Sillies I have a favor to ask and since this is the Silly Thread I guess I am allowed....

I listen to this awesome radio station out of Rochester NY which we found while on our Honeymoon...I stream it over the net at work but it is an actual FM station. My favorite DJ is in a popularity contest with other DJ's in the Rochester area for the next few weeks. He won last week's round and today started a new round. Could you all throw some votes his way for me? It won't let you vote on the same computer more than once a Day. Anyway he has been on the radio for 15-20 years and up there he is very well respected.

The website is called RochesterInsider. You would click on the Radio March Madness link and then hit the vote here button. It will show you 4 match-ups. He is on the bottom of the first column. His name is The Mayor Pete Kennedy and he is matched up against a girl. He is currently losing.

Thanks Everyone!

Ps---- He is a cutie in my eyes too!

if anyone is offended by this I will delete my post too....

They told her she needs to bleach her entire house top to bottom. She is going to try to grab a 2nd opinion now so hopefully she gets somewhere. They always say a mothers instinct and she says she herself feels like something else

is going on

:huh: Bleach???......yeah , the fumes will be really good for a little baby...NOT :angry:

IMO a good doc always listens if Mum thinks there is something wrong

Had a great time--my dad was truly surprised. He is a very quiet gentleman, and true to form, after we all yelled "Surprise" upon his arrival--he calmly turned to me and said--"everyone's here." :rolleyes::lol:

Twas a bit dicey the first hour or so of the drive up--felt some creeping panic but was able to breathe out of it eventually. Amanda--I did look for you--we probably just missed each other. I'm so sorry about poor little Landon.

It was so nice to see everyone--can't remember the last time I laughed so much! When we got into town, we drove by the church we were married in--it was 33 years to the day and almost (by the time we got there) to the hour! Pretty cool....it looked exactly the same :)

33 years Patti???...........NAH - you don't look old enough in your new av (positively GLAM!!)

Glad you had a good time - (and your Dad :) )

EMILY - :lol: Also glad YOUR Mum had a good birthday and loved her bib (how could she not?? :lol: )

Oh heeeellllp me!!!.........what have I done???? :unsure: ..........I seemed to have pulled a muscle in my neck/shoulder.

Watching me 'try' to turn my head is no end of amusement - dunno if I over done it with the 2 gym classes OR it's from crashing out on the couch !!!! :lol:

Where's Jess?? - I neeeed the number of her masseuse :o

Ouch Nikki :( Have you tried applying heat? That is what I do along with some aspirin or whatever you can take.

Your becoming an exercise fiend :lol:

Em puts the Fun in Functional, bib-wise. :)

Bleach entire HOUSE????!!!!!!!!!

That's an alleged solution to a temp of 103?????

Patti!! Great av!!! (You look not a day over 38 you spring chicken you!!) <bawk!>

And a smile :) at the great time you had.

Seeing the church of nuptiality sounds really nice. :)

Amanda, I tried to vote but it doesn't seem to work for me.

Update

What is wrong with the world?

Indeed.....bleach.....no possible ear infection......

Come on. :angry:

I'm back!!!!!

Had a great time--my dad was truly surprised. He is a very quiet gentleman, and true to form, after we all yelled "Surprise" upon his arrival--he calmly turned to me and said--"everyone's here." :rolleyes::lol:

What a GREAT pic, Patti! You look terrific, as does your dad.

Didn't get a shot of me with Mom.....so much going on, I just didn't ever get my hands on the camera.

Sillies I have a favor to ask and since this is the Silly Thread I guess I am allowed....

Done. I'm voting for him on looks alone..... :rolleyes:

33 years Patti???...........NAH - you don't look old enough in your new av (positively GLAM!!)

Totally in agreement. You look young, girl!

Oh heeeellllp me!!!.........what have I done???? :unsure: ..........I seemed to have pulled a muscle in my neck/shoulder.

Heat for ten minutes, then ice for ten minutes...do it for an hour if you can, then take a break and do another hour, say, before you go to bed.

