my mom's favoUrite kitty - George - - well, George has quite a sex drive. :huh: He is over six months old, got only half-neutered (one testicle had not descended - sorry folks, it's just biology :lol: ).....so he's still insane with passion for, er, many things :huh: (blankets, the remote control, my mom's arm, the two other cats)....SO - - today we will cross paths as mommy picks up George from his testicle retrieval operation (a smash success, says the vet, adn he even saved it in a jar, so *I* get to see it! :rolleyes: )

OH MY GAWD!!

I had a dog exactly the same!

Humped EVERYTHING - but only had one ball - had to be castrated and have the other retrieved :blink:

That dog was the butt of many,many jokes I can tell you :lol:

:lol::ph34r: I shouldn't laugh but she is just quite an odd old lady dog sometimes :lol:

What is it they say about pets becoming like their owners??.......

Love + hugs for Annie tomorrow :wub::wub:

Susie...give us an update as soon as possible. My eyes well up whenever dog crises happen. I've prayed to St. Roch (there is a saint for dogs? This makes me very happy!)

I must quote Will Rogers:

"If there are no dogs in Heaven, then when I die I wish to go where they've gone".

Hear, hear!

All right...back to silliness!

Oh sillies! :huh:

I am sorry to have injected such seriousness and sadness into the thread...

Please, carry on, I will check in tomorrow and NEED some laughs!!! Surgery in a.m.....then I"ll be home all day typing away.

THANK YOU so much for your kind words, thoughts, and prayers.......

:wub:

We'll be thinking of you and Annie :)

Me too Susie, hope she is ok...

And I must say Oh... mah... gah..... I've got the stinking flu and I want to crawl in a hole and preferably not come out for a week. This is soooo not what I need right now. Not that there's any time where I might say, Hey! This is a wonderful time to get the flu, let's do it!

Anyhoo, ugh my body hurts.

Lots of prayers to St. Roch: the patron saint of dogs and those who love them.

St. Roch, huh . . . If I would have had to guess, I would have thought maybe it was St. Bernard. :)

Quotes from my kids:

Son: "Mom, when I grow up, do I HAVE to leave? I don't think I do".

Me: "Yes, you do! Absolutely!"

Daughter: "Mom, how do you spell OK?"

Sarah - hope you're feeling better soon!!

My son still comes out with some good ones, but since he's now nine they don't happen as often. In his classroom not long ago, the teacher asked any kids that had to go to the bathroom to raise two fingers. Jack immediately piped up, "how will that help?"

Oh Emily, your Gus is a handsome boy . . . and it looks like he knows it!

Here's another one from my son . . . a couple of years ago but a classic:

My son trying to explain Easter to his sister: "Jesus rose from the dead, that kind of makes him a Zombie."

Sarah - yuck! Feel better soon! :)

Excellent song. Amanda - you must wear a MASK every day and NOT get sick!! I am believing that you won't. :)

OMG you guys - - I had a dream last night, it was Patti's house. Busloads came to tour the house - it was HUGE - like six stories - and we looked up at it, looming overhead from the sidewalk, there were all kinds of crazy gargoyles and those castle turrets - really quite spectacular, accents of black and copper and marble......

So.....dozens of us traipsed through the house - got to this fabulous kitchen room (w/ black and white tiled floor) and there was this shiny silver door on top of a counter top. Patti, the loveliest hostess, opened this magical door for us, and what looked like dry ice wafted out gently...and there was a sunken in countertop refrigerator....inside....OMG - - endless rows of the most magical, gluten-free treats - - eclairs, tons and tons of eclairs, cream puffs, all manner of individually-sized cream-filled cakes.....I was eating them madly - - everyone else continued to tour the house, come and go, but I stayed and ate things... :huh: Patti graciously refilled it and I ate some more.....told everyone "come look at this thing, you guys!!!!"

:lol: Gee, do you think I miss my deserts much???

