MommaGoose, our good friend and respected veteran member of the board, has informed me that she is going to eat worms. So i am starting this thread specifically for those of us who know and love her to cheer her up cuz she needs it. She's gonna kill me, but it'll take her awhile to get here so I've got time.

Goosey- You were one of my biggest supporters when I first joined this board. You were the one who encouraged me to take control of Celiac's and not let it control me when I was afraid to go horse back riding because of gluten.. If not for you, I wouldn't have spent last October riding till mu butt was sore. You rock..... there's no two ways about it and I think it's time for a love fest. :wub::wub::wub::wub::wub::wub:

No, she is not leaving us. But she is down and we have certainly all been there and will be there again. So, what Beverly is saying is that we need to tell Lisa that she is very much loved on this board and that we treasure her for all of her contributions. So, Lisa I am sending MANY HUGS to you and may you wrap yourself in them to give you comfort.

No she is not leaving us but she's bummed and wants to go eat worms:

Nobody likes me, everybody hates me,

Guess I'll go eat worms,

Long, thin, slimy ones; Short, fat, juicy ones,

Itsy, bitsy, fuzzy wuzzy worms.

Down goes the first one, down goes the second one,

Oh how they wiggle and squirm.

Up comes the first one, up comes the second one,

Oh how they wiggle and squirm.

It's called The Worm Song

Open Original Shared Link Oh .... gotta run... I SEE HER!

Tiffany- You're so funny!

2Boys4Me- I have to admit, I saw the hockey mask and thought of Friday the 13th :ph34r: (which is tomorrow).

MommaGoose- Night night, sleep tight and don't let the worms bite

MommaGoose! CANADA LOVES YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!

You can't eat worms, they haven't been confirmed gluten free yet...... :P

Got the package today! YIPPEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!

Just to let you know: I am making grits casserole tomorrow! Oh, gingerbread halloweeen treats AND the jawbreakers are already all gone! You should have seen the kids' faces, each one having different coloured lips depending on what colour they got! :lol:

Regarding the stuff you sent me, what can I say, except you mean the world to me too and I thank God every single day that he sent me friends like you to carry me through the rough days, so my friend, let me carry you when you need it...... :)

Will call you tomorrow, just got home now from Mom's place. I stocked her up with all kinds of soups and stuff that will be easy to digest. Apparently, the doctor said she might be able to come home tomorrow so I went over and tidied up her place, washed her dishes, laundry etc. Also, I washed out and put away her ashtrays. It has been six days she has been in the hospital and hasn't had a cigarette and we are praying that she won't light up when she gets home. The doctors were really concerned about her CO2 intake, which was only at 88% (she has COPD from being a lifelong smoker). I promised her that if she quit, I would quit along with her..... THAT'S WHEN I'M GONNA NEED PLENTY OF CHEERING ON SO THERE IS NO WAY YOU CAN HAVE YOUR MOUTH FULL OF WORMS!!!!!

Hugs, luv ya Darlink!

Isn't there a movie out about a kid that eats worms? I know there's a book about it! MommaGoose, are you gonna eat them fried, boiled, sauteed....? Or you stick a hook in 'em and drop a line in the nearest pit for some bass. A fishfry sounds like more fun than eating worms!

Yes, very cute song.....don't think I know that one. Always learning something here.....

Momma Goose - glad you're staying. If simply for the fact that you bring silly jokes and think we're funny on the 40-something thread, you are quite funny yourself, and you add a lot. :)

Pretty sure worms are gluten-free. ;)

See- I told you so :wub::wub::wub:

If I COULD eat worms, they would have to be covered in chocolate, stuufed with peanut butter then put in a Twinkie and deep fried. And that's just not gonna happen!

      How Come Gluten Didnt Bother Me In Italy

      By Theresa2407 · Posted

      Maybe you have a low  intolerance to Wheat.   Rye, Barley and Malt are the gluten in Celiac disease.  It has always been stated Wheat and Gluten, not just a Wheat intolerance.  Barley will keep me in bed for (2) weeks.  Gut, Migrains, Brain fog, Diahrea.  It is miserable.  And when I was a toddler the doctor would give me a malt medicine because I always had Anemia and did not grow.  Boy was he off.  But at that time the US didn't know anyone about Celiac.  This was the 1940s and 50s.  I had my first episode at 9 months and did not get a diagnosis until I was 50.  My immune system was so shot before being diagnoised, so now I live with the consequences of it. I was so upset when Manufacturers didn't want to label their products so they added barley to the product.  It was mostly the cereal industry.  3 of my favorite cereals were excluded because of this. Malt gives me a bad Gut reaction.

      Possible celiac - need advice

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Do you have the results of your endoscopy? Did you do a celiac disease blood panel before that?  Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:

      Celiac or not??

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It is odd that your Tissue Transglutaminase (TTG) IgA level has bounced from the "inconclusive" range (7.9, 9.8) down to a negative level (5.3), only to climb back up near the positive threshold. This inconsistency, coupled with your ongoing symptoms of malabsorption and specific nutrient deficiencies, is a strong clinical indicator that warrants a more thorough investigation than a simple "satisfactory" sign-off. A negative blood test does not definitively rule out celiac disease, especially with such variable numbers and a classic symptomatic picture. You are absolutely right to seek a second opinion and push for a referral to a gastroenterologist. A biopsy remains the gold standard for a reason, and advocating for one is the most direct path to getting the answers you need to finally address the root cause of your suffering.

      How Come Gluten Didnt Bother Me In Italy

      There is a distinction between gluten itself and the other chemicals and processing methods involved in modern food production. Your experience in Italy and Greece, contrasted with your reactions in the U.S., provides powerful anecdotal evidence that the problem, for some people, may not be the wheat, but the additives like potassium bromate and the industrial processing it undergoes here. The point about bromines displacing iodine and disrupting thyroid function is a significant one, explaining a potential biological mechanism for why such additives could cause systemic health issues that mimic gluten sensitivity. It's both alarming and insightful to consider that the very "watchdog" agencies meant to protect us are allowing practices banned in many other developed countries. Seeking out European flour and your caution about the high-carb, potentially diabeticgenic nature of many gluten-free products are excellent practical takeaways from your research, but I just want to mention--if you have celiac disease you need to avoid all wheat, including all wheat and gluten in Europe.