Em puts the Fun in Functional, bib-wise. :)

Ah! Phunny you should choose this word, Ptaum....said bib was anything but functional. :lol: So hilarious....I ended up using thinned acrylic paints, as it was too big an area to be using very expensive fabric paints. Well, the terry of the bib just kept sucking it in, so I was plying the paint on with reckless abandon, as I wanted it to be quite vivid. Well, it is vivid....but I probably used three entire cans of paint. It is rather....stiff. More amusing, it weighs probably fifteen pounds, so my mom put it on and just about collapsed on the couch. :lol: So, she will be wearing it when she is eating while reclining, and there won't be that huge drag on her neck. :lol:

It would probably work well as a dental bib, worn to keep radiation from leaking through to one's body during Xrays. I would bet it's bullet-proof.

Perhaps a whole new market.......

Can Do.

Jen (Landen's mom) has applied for a nursing position in my office which will be better for her. My office is very understanding on families and sick time. It would be better for her right now.

The Sillie votes have put him over the edge--with us behind him, he can't lose :P

This is SO funny....I can just see your poor little mom trying to stand in her bib and saying "yes dear, I love it, really :unsure: ", all the while trying not to topple backward :o

Sounds like a very good idea for her.

So Currently our good-looking DJ is up to 70%, he put that chick in the dust. We have to vote all week so hopefully we can get there :)

He says I represent his PA vote!

Ha! Actually, it went something like this (I'm paraphrasing): Mom snaps the bib around her neck, tries to stand without pitching forward, and shouts, "Un-f*cking-believable!! My neck's gonna snap!" :lol:

She did, however, love the picture itself, and will take it downstairs to their dining room and put it on when she's about to sit down. :rolleyes:

Patti, I bet you look remarkably like your dad...I can see a resemblance in your two faraway picture faces, so it must be very evident in real life!

Just heard from Jen, she finally was able to get poor Landen into the Dr's. Turns out he has a ruptured ear drum.....nuts right?

The poor little thing. Such a shame he had to suffer so long with it :(

Hopefully the meds kick in quickly and he's better soon.

      It is more likely code for “we think there really was a good response to the treatment, but it was small or in a small percent of subjects so it would take a large clinical trial to try to prove it.”

      Thank you so much for your replies. Luckily the rash went away when I completely swore off gluten. It took several months but I have not had a flare in months. So a biopsy is no longer possible. The itch was terrible and apart from bleaching my skin the steroid lotions and potions did nothing. The Gliadin is for accidents and shall be a part of my travel kit from now on. This past exposure has made a me a little leery about eating anything that was not cooked in my kitchen or a dedicated gluten-free restaurant. As much as I used to love baked goods, I am cured and have become quite the gluten free baker to the point that friends and family forget that my cakes/cookies/and bread are not "real". I guess I will have to wait for the new blood test to come out to get confirmation but I have a suspicion that the rash was dermatitis herpetiformis.

      Hello, I just wanted to share with the frustration of skin issues and seeing dermatologist and medications not working for years, I did my own healing experiment. As of last week I have been taking a drop internally under the tongue of Vetiver and putting on topically on sores Yellow/Pom.I am seeing a extreme difference at a rapid time.Im also noticing my nails a little harder. Ive always been into natural properties because I feel its safer for the body.I know short time, but really seeing a difference. I also feel the the trapped gases that causes bloating helps break down as well.Curious if any body else can benefit from and has tried. Products is made by Doterra by Dr Hill

      I agree with @trents, and the rash you described, especially its location and resistance to steroids, sounds highly characteristic of dermatitis herpetiformis, which is the skin manifestation of celiac disease. The severe and prolonged reaction you're describing five days after a small exposure is, while extreme, not unheard of for those with a high sensitivity; the systemic inflammatory response can absolutely last for several days or even weeks, explaining why you still don't feel right. Your plan to avoid a formal gluten challenge is completely understandable given the severity of your reactions, and many choose the same path for their well-being. While experiences with GliadinX (they are a sponsor here) are mixed, some people do report a reduction in the severity of their symptoms when taken with accidental gluten, though it is crucial to remember it is not a cure or a license to eat gluten and its effectiveness can vary from person to person. For now, the absolute best advice is to continue being hyper-vigilant about cross-contamination—buffets are notoriously high-risk, even with good intentions. Connecting with a gastroenterologist and a dermatologist who specialize in celiac disease is essential for navigating diagnosis and management moving forward. Wishing you a swift recovery from this last exposure. If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch:
