When's the interview?

Monday afternoon.

The first interview was by phone, so maybe that doesn't count as a first interview? :blink: :blink:

BRAIN SCIENCE?? Dear gawd, this institute likely has an entire file on Psillyville, right from the earliest pages.... .. . . .."subjects for study and debate". . . .....

:lol:

Best of luck, Jyess.....looks like a sophisticated, cutting -edge place. YOU SHOULD BE THERE!

And Paul Allen looks like such a calm, gentle man . .. . .a lovely, brainy guy for whom to work. . . . . . ..

I need another shower <_<

How do people LIVE here????? HIH did they live here before air conditioning???? :blink:

Swear to gawd--it's like an oven out there :o Literally.

Um. . . . . . . ...... . .all right, let's leave the big Psillyville Psummit meeting location open for further debate, shall we? :unsure:

:rolleyes:

Part of the reason I grieved so hard when he died was that I didn't want to give up the 'new' & improved Daddy I had. So I find myself (uncharitably) jealous of those of you who've been able to live your whole lives with such special parents.

And about three months before he did go, he looked at me one day, tears in his eyes, adn said: "I finally found my daughter." *gulp* and I replied: "I finally found my daddy." We had dropped our lifelong weapons of defense, and in his prolonged illness, he softened so.

Don't think it's ever gonna happen.....just wanted to commiserate with you two. I really understand what you're saying and I'm so sorry.

Again, I am poignantly reminded (and it is vital, for me, that this happens regularly), of how very lucky I am. Every night now I count my blessings. :)

Geoss! very exciting!!!!!!!!!

"what should exist?" I'll tell you what in hell should exist, and I think about it every morning of my life whilst in shower. <_<

I'd like a leg-shaving razor that is about three inches wide. I mean, WHY IN HELL hasn't anybody invented this???? I'm to shave how many square inches of skin with a thing invented to shave a man's FACE??? :angry:

Really. We need a very wide razor. Three inches. Maybe four. Imagine how few swipes one would have to take. Please speak to that smart Paul Allen about this during yer interview, will you J? :lol: *snort*

(and no, this is not my brilliant business plan - that one's called Hire a Hag :lol: )

Monday afternoon.

totally counts now, and you passed. :)

:lol: am in full agreement. WE couldn't go anywhere near TexAss until late fall, I'm thinking, or dead of winter.

Count yer blessings, Em. Your dad is amazing. :)

PadTea - I'd forgotten about your mum. I soooooooo hope you can find your peace with her.....though she sounds difficult, and SOOOOO completely unlike you....

am boycotting the HS graduation tonight (erased the ranting about it from earlier post). They actually didn't even get me a ticket, we are pretty sure, so I don't have to go, WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :rolleyes:

This might sound a tad macabre, but I'm actually a bit jealous of you guys.

See, my dad was NOT an awesome guy. Not most of my life. He was angry, rather mean and abusive, and very difficult to live/work with. During the year he was sick, a great deal of that changed, and I got to have a year with my dad as my Daddy, as loving and kind and wonderful as I knew he always could be. I know exactly how evil his mother was (a woman with whom I will NOT associate), and how extroardinarily hard he worked to improve himself enough just to be the mean bastard I grew up with.

Part of the reason I grieved so hard when he died was that I didn't want to give up the 'new' & improved Daddy I had. So I find myself (uncharitably) jealous of those of you who've been able to live your whole lives with such special parents. I can only imagine how hard it must be to contemplate losing someone who's so deeply imbedded in everything in your life, who's so well loved. I sincerely hope he gets better.

And hey, so when did I become the traveling chef?!?!?! Who's gonna shell out for all that equipment, huh? Don't I get a vote in this?!?!?

I am really, truly sorry to hear this. I, too, can relate to all of the issues with parents you have all mentioned (I had many quotes, but messed up and lost them).

Bunnie, a big <<hug>>. I know you are/were a good daughter, because you are a good person.

Peter, big <<hug>> for you guys, too. It is so hard to watch a loved one's health fail. I cannot imagine what it would be like to with alzheimer's, or the pain of no longer being a part of that loved ones reality. It's as though a stranger has moved in to their body--you recognise the face, voice, but the person staring out at you is not the same.

