The little girl is still hiding, although she was out playing with her brother last night. Bo is attempting to ignore them - the little boy disagrees with that plan....

So far I'm just calling them the Tater Tots. :D

Gah! I've missed so much! Missed Em's birthday.....and a couple others me thinks. Kitties.....MJ....what else? Oh.....and dear Lucy :(

Soooo glad to see Patteigh around again! How's the family, Padts?

Been having lots of neck problems lately. Had a CT scan and found 2 bulging disks and one herniated disk. <_<

*note to self*...must learn to type without looking at the keys :rolleyes:

....and osteopenia is getting worse.

But.....I can still dance!!! And I've been kicking butt (my own) in Zumba!

Got my hair trimmed....keeping it long,but loosing the curls.....got bangs (cheaper than botox)....AND got it colored....for the first time ever! A deep, sultry brown. B)

Going back to T.E.X.A.S. next week. hubby has to give his deposition. Can't talk about him or the a.c.c.i.d.e.n.t on line. Enemy lawyers have been googling :ph34r: They found a blog of my son's from a while back talking about how well hubby has been doing and that he's dancing again. Don't think it'll do much damage though. Besides......doesn't look like our case has much hope anyway, since we have to prove that the c.i.t.y knew, or had time to know, that the s.t.o.p s.i.g.n was missing. Looks like it will go to t.r.i.a.l.

We'll get to visit my son and DIL while we're there. :D Haven't been to T.e.x.a.s since that spring 2 years ago.

P.S. I'm opening the door in my old pumpkin costume from when I taught first grade. My favorite is my purple flapper but it's inappropriate. Hope we get trick or treaters. We're in a new development and last year only got 15 (7 from our next door neighbor - they like procreating rolleyes.gifrolleyes.gif

We had a total of eleven last night, which is about average. Hub bought licorice all sorts (do you have those, EM?) and there are a bunch left. He thought we could eat the leftovers and his face well when I told him about the gluten. But I think some of the remainder is disappearing :ph34r: -- sometimes he is willlfully ignorant and misbehaving. :rolleyes:

Hi Leese!

Been answering the door steadily for the last 2 1/2 hours. Lots of nice little kids--one family, every kid said "Happy Halloween and welcome to the neighborhood". B)

Wish I could send you some of mine. I have a big bag of assorted chocolates and then three other bags (luckily I have the receipt for two of them).

Well I had a total of 12 including the 7 from next door. My sweet little girl that I tutor came from about a half an hour today. I didn't recognize her until she said "thanks Miss Lois."

Today she brought me a Frankie Stein doll (she knows I have a doll collection and she had brought hers to show me last week and I told her I loved it. It was really sweet of her. She's picking up her reading steadily and LOVES homework and coming to my house.

I've been feeling ill all day and only ate breakfast but that decided to come up a little while ago (yuck). I'm supposed to see my oncologist tomorrow but I want to call and make sure she still wants me to come. Patients get Chemo there and are very susceptible.

OK, off to bed. I'm thankful I managed to keep my costume and wig clean when I got sick.

I hope you all had a happy halloween!

Love,

Loey

This is the first year in a while that we had any t or t'ers. Last year, none at the apartment, the year before that we actually moved on Halloween weekend, and year before that we lived out in the country and got no kids at all.

Tonight was kinda nice.

I just got a new order delivered of their flax and sunflower seeds, and it turns out that they are no longer GFCO-certified. Instead, it just has a generic "Gluten Free" symbol on the package. I reached out to them to ask what protocols/standards/testing they have in place. The person that wrote back said that they are now certifying their gluten free status in-house, but that she couldn't answer my questions related to standards because the person with that info was on vacation. Not very impressed, especially since it still says on their website that they are GFCO-certified. Buyer beware!

But one thing I would like to say to you, no matter where you live, is you mention that your daughter is anxious.  I was always a bit of a nervous, anxious child but before my diagnosis in mid-life my anxiety levels were through the roof.   My anxiety got steadily better when I followed the gluten-free diet and vitamin and mineral deficiencies were addressed.  Anxiety is very common at diagnosis, you may well find that her anxiety will improve once your daughter follows a strict gluten-free diet.

      Welcome to the celic.com community @Dizzyma! I'm assuming you are in the U.K. since you speak of your daughter's celiac disease blood tests as "her bloods".  Has her physician officially diagnosed her has having celiac disease on the results of her blood tests alone? Normally, if the ttg-iga blood test results are positive, a follow-up endoscopy with biopsy of the small bowel lining to check for damage would be ordered to confirm the results of "the bloods". However if the ttg-iga test score is 10x normal or greater, some physicians, particularly in the U.K., will dispense with the endoscopy/biopsy. If there is to be an endoscopy/biopsy, your daughter should not yet begin the gluten free diet as doing so would allow healing of the small bowel lining to commence which may result in a biopsy finding having results that conflict with the blood work. Do you know if an endoscopy/biopsy is planned? Celiac disease can have onset at any stage of life, from infancy to old age. It has a genetic base but the genes remain dormant until and unless triggered by some stress event. The stress event can be many things but it is often a viral infection. About 40% of the general population have the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% actually develop celiac disease. So, for most, the genes remain dormant.  Celiac disease is by nature an autoimmune disorder. That is to say, gluten ingestion triggers an immune response that causes the body to attack its own tissues. In this case, the attack happens in he lining of the small bowel, at least classically, though we now know there are other body systems that can sometimes be affected. So, for a person with celiac disease, when they ingest gluten, the body sends attacking cells to battle the gluten which causes inflammation as the gluten is being absorbed into the cells that make up the lining of the small bowel. This causes damage to the cells and over time, wears them down. This lining is composed of billions of tiny finger-like projections and which creates a tremendous surface area for absorbing nutrients from the food we eat. This area of the intestinal track is where all of our nutrition is absorbed. As these finger-like projections get worn down by the constant inflammation from continued gluten consumption before diagnosis (or after diagnosis in the case of those who are noncompliant) the efficiency of nutrient absorption from what we eat can be drastically reduced. This is why iron deficiency anemia and other nutrient deficiency related medical problems are so common in the celiac population. So, to answer your question about the wisdom of allowing your daughter to consume gluten on a limited basis to retain some tolerance to it, that would not be a sound approach because it would prevent healing of the lining of her small bowel. It would keep the fires of inflammation smoldering. The only wise course is strict adherence to a gluten free diet, once all tests to confirm celiac disease are complete.

      Hi all, I have so many questions and feel like google is giving me very different information. Hoping I may get some more definite answers here. ok, my daughter has been diagnosed as a coeliac as her bloods show anti TTG antibodies are over 128. We have started her  on a full gluten free diet. my concerns are that she wasn’t actually physically sick on her regular diet, she had tummy issues and skin sores. My fear is that she will build up a complete intolerance to gluten and become physically sick if she has gluten. Is there anything to be said for keeping a small bit of gluten in the diet to stop her from developing a total intolerance?  also, she would be an anxious type of person, is it possible that stress is the reason she has become coeliac? I read that diagnosis later in childhood could be following a sickness or stress. How can she have been fine for the first 10 years and then become coeliac? sorry, I’m just very confused and really want to do right by her. I know a coeliac and she has a terrible time after she gets gluttened so just want to make sure going down a total gluten free road is the right choice. thank you for any help or advise xx
