just throw in a

"well, natch!" at the end of everything

:lol: :lol:

Well, I just posted on the OMG thread (but forgot to add in a 'natch')

DINNER?!?!?.....and oh WEEEEzie!!! ....dirty little goil (like Nikki...a little 'angry skank') :lol:

Al's appt was another Pre -Op - Assessment.

He's having 2 varicose veins stripped from his leg on Wednesday........I think the hosp are a little panicked now (as am I :( )...they want to speak to his Cardiologist (at Great Ormond St in London) and need ALL info faxed over

He's had plenty of general anaesthetics - but they've always been at BIG paediatric hospitals in London

This'll be his first op at me local (tin-pot in comparison) hosp.......kind of wishing I'd insisted on Great Ormond St now :(

It's supposed to be a day case (fingers crossed, but he nearly ALWAYS has some sort of complication).....really hope so.....'cos they'll be NO gluten-free dinners available I'm sure :lol:

NICOLA!

this sounds so stressful! :o And painful! Poor Alsy......may I ask, why does this need to happen? veins stripped? :(

My mom and a couple of friends have had some varicose veins injected or removed..... <ouch> They did quite well and it was outpatient surgery.......uncomfortable for a couple of days. Sounds like Al's is more complicated?

Varicose veins (age 16!!)....harumphfff!!!!...I also thought it was a simple (maybe injected?) op....but he's gotta have stitches, dressings ...nurse will be coming out on home visits

..but the main concern is the anaesthesia as he's got a bit of a dodgy ticker :(

Well NATCH!!...it always happens to him :rolleyes: (those of you wiv kids know what I mean....if there's a medical prob, he'll get it )...keep y'all informed.

Nik! The best of luck to Our Pson of Psilly...... . . . .what a heinous thing for a sixteen-year old lad to have to go through. . . ...... :(

We'll all be thinking of Al!

Whenever I hear the name "Al', I inadvertently begin to sing "Pallin' With Al", a lovely ditty from The Squirrel Nut Zippers, my favorite Southern Jazz band:

Ah, but the story gets much more interesting with the added bits I've garnered here and there. Will retrieved Sam Hill Manhead from a large collection of garbage in the basement of his work building. Upon examination, we noticed a light pencil scrawling on the bottom of the pedestal - - 3rd. That's it....just "3rd". All right, so we have assumed that Sam Hill was in the offices of a business on the third floor.

I had Will write down the companies that reside up there.

Two law firms.

Caterers

The Embassy of Burundi

A homosexual dating service. Hmmmm, this one seems to warrant a red flag.

A dentist and two oral surgeons

A modeling agency

We need Leeeesa to run with this.

My early thoughts:

S.H. does not have his mouth open, is exposing no teeth or gums. . ..ergo, don't see him being of any use in the dentistry field.

Could he have been used by a catering company as a special centrepiece item? Um, ever??

There are occasions for everything, after all, and occasions where you need to eat. . .. ...

Hmmm....possible connection to Burundi.

Maybe the profiled bust of a great tribal king? He looks rather North American to me.....boring, vacant. . . ..... :lol:

Now, the homosexual dating service. . ......we may be onto something.

Soooozie. . . . was he interested in you physically?

:lol:

Perhaps it does not signify the third floor at all.

Maybe he is the third mold made from a cast.. . ...... . there are two more out there.. . ..

:huh:

Good Morning my RSS :)

It's a lovely wet November day here. Anyone need some extra rain where they are :)

This was sent to me yesterday and I thought I would share with you

When Women Lie

One day, a seamstress was sewing while sitting close to a river and her thimble fell into the river. When she cried out, the Lord appeared and asked, "My dear child, why are you crying?"

The seamstress replied that her thimble had fallen into the water and that she needed it to help her husband make a living for their family. The Lord dipped His hand into the water and pulled up a golden thimble set with sapphires.

"Is this your thimble?" the Lord asked.

The seamstress replied, "No."

The Lord again dipped into the river. He held out a golden thimble studded with rubies.

"Is this your thimble?" the Lord asked. Again,

the seamstress replied, "No."

The Lord reached down again and came up with a leather thimble.

"Is this your thimble?" the Lord asked?

The seamstress replied, "Yes."

The Lord was pleased with the woman's honesty and gave her all three thimbles to keep, and the seamstress went home happy.

Some years later, the seamstress was walking with her husband along the riverbank and her husband fell into the river and disappeared under the water. When she cried out, the Lord again appeared and asked her, "Why are you crying?" "Oh Lord, my husband has fallen into the river!" The Lord went down into the water and came up with George Clooney. "Is this your husband?" the Lord asked.

"Yes," cried the seamstress.

The Lord was furious. "You lied! That is an untruth!"

