, but she's still comin' to Chicago!!!! :D :D

But BOOOOOOO on that accident -- Leeeese, we don't want you riding motorcycles anymore... . . . .. :unsure:

It is so fantastic that you are still coming. Cannot wait for this - -it will be the event of the summer for me. Like when Patteigh and Mark met Will and I in Philly, our hotel again has free fancy cocktails and hors d'ouevres from 5 to 7. I say we just sit in the comfy loungers and get pissed. Leeese, you'll forget all about yer arm strapped to yer side.. . .

Um, speaking of which - - you're not the one driving, are you?? :unsure:

Dang it Lisa! Not sure if you should run out and buy lottery tickets, or stay away from earthquake zones.

I hope you and your friend are taking a car to Chicago.

I'm sure I'll be doing my share of the driving. So getting pissed may not be a good idea :P I'm hoping to get there early enough to do something about town. Don't forget....I'll have a car to get us around :)

      Son's legs shaking

      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...

      Son's legs shaking

      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...

      Bob red mill gluten free oats

      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...

      Disaccharide deficient, confusing biopsy results, no blood test

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you...

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.

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?

The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.
