their abbreviation DH may be different from what you were looking

for. I have seen DH used to refer to one's spouse. I don't know

specifically what it stands for but I always assumed it meant Dear

Hubby. I just didn't want you to think someone's talking about their

husband as developmentally handicapped!

celiac...dermatitis hermaskxqzyrxqja (sp)