Pat, big <<hug>> for you, too. I really identify most with what you said about your relationship with your mom. I soooooo get it :(

For the life of me I cannot fathom why otherwise intelligent people would put pineapple on a pizza, along with ham, and actually eat the thing.

Peter, I am all for bacon, black olives, etc,

but pineapple, ham, mushroom (and onion) is too DIE FOR. A truly mouthgasmic food experience.

Afternoon!!!!!!

Pineapple, ham and mushroom on me pizza please!!!!!!!!

See? What she said :)

Nikki, everyone--I was sent a virus through my facebook friends PM account this morning, along with every other one of her friends. If you recieve an Inbox message that is titled something like "Pprivate Pplease. Vvideo of yyou Ppublished" do NOT open it. Repeat--DO NOT OPEN IT!!!!!!

Okeydokey....I know I live in Texas...and it's the south....and it's hot.....BUT pseriously Sillies--this is the hottest day I've ever felt in me life! I ran to the store (drove, really) ... planned to get there and back asap. Well, I got back here, and first couldn't get into the parking garage, and then my keypad wouldn't work on the building door.

I had to park the car, traipse around the freakin building to the front door, groceries in hand, praying it would open....and luckily one of the property managers was there showing an apartment er sumphin.

I need another shower

How do people LIVE here????? HIH did they live here before air conditioning????

I feel better now

Swear to gawd--it's like an oven out there Literally.

I am sso nnot jjealous.

i have a second interview

Woo-hoo! That is excellent news :D

Best of kluck to you ;)

Yes, use us as references. In fact, e-mail some anecdotes and a facebook link. Invite him to join yer mafia :lol:

No seriously, I wish you the best. I sincerely hope you get it, and that it is what you've been looking for :D

I think what I really want is a lobotomy.......

Yes, that ASS HAT from my former life. The most ruinous man alive. The man I will never forgive and loathe the thought of. HE pops up as a "potential friend." HOW IN HELL DID THIS HAPPEN?????? his WIFE pops up also, all the time. Ass Hat and I have NO mutual friends.

Suze, you crazee wacko sil. No more wuvvin' from yer baby skittle? Job boring you to tears? As if that weren't bad enough....

former love semi-surfacing on the book, like some shadow stalker figure?

You two must have a mutual connection somewhere. Facebook automatically generates those potential friend sugesstions based on info you enter, like place of work, where you live or go to school.

Julie, as Jess said, relationships are often complex. You helped open a window into some of ours.

Patti, you really, really did say "really" as many times as I just did. B)

The parent/child relationship is the epitome of complex. We love each other so much it hurts. I really don't wan't to add my own sad tale--I hate telling people about it all (although if my folks had come stay with me for the four months like they wanted to, I would have been e-mailing you'se like every ten minutes.) But, I can honestly say I am a good mother, and that is what matters most to me.

ME first this mornin!!!!

I stayed home from work today, not something I normally do. Got my period this morning, and without being too graphic, I'll just say it occasionally has an unfortunate effect on my bowels. I wasn't in the mood for hobbling back and forth to the bathroom all morning. I wish Imodium would work on this particular issue.....

Jestgar Rising Star

Bunnie wins!!

I used to have that same effect with my period. <_<

Pointless. The whole bloody mess is pointless.

Doesn't happen every time, just 2 or 3 times a year, but when those days fall on workdays I's in trubbles.....

      I think, after reading this, that you areso traumatized by not being able yo understand what your medical advisors have been  what medical conditions are that you would like to find a group of people who also feel traumatized who would agree with you and also support you. You are on a crusade much as the way the US Cabinet  official, the Health Director of our nation is in trying to change what he considers outdated and incorrect health advisories. He does not have the education, background or experience to be in the position he occupies and is not making beneficial decisions. That man suffered a terrible trauma early in his life when his father was assonated. We see now how he developed and worked himself into a powerful position.  Unless you are willing to take some advice or  are willing to use a few of the known methods of starting on a path to better health then not many of us on this Celiac Forum will be able to join you in a continuing series of complaints about medical advisors.    I am almost 90 years old. I am strictly gluten free. I use 2 herbs to help me stay as clear minded as possible. You are not wrong in complaining about medical practitioners. You might be more effective with a clearer mind, less anger and a more comfortable life if you would just try some of the suggestions offered by our fellow celiac volunteers.

