Oh heavens no! Not Camel Poops! It's much too drab there.

We live in the Slocan Valley about 45 minutes drive from Nelson ... or Castlegar, depends which way you turn at the junction.

I hear a Hyesterectomy isn't quite as envasive as it used to be. I had one years ago. I hope the recovery is shorter now!

Would you believe my mom had a total in 1946 .... could you imagine the surgery then! She almost didn't recover. :(

Yes, hysterectomies now they do through the navel not like mine 2o years ago. Ah Nelson, home of the Freedomite Dukabours...they should have taught you how to get your clothes off and dance naked. Yes, I would not wish to live in Camel Poops, it is always depressing there unlike othe places in BC.

Psst, I think Thor drank all of my champagne that drunken sot of a cat.

Probably, like most other things, they've streamlined the whole procedure. I will come home after only 2 days--but the total recouperation is still about 6 weeks.

Wow--1946, I imagine it was much more dangerous then.

Yes, the old sect of doukabours have pretty much died out now. The younger ones just get into mischief out of bordom and then blame the religion.

When we moved here 30 years ago though there were signs in all the school staff room about what to do in case of a bombing. That was scary with our kids going there.

But it is a very beautiful place of lakes and rivers and golf courses :lol:

Oh ... does that mean that I have to give Sheba some wine to catch up with the drunken cat? How about cat nip, did your cats get some for Christmas?

Yup, 1946 surgery was pretty primitive. Mom had scars across her whole belly. I was born at home and the drunken old doctor didn't clean her out properly, so she got gangarine in the womb. That must have been terrible. Imagine, three kids and all that at the age of 20! Wow.

Anyway, we must go on to something much more festive.

Six weeks is normal recovery on a hysterectomy but the operation isn't as severe.

When I was a kid all the Dukabours used to take off their clothes and burn their houses because they said god told them to do that. He never told them to do it in the winter though.

Save me, save me..........I won't make it. I think that I'm going to bail.

What better a night to talk to some great buds with jammies on. Toast the new year and send wishes for good health, fortune and happiness to all of you. Kisses to you on the midnight hour. :)

A wonderfu new year to all of you.

Either one is plausible ;)

Yes, the last fire they set was about 3 years ago, but it was a government building here in the valley that Selkirk college uses, or used, they distroyed it.

Their homes were common, and like you said, always when it was warm enough to rebuild. :lol: But all government property was fair game as well.

And when that happened you had a court room full of naked people ... mostly women. Strange, I would have thought women had more sense. :rolleyes:

Yes, working tomorrow is a bummer.

We are going out to the local restaurant for dinner. A friend owns it and does a nice safe dinner for me.

Dinner out sounds nice! I'm still leary of eating out. That's actually one of my resolutions--to get out more and back into life a bit.

Wow, for triple pay, i would work too! Good for you .... Hope it's not a hard day though

We go out a fair amount. There is a Chinese restaurant in Nelson that makes gluten free Chinese food, including chow mein, sweet and sour pork, chicken balls, fried rice etc. And quite a few of their soups are gluten free, and best of all gluten free fish and chips that are better than the normal ones!

M-m-m, that gluten-free Chinese food sounds wonderful! I could go for some right now, actually! :P

Me too, but they don't deliver this far out :(:lol:

Anyway, we will go into Nelson sometime in the next week or two and then I will have some :rolleyes:

I haven't been off the property since the 18th ... it's time to go out and do something.

      Hello,   I contacted the makers of Alpine Original Spiced Cider Drink Mix and they sent me this email.....   Subject: [EXTERNAL] Fw: Ref.

      Family education

      By trents · Posted

      @Rogol72, dermatitis herpetiformis occurs in a minority of celiac patients and if the OP hasn't developed it yet I doubt it will show up in the future. I think it unwise to use a scare tactic that probably won't materialize in the OP's experience. It has a good chance of backfiring and having the opposite effect.

      By Rogol72 · Posted

      Hi @trents, You're correct. The OP mentioned fatigue and vitamin deficiencies as the only symptoms at the time of diagnosis. Since the family are not taking him/her seriously and find them to be too fussy, I suggested showing them pictures of dermatitis herpetiformis as one of the consequences of not taking the gluten-free diet seriously ... would make life easier for him/her, and the family might begin to take his/her strict gluten-free diet more seriously. A picture says a thousand words and the shock factor of dermatitis herpetiformis blisters might have the desired effect. The OP did say ... "How do you deal with people close to you who just refuse to understand? Are there any resources anyone could recommend for families that are short and easy to read?".  @sillyyak52, It might also help mentioning to your family that Coeliac Disease is genetic and runs in families. Any one of them could develop it in the future if they have the HLA DQ 2.5 gene. Here's a Mayo Clinic study calling for screening of family members of Coeliacs ... https://newsnetwork.mayoclinic.org/discussion/mayo-clinic-minute-celiac-disease-screening-for-family-members/ https://newsnetwork.mayoclinic.org/discussion/mayo-clinic-study-calls-for-screening-of-family-members-of-celiac-disease-patients/ I got glutened a few months ago because I missed the may contains statement on a tub of red pesto. It was my own fault but it happens.

      Cycle of dermatitis herpetiformis

      By Hopeful1950 · Posted

      Oh yes.  I would never recommend taking it for an extended period of time.  When 70% of my body was covered in blistering itchy sores, an amazing doctor prescribed it diagnostically because I was unwilling to do a gluten challenge after already going strictly gluten-free in desperation after 10 years of suffering and being poo pooed by dermatologist after dermatologist. The fact that it stopped the itch and mostly cleared the rash after about 2 months was diagnostic for him.  I stopped it and have remained strictly gluten-free with very few flares since that time (over 10 years ago).  So the fact that it cleared the rash was diagnostic for me.
