Guest guest Posted March 24, 2011 Report Share Posted March 24, 2011 Check out Escrow.com That might work As I have said, I am willing to go. Heidi Sent from my iPhone  Thanks for volunteering, Mayuri.  Hopefully we can raise the money we need. I would put it in an account, or we can contact Dr. Amen and see if he will accept payment from all over. The only problem is the accounting aspect. We would need to tell someone that we sent a check for “x†amount and that way we will know how much Dr. Amen receives so there won’t be a discrepancy. I would keep record of it—everyone would just have to email me their check number, amount, and when they sent it. But first we need to contact Dr. Amen and see if he would do something like that.  If he wouldn’t, I would be okay with opening an account and then sending one big check for payment. However, we would need another person to basically keep record like described above, so there would be an accounting. (I’m very honest, but I wouldn’t want anyone thinking I’m taking in more than I am sending Dr. Amen—we just need “checks and balances.â€)  But first we need to find 2 more people willing to go to Dr. Amen and be researched—Anyone out there in the Northern CA area??    From: Soundsensitivity [mailto:Soundsensitivity ] On Behalf Of Mayuri Mandel Sent: Wednesday, March 23, 2011 1:34 PMTo: Soundsensitivity Subject: Dr. Amen  Hi! I've been a member of this group almost since its inception, but originally signed up under another name due to privacy concerns. So you won't recognize my name, but I've been around for years, mostly lurking. I also worked directly with Dr. J. for a while (via phone) after purchasing her sound generators, which unfortunately did nothing for me. (Although Dr. J. herself is a pleasure!) I've been through everything from physical therapy to acupuncture to special listening CDs to biofeedback . . . and the only thing that has helped at all so far is a combination of 3 different medications. Even that only takes the edge off--I still walk around almost all day with earplugs in and/or noise-reduction headphones on.  Anyway, I'm right in San Francisco, very close to the California Amen Clinic, and would be happy to be one of the folks who sees Dr. Amen if the group can help raise the money. I'd definitely report back to the group in detail with whatever happened. And I'm willing to kick in a little money myself toward whoever goes, whether it's me or someone else. This sounds like a great chance to do some investigating!  Oh, as a side note--I had a few sessions with our own Tara Economakis, too--she's fantastic, if anyone gets the chance to see her, and while I don't think the self-hypnosis/relaxation she has taught me is up to solving my 4S problem YET, she did show me that I really can relax my nervous system, and I've been practicing daily. My hope is that over time I'll get better and better at it, until I can do it quickly and being relaxed becomes my default mode more often and for longer stretches. From there, hopefully I can start making inroads into the 4S itself.  Like I said, I'm mostly a lurker on this group, but I read the digest almost every day. Thanks to everyone here who is doing so much on our behalf, from the non-profit planning to the fundraising ideas to the new websites and articles that have gone up online. I'm grateful to have you all on my side.  -MayuriGood work, ! That photo of you at the top with your fingers in your ears sums it up perfectly. :-)Best,Jay >> Hi, everyone!> > I just published an article on 4S on Suite 101. I hope it brings attention to our shared suffering... I also directed readers to Marsha's site as well as this group.