      Thus has got to STOP , medical bit believing us! I literally went through 31 years thinking it was just a food allergy as its downplayed by medical if THEY weren't the ones who diagnosed us! Im positive for HLA-DQ2 which is first celiac patient per Iran and Turkey. Here in the States especially in Cali its why do you feel that way? Why do you think your celiac? Your not eating gluten so its something else.Medical caused me depression. I thought I was safe with my former pcp for 25 years considering i thought everything I went through and going through will be available when I get fired again for health. Health not write-ups my health always come back when you're better.Im not and being tossed away at no fault to my own other than shitty genes.I was denied disability because person said he didn't know how to classify me! I said Im celiac, i have ibs, hernia, sciatica, high blood pressure, in constant pain have skin and eye issues and menopause intensified everything. With that my celiac nightmare began to reprove my disregarded disease to a bunch of clowns who think they are my careteam when they said I didn't have...I feel Im still breathing so I can fight this so no body else has to deal with this nightmare. Starting over with " new care team" and waisting more time on why I think I am when diagnosed in 1994 before food eliminated from my diet. P.s everything i went through I did write to medical board, so pretty sure I will continue to have a hard time.

      @Scatterbrain, Thiamine Vitamin B1 and amino acid Taurine work together.  Our bodies can make Taurine from meats consumed.  Our bodies cannot make Thiamine and must consume thiamine from food.  Meat is the best source of B vitamins like Thiamine.   Vegetarians may not make sufficient taurine since they don't eat meat sources of taurine.  Seaweed is the best vegetarian source of taurine. Vegetarians may not consume sufficient Thiamine since few veggies are good sources.  Whole grains, legumes, and nuts and seeds contain thiamine.  Many of these sources can be hard to digest and absorb for people with Celiac disease.   You may find taking the forms of thiamine called Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) and a B Complex will give the benefits you're looking for better than taurine alone.

      @Jmartes71, I went to Doterra's site and had a look around.  The Doterra TerraZyme supplement really jumped out at me.  Since we, as Celiacs, often have digestive problems, I looked at the ingredients.  The majority of the enzymes in this supplement are made using black mold, Aspergillus!  Other enzymes are made by yeast Saccharomyces!  Considering the fact that Celiac often have permeable intestines (leaky gut syndrome), I would be very hesitant to take a product like this.  Although there may not be live black mold or yeast in the product, the enzymes may still cause an immune system response which would definitely cause inflammation throughout the body.   Skin, eyes, and intestines are all made from the same basic type of cells.  Your skin on the outside and eyes can reflect how irritated the intestines are on the inside.  Our skin, eyes, and intestines all need the same vitamins and nutrients to be healthy:  Vitamin A, Niacin B3 and Tryptophan, Riboflavin B2, Biotin B7, Vitamin C, and Omega Threes.  Remember that the eight B vitamins work together.  Just taking high doses of just one, vitamin like B12, can cause a deficiency in the others.  Taking high doses of B12 can mask a Folate B9 deficiency.  If you take B12, please take a B Complex, too.  Thiamine B1 can be taken in high doses safely without toxicity.  Thiamine is needed by itself to produce energy so every cell in the body can function, but Thiamine also works with the other B vitamins to make life sustaining enzymes and digestive enzymes.  Deficiencies in either Niacin, Vitamin C, or Thiamine can cause digestive problems resulting in Pellagra, Scurvy, and Gastrointestinal Beriberi.   If you change your diet, you will change your intestinal microbiome.  Following the Autoimmune Protocol Diet, a Paleo diet, will starve out SIBO bacteria.  Thiamine keeps bacteria in check so they don't get out of control as in SIBO.  Thiamine also keeps MOLDS and Yeasts from overgrowth.   Menopause symptoms and menstrual irregularities are symptomatic of low Vitamin D.   Doctors are not as knowledgeable about malnutrition as we need them to be.  A nutritionist or dietician would be more helpful.   Take control of your diet and nutrition.  Quit looking for a pill that's going to make you feel better overnight.  The Celiac journey is a marathon, not a sprint.   "Let food be your medicine, and let medicine be your food."

      The Lindt (Lindor) dairy-free oat milk truffles are definitely gluten-free, and (last time I checked) so are the white chocolate truffles and the mint chocolate truffles.
