This was me last night. And I panicked just like you. But, I am here to say that I am fine, and nothing more came of it. It was probably just the messed up food intake that I have had lately...maybe...

My sil is dealing with the same exact thing. She is emet. and now her 8 year old daughter is showing classic signs and not doing well. She talks about it all day long. She mentions every little...

Funny that you should bring this up! When I went to change my daughter's sheets the other day, I saw a spot just like that on her pillow and on her fitted sheet. This is a common occurence for her....

I smiled a big smile when I read your little song! It was great!

As for the croup...my kids used to get it every fall and every spring. It is such a scary sound, but it is basically like a cold...

I am lucky because my inlaws are all major germophobes. (Not
necessarily emet.) They are freaks with the Purell and hand
washing. It is kind of amazing to watch my mil when she goes to a...

I try so hard not to let my emet. ruin my kids' lives, too. In one of my last posts, I wrote something about not wanting to have other kids to my house, but I wrote that in a panic moment. I am...

I'm a special education pre school teacher. Before this, I taught
2nd grade for 12 years...not the greatest job for an emet. but I love
teaching!

Bothered my tummy when I drank it on an empty stomach. I think
that I even had a bit of loose bm from it. Nothing more than
that, though. I don't know if it helps with sv*, but I do know
that it...

Shiva-



Just saw this post, or I would have responded earlier...I would have
told you that this weather could cause anyone t have a headache!
It is awful and I am sure that it is not much...

At home...Home Alone. We thought that our kids were old enough to
appreciate the humor...and they did. We video taped them laughing
their hearts out.



I tired to go and see The Holiday in...

Good idea...



I refuse to worry anymore about the fact that I ate at a restaurant
last night, ate a salad, drank a glass of wine, and ate more than I
normally do. I then went to the movies,...

Amber, I am so very excited for you! Your ring is beautiful! It sounds like a perfect moment in time that you will remember forever!!!

Congratulations!!!

I'm right there with you all. I was diagnosed hypoglycemic when I was 9 and I am now 34. I try to have high protein foods accessible (peanuts, almonds, cheese, and ham slices). I also have to make...

Shiva,



Funny you should mention plants...I just bought a bunch of amarylis and
paper white plants to have on hand for gifts. I love them!

I am heading to work, but will check in with you later...take care!

I understand not being able to take your own advice, but, your mind is not rational right now...you are thinking with your "amygdala" which is the center that is pure emotion. When you are giving...

Suze, Great idea! I would treasure that for years to come. Here is another idea that was my most favorite of all times that I received last year..... A little boy in my class shared one of his family...

John,

You are such a strong voice on the site...you should go back and re-read some of your posts to other people when you were of rational mind. You give great advice to others and should try to...

I'm with Kayron on the food issue. I am a teacher and tend to only eat food from families that I know are "safe" like me! smileys/smilies_01.gif I always like a gift certificate to Bath and Body...

My cousin is an emet.

My sil is an emet.

My 8 year old niece is an emet.



Crazy...

I am thinking that it is pretty crazy that I kind of hope that tomorrow
isn't a "snow day" because we don't have students and we have our
preschool staff Christmas gift exchange. I LOVE snow days,...

I think that we could quote the whole movie and laugh like crazy. Hopefully, the laughing will help you feel better.

Take care! I am off to work, but I hope that your afternoon is restful.

LOL!!!

"Could it be any hooter...I mean hotter in here?"

"Tis the season to be merry!"
"My name is Mary!"
"No s***!"

Sounds like a perfect day to watch Christmas Vacation, too!!!! We watched it the other night and cracked up, even after seeing it a thousand times!

A nice cozy bath always helps me when I feel...

I have always found great success with saline nasal spray. It is natural and non-addicting. If you don't have any at home, I just mix some table salt in warm water and drop it in with a straw...works...
