I Lost A Friend Last Weekend

I knew this girl since we were teenagers. When she was 8, she had a cancerous brain tumor. She beat the cancer, but she never grew again. So she was the size of an 8 yr old. My dh grew up w/ her family. We found out yesterday that she died in a car accident over the weekend. I don't know much, but from what I have heard, the accident wasn't very bad, but because of her poor general health, she didn't make it. I feel so bad for her family. Her father has also been suffering from Parkinsons for the last few years. She lived with her parents, and she was so loved by all her siblings and neices and nephews. She was so kind and just a wonderful person to be around. It is so sad that she was taken away so early in her life. We are about to leave for her funeral.

Please pray for her family and close friends. She will be horribly missed by everyone who knew her.

      What would you do - neighbor brought gluten-free pizza from Papa Murphy's

      Domino's and Mountain Mike also has glutenfree pizza.However the issue is the cross contamination. Not worth a few minutes of yum yums i n the taste buds with a painful explosion later.

      Why Celiac Diagnosis Still Takes Years—and How to Change That

      Withholding the treatment (strict gluten-free diet) until the very end to me is the biggest obstacle to getting more people "identified" with gluten intolerance/Celiac. The strict gluten-free diet in my opinion is both the effective treatment and also a valuable diagnostic tool. My personal advice would be to go on a properly administered gluten-free diet...

      Reverse Osmosis (RO) Water

      I don't recall seeing "many people here recommending RO water," but reverse osmosis (RO) water is water that has been purified by forcing it through a very fine membrane that removes dissolved salts, heavy metals, fluoride, nitrates, PFAS, and many other contaminants. It is one of the most thorough household filtration methods available and can be especially...

      With the wide availability of frozen prepared gluten-free pizzas, for example DiGiorno's, it's probably best to avoid the risk of eating pizza in restaurants that also make regular pizza.

      Reverse Osmosis (RO) Water

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I don't recall seeing "many people here recommending RO water," but reverse osmosis (RO) water is water that has been purified by forcing it through a very fine membrane that removes dissolved salts, heavy metals, fluoride, nitrates, PFAS, and many other contaminants. It is one of the most thorough household filtration methods available and can be especially beneficial in areas with well water or known contamination concerns. While RO systems also remove beneficial minerals like calcium and magnesium and may produce slightly “flat”-tasting water, most dietary minerals come from food rather than drinking water, so this is not usually a health concern for most people. Overall, RO water is very clean and safe to drink, and it can be a smart option where water quality is questionable, though it may not be necessary in areas with well-tested municipal water.
