Got on here to find some giggles. I found some, but they quickly turned to sobs. I swear, if I hear 1 more person say, "At least it wasn't a cat or a dog, that would have been worse..." I shall SCREAM!!!

WIH??? Love is love :( Jeepers, I loved Mocha and only "knew" him by the pictures and you telling us all about his antics. What a sweet, wee lil' fella--I don't think I'll ever forget the sight of his nose in the paper roll. :wub:

He had such a happy life with your family, Rach. Hug each other a lot and let yerselphes feel ;)

Oh Rachel, I am so sorry about Mocha. Never saw the wee fella, but bunnies do worm their way into your hearts. Grieve now and then remember later :wub:

Max is my saving grace. He keeps looking at me like he's expecting me to explode at any second (I waited for the massive waterworks until they were at school), but I asked him if he was sad this afternoon and he said, "Not anymore... Can we get a dog tomorrow?!" :lol:

Hugs Rachelle. Mocha bunny gave you all he could before he had to go. :(

We just had the burial. Poor Maddie. My heart is breaking for her. Max on the other hand was eying the box, then the hole, then me... "can I do it?" he asks... Um no, since he wanted to throw the box, with "FIRE IN THE HOLE" to follow. Now he's singing a cartoonish song about a dead bunny. Jesse just pulled him aside to talk to him about sensitivity....

Watch out that Max doesn't try ( or succeed) to dig up the body. I have known kids that age that want to see what happens.

No, actually not my boys.

I shall SCREAM!!! I passed a mirror an hour ago and it looks like I've been in a major fight. I guess I have though. I'm going back and forth between fighting with God and repeating the Serenity prayer to myself. Mocha was so very loved in his short time with us. I'm just having a hard time holding my daughter while she sobs, clutching her chest crying that, "It just hurts so bad mama, my heart hurts so bad"

RIP Mocha bunny -_-

So sorry to hear about mocha bunny. I will keep your family and her in my prayers!

love,

:lol:

I don't think he could if he tried. Jesse dug the hole so deep that I could barely reach to the bottom. We let him shovel the dirt back into the hole. He was satisfied with that ;)

OK.....I confess.....

I used to dig up my long-dead hamsters. I would dig up all the wee bones, clean them off, and coat them with clear fingernail polish.

....in the name of science, naturally :P

Sorry to hear about sweet Mocha :(

Had some blood tests run today. I've had swollen lymph glands for 3 weeks WHILST on antibiotics. <_<

When do you get the test results?

Did you put the hamster bones back together like a museum dinosaur?

      Celiac disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result.  I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned?  Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous damage, too! In my own case, my consultant wasn't remotely concerned - in fact, he said I might still get this result even if all I ever did was eat nothing but rice and water.   My coeliac blood tests were still steadily improving, albeit slowly, which was reassuring.
    • trents
      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease or gluten/oats exposure. See attachment. But you might try eliminating oats to start with and possibly dairy for a few months and then seek another endoscopy/biopsy to see if there was a reduction in lymphocyte counts. 
    • Scott Adams
      This is a solid, well-reasoned approach. You’re right that “koji” by itself doesn’t indicate gluten status, and the risk really does come down to which grain is used to culture it. The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especially since Eden has a long-standing reputation for transparency. While the lack of gluten labeling can understandably give pause, manufacturer confirmation like this is often what people rely on for traditionally fermented products. As always, trusting your body after trying it is reasonable, but based on the information you gathered, your conclusion makes sense.