The seamstress replied, "Oh, forgive me, Lord. It is a misunderstanding.

You see, if I had said 'no' to George Clooney, you would have come up with Brad Pitt. Then if I said 'no' to him, you would have come up with my husband. Had I then said 'yes,' you would have given me all three. Lord, I'm not in the best of health and would not be able to take care of all three husbands, so THAT'S why I said 'yes' to George Clooney. And so the Lord let her keep him.

The moral of this story is:

Whenever a woman lies, it's for a good and honorable reason, and in the best interest of others. That's our story, and we're sticking to it.

Just so.

Can someone please remind me what Lilly Dean is and why she's my friend?

      Wow!! Scott, Trent and Christiana thank you so much for your fast replies!! The information you have shared with me has helped me tremendously.   Thank you for all the articles.  I appreciate you all so much!! I’ll keep you posted in this post.  I will encourage her to get tested.  I feel a little better!

      It was gradual, just not being able to catch my breathe like I always had to take a deep breathe even taking a few steps I would be winded.

      Hi Marie Welcome to the forum. I am so sorry your daughter is pointing the finger at you like this.   I am afraid children of any age can be very cruel to their parents - I certainly look back at some of the things I said to my mother and father in the past, and wish I could unsay them.  Sometimes people just need a safe place to vent, and unfortunately having a go at one's parents is the all too easy option.  If she is anything like me, she will regret what she says one day.  (Oh... if only I had the chance rewind the clock!) I just wanted to add one more thing to Trent's and Scott's excellent posts and that is regarding diet:  I have to say, not one person  (my nutritionist, my gastroenterologist or GP) has EVER suggested that a poor diet was the cause of my coeliac disease.    In all the various clinics I have attended these past nearly 12 years no-one has ever asked if I was brought up on processed food, or questioned if I eat 5 fruit and veg a day.  Sure, unfortunately I am only too well aware that I could do a lot better with my diet and it's a constant challenge for me not to give into what I like (unfortunately I've always had a sweet tooth).   But I know some super healthy 10 fruit and veg a day types who still got coeliac disease, and equally, a lot of people who eat all the wrong stuff and they still have cast iron stomachs. Do encourage her to get checked though - it may be that she hasn't got coeliac disease at all. Come back to us if you need any more support through the process. Cristiana

      Welcome to the forum, @Marie70! The first thing to know is that celiac disease has a genetic base. The two main genes that have been identified as providing the potential to develop celiac disease are HLA-DQ2 and HLA-DQ8. About 40% of  the general population carries one or both of these genes. However, only about 1% of the general population ever develops celiac disease. So, we know that in addition to possessing the genetic potential to develop celiac disease, there has to be some triggering environmental or medical "stress" factor (or factors) that switches the gene or genes on such that they are awakened from their latent condition and become active. What may be the triggering factor (or factors) is the subject of much debate. Here is an article that discusses this subject: Second, what will your daughter have to say if her testing for celiac disease is negative? She may have to add crow to her diet. Third, and this is what I really want to focus on because my wife and I are dealing with something similar in our relationship with our own adult daughter: the real problem is not whatever shortcomings you, as the family cook, may have had when providing meals, the real problem is with your daughter's heart/soul/attitude. If it turns out to be true that she has celiac disease, it is likely she would have developed the condition sooner or later even if her diet had been healthier while growing up. She is angry about the prospect of having to deal with the dietary and social limitations that having celiac disease would impose upon her. She doesn't want to face up to the fact that this may be a new reality that will dramatically changer her life and she is looking for someone or something to blame. And she has conveniently turned her wrath on you rather than saying to herself, "Okay, this is what it is. Now what can I do to make adjustments in order to with it the best way I can?"  When faced with a life-changing reality, people will either accept it for what it is, make adjustments and move on or they will become angry and look for something or someone to blame and get stuck. For now, at least, your daughter has chosen the latter option. Don't let her problem destroy both of you.

      It sounds like you’re carrying a lot of guilt, but please know that you didn’t cause your daughter’s potential celiac disease or your son’s Crohn’s. These conditions have strong genetic components, and while diet can influence symptoms, it does not cause autoimmune diseases. You did the best you could with the knowledge you had at the time, and no parent is perfect. Your daughter’s frustration is understandable, but it’s likely coming from a place of fear and uncertainty rather than true blame. Let her get tested, and if she does have celiac disease, you can support her moving forward. Instead of focusing on guilt, try shifting the conversation toward healing and learning together. You’re not alone, and you don’t deserve to carry this weight on your own. This article might be helpful. She needs to be screened for celiac disease before she can be sure that she has it. Another approach not discussed in the article is a genetic test for celiac disease, which she could do without eating gluten.