:lol: I know - I have pretty crazy (and very detailed) dreams......forgot to mention that the kitchen looked like an old fashioned ice cream parlour - but that was just the "snacking kitchen" - not the real one :lol:

RICHARD - - post something again so we can see the Super Weasel!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:P

TriticusToxicum Explorer
but even more worrisome, is one of the tumours "felt funny" to the vet. What is with my dogs and tumours?

There is a perfectly logical explanation for this. Annie has obviously gotten ahold of your mojo. :o Is this "tumor" located anywhere near her "funny bone"? My guess is yes it is. The vet is correct when he says it feels "funny". By gosh it is funny!

Just make sure he doesn't toss it, or worse yet, send it ou to be resectioned or something :o (not good for mojo :blink: ).

I have a good feeling that you and Super Weasel will come throught this with "flying" coloUrs. ;)

The peanut blossoms are on the way, but I fear the fires may melt the Kisses or the mailman...but they are better melty(Kisses, not mailman :huh: )

Good luck we're pulling for you!

Allo is SO beautiful!! :)

RICHARD - - my mojo - is it....could it be???? Good Lord, I"ll bring it home in a jar and wear it in an amulet 'round my neck....

and how do you know my mailman's kisses aren't melty???? ;)

I'm still got a bit of Bowel Growl, but i slept better last night (wifey too). I'll be close to "normal" tomorrow (normal is not an adjective normally associated with this loon). I don't ever hope to be normal..."regular" is all i can hope for :P

      My reaction to a gluten bolus exposure is similar to yours, with 2-3 hours of severe abdominal cramps and intractable emesis followed by several hours of diarrhea. I don't necessarily equate that one large exposure to gluten with significant intestinal lining damage, however. I think it's just a violent reaction to a what the body perceives to be a somewhat toxic substance that I am no longer tolerant of because I have quit exposing myself to it regularly. It's just the body purging itself of it rather than an expression of significant damage. Before diagnosis, when I was consuming gluten daily, I had little to no GI distress. I was, for the most part, a "silent celiac". The damage to my small bowel lining didn't happen all at once but was slow and insidious, accumulating over a period of years. The last time I got a big shot of gluten was about three years ago when I got my wife's wheat biscuits mixed up with my gluten-free ones. There was this acute reaction after about two hours of ingestion as I described above. I felt washed out for a few days and fully recovered within a week or so.  Now, I'm a 74-year-old male. So, I'm not worried about being pregnant. And I don't want to contradict your physicians advice. But I just don't think you have done significant damage to your small bowel lining by one episode of significant gluten ingestion. I just don't think it works that way.

      Wondering about some thoughts on how long to wait to try to get pregnant after a gluten exposure?  I have been diagnosed for 10 years and have followed the diet strictly. I have been cross contaminated before, but have never had a full on gluten exposure. I went to a restaurant recently, and the waiter messed up and gave me regular bread and told me it was gluten free. 2 hours later I was throwing up for the whole evening. I have never had that kind of reaction before as I have never had such a big exposure. My husband and I were planning to start trying to get pregnant this month. My dr did blood work to check for electrolytes and white blood cells, but did not do a full nutritional panel. Most of my GI symptoms have resolved in the past 2 weeks, but I am definitely still dealing with brain fog, fatigue and headaches. My dr has recommended I wait 3 months before I start to try to get pregnant.   I have read else where about how long it can take for the intestine to fully heal, and the impacts gluten exposure can have on pregnancy. I guess I am really wondering if anyone has had a similar experience? How long does it take to heal after 1 exposure like that, after following the diet so well for 10 years? Is 3 months an okay amount of time to wait? Is there anything I can do in the meantime to reduce my symptoms?

      I’ve used tinctures and made my own edibles with gluten-free ingredients to stay safe. Dispensary staff don’t always know about gluten, so I double-check labels or just make my own.

      It's great to hear that there are some good doctors out there, and this is an example of why having a formal diagnosis can definitely be helpful.

      Update: I have a wonderful new gastroenterologist. She wants to be sure there’s nothing more serious, like refractory celiac, going on. She ordered various tests including some micronutrient tests that no one has ever ordered before.  I’m deficient in folate and zinc and starting supplements for both. I’m so glad I decided to go to a new GI!
