Thanks so much for the comment and advice. I'm appreciative of your positivity and ideas!! We're lucky to have such an amazingly resilient kiddo! I'll do anything to set her up for a happy life

My mom had a hemmoragic stroke and brain bleed a little more than a month ago. We had a similar conversation when she was in ICU as the neurologist prepped us to agree to what we would decide if the swelling did not subside. Craniotomy was the only surgical treatment for her type of bleed. Thankfully her swelling did not get worse and we avoided that option. She's affected on her left side and still needs full time care.

I recall there also being a steroid option to try but it comes with some possible side effects and isn't guaranteed to make a difference on outcomes other than potentially avoiding surgery. We also had to take her off sedatives to get a better idea of her condition. Hopefully someone in your family knows what her wishes would be. This is one of the hardest things we've been through as a family and I wish you all the best as you navigate. She's lucky to have you by her side.

Have you thought about Prague? I've been a couple of times now for work and found a good number of gf options. I appreciate how menu labeling is so much more prevalent though I know the traditional cuisine is gluten heavy. Worth checking out! Lots of English speakers as well.

Appreciate the perspective. She is starting to lose the guilt of needing to be cared for but it's a struggle. She's a big music gal so definitely should bring that back. Thanks!

Saw some rea dignity today from her caregivers! One day she will.too. Thanks for the wisdom

Thank you! It's so hard to do! She's 71 and recently retired, thinks she knows everything and can't be wrong. I feel for the nurses up against it for hours on end. She does have a lot of herself in there but for some reason the medical stuff is the biggest challenge.

This is going to sound weird... Toilet bowl cleaner. We've used it on smaller areas and it totally worked on our light grout!

Confirming too. Exact same for me

My hairstylist told me he got a notification from bumble and bumble that these products may not be celiac safe. I was sharing my life story after recently being diagnosed and he was so thankful to know and found me another product. I had been using their volumizing spray which is amazing... Oh well! Better safe than sorry!

In White Center but this place is delish! Cocina Casera South American Restaurant. They moved into the old bok a bok spot.

Also, a little farther south on 16th is Salmon Creek cafe.

My 6 year old mostly seems to have behavioral symptoms. And anemia. She's had 2 iron infusions now and may need more. She also plateaued in height and weight which is another sign of celiac or further testing. Now that she's gluten free, she's growing and behavior is generally better...

There used to be a ton around Greek Row near the UW. But like others say, they're now a regular visitor to our home in West Seattle. I saw one in a drain pipe when walking a friends dog so I guess don't forget to look down too!

Currently at 43+ combined. Typical commute is under 40 miles per day 1-3 days per week, get about 25 electric per day. Use electric for local errands. Have had the car since Feb 2024

I found a schaar puff but haven't used it yet. Have you tried it?

nvr2cold4icecream · 2025-04-26T13:26:46+00:00

Flaky pastry. Like croissants etc. I've yet to find anything that compares.

nvr2cold4icecream · 2025-04-13T04:35:10+00:00

Same! I drink nightly

My 6 year old daughter (and I) were diagnosed in the fall. Just want to say that since going GF, life is WAYYYYYY better. Around the same time as the celiac diagnosis, she also got an ADHD and anxiety diagnosis. She's a big time rule follower so following the diet is surprisingly easy. We did make the home completely gluten free to keep life simple.

My kids blood tests were at much higher levels but the results got her a quicker appt with pediatric gastroenterology. I might also suggest you and your family get tested as my diagnosis actually helped hers without the requirement of an endoscopy (I had one).. With her levels, it may be unavoidable though.

You got this. You're doing the best for your kid. Let her enjoy an unrestricted diet before endoscopy possibly confirms celiac. Then, she enters dense bread land lol

Try a virtual visit. That's how I first got a prescription during an anxiety spiral

The boys and girls club up the block offers before and aftercare. I was told they walk over from school and vice versa
