Guest guest Posted June 18, 2001 Report Share Posted June 18, 2001 Remember: No one can ruin your day without YOUR permission. Once upon a time there was an island where all the feelings lived; happiness, sadness, knowledge, and all the others, including love. One day it was announced to all of the feelings that the island was going to sink to the bottom of the ocean. So all the feelings prepared their boats to leave. Love was the only one that stayed. She wanted to preserve the island paradise until the last possible moment. When the island was almost totally under love decided it was time to leave. She began looking for someone to ask for help. Just then Richness was passing by in a grand boat. Love asked, "Richness, Can I come with you on your boat?" Richness answered, " I'm sorry, but there is a lot of silver and gold on my boat and there would be no room for you anywhere." Then Love decided to ask Vanity for help who was passing in a beautiful vessel. Love cried out, "Vanity, help me please." "I can't help you," Vanity said, "You are all wet and will damage my beautiful boat." Next, Love saw Sadness passing by. Love said, " Sadness, please let me go with you." Sadness answered, "Love, I'm sorry, but, I just need to be alone now." Then, Love saw Happiness. Love cried out, " Happiness, please take me with you." But Happiness was so overjoyed that he didn't hear Love calling to him. Love began to cry. Then, she heard a voice say, "Come Love, I will take you with me." It was an elder. Love felt so blessed and overjoyed that she forgot to ask the elder his name. When they arrived on land the elder went on his way. Love realized how much she owed the elder. Love then found Knowledge and asked, "Who was it that helped me?" "It was Time," Knowledge answered. "But why did Time help me when no one else would?", Love asked. Knowledge smiled and with deep wisdom and sincerity, answered, "Because only Time is capable of understanding how great Love is." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted November 30, 2001 Report Share Posted November 30, 2001 << Well just thought I would let ya'll know I have a job here at a local grocery store decorating cakes >> A lot of our grocery stores as well as Walmart, etc., use people that can't do a lot of hard work or are unable to stand on there feet too long. They also know pain when they see it and take care that the worker is taken care of. At the door of our Walmart today they had a lady in a wheelchair checking that people that come in to return something has ticket or what they need. A job gives people back their self respect and give them a feeling of being needed. Take care, Irene Books may well be the only true magic Alice Hoffman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 5, 2001 Report Share Posted December 5, 2001 I was wondering if anyone had any info on the use of growth hormones to treat our disease. I had recently talked to a friend who took it for other reason but the things it did to his body and changed were all things that would help us incredibly. So I want to know if anyone out there has ever used it or has any other info on it. I did a web search but that wasn't real helpful at all. Please let me know. Thank guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 14, 2003 Report Share Posted January 14, 2003 Hiya Nadine! As for back pain, ask about your psoas and illiopsoas. I had a hell of a time with these. They control lifting your knee, but insert right in the lower back. I *thought* I had back trouble until I started working these seriously and stretching them. I have found that they were a lot more of a problem than I had imagined. Stretches: Lie on back, hold knee and draw one leg up to your chest while keeping the other straight on the floor. Exercise: Rowing machine and try to do a full stroke. I usually take a minute or two to warm up before I can (easily) get a full range of motion. Don't overdo it. Start with a mile or less and see how it goes. I've been doing both of these a lot for the last month and have noticed quite a bit of improvement. Hope all goes well for you.

Guest guest Posted February 26, 2004 Report Share Posted February 26, 2004 BTW, I forgot to indicate that he has been barely eating--BRAT mostly. He did have some potato soup but was neauseous afterwards, so afraid to eat.. Another thing, after every BM, he has been having these terrible " chills " and just shakes for 5 minutes. I remember Bert, when he was so sick, was pilled high with blankets, because he was so cold after a chemo treatment--but my brother hasn't had any chem or radiation since 2/19!

Guest guest Posted May 17, 2006 Report Share Posted May 17, 2006 , Thanks so much for the reply. I really appreciate it. One possibility they think is that the nickel bridges put in my mouth had VERY high electrical currents, measured over 350. He said that was off the charts. The arsenic in my red blood cell mineral analysis was 99th percentile. WHERE in the heck am I getting arsenic? I did eat a lot of shellfish for a long long time. I am a fast metabolizer. I knew that for sure. The overproduction of adrenaline is what has perplexed me. They thought at first I had an adrenal tumor (pheochromocytoma) but I was negative for that. Mornings it is all I can do to get out of bed as I am shaking, trembling and very fearful. I did test positive for stachybotrys black mold exposure so that could have screwed up the adrenals. Thanks SO MUCH for your input. Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted May 17, 2006 Report Share Posted May 17, 2006 > > These are my results. I would appreciate any input. THANKS SO MUCH. > Someone said I did not meet the counting rules for mercury. My boron is off the > charts. I am so confused on this. > > Bill You do not meet the counting rules. You could still be mercury toxic. You do have some lead and arsenic, and those could be causing problems. The lead doesn't look that high, but Andy says even in low yellow it could be causing problems. The arsenic looks fairly significant. DMSA is best for lead and ALA is best for arsenic. Both will chelate mercury if it is present. The high boron confuses me a bit. One possibility is hair test contamination from boron in a borax-based laundry or soap, or flame retardant chemical. Another possibility is you have been exposed to a lot of boron from a similar source and absorbed it. It is worth considering those possibilities. Flame retardant clothing/bedding that explicitly does not contain antimony may use boron instead. When mineral transport is deranged, boron can become elevated even though it is not really high in the body. Usually there would be some other sign of mineral transport derangement on the hair test. Your test is not even close on the counting rules and none of the elevated elements raises suspicion on this front. However, I do not think it is a normal test. Many essentials are in white - I find that odd. Sorry I can't be more definitive about this test. I think mercury could be there, but I can't find anything in Andy's book to really support this based on the hair test. Old exposure and/or interventions (diet/supps/etc) can result in a better-looking test. Your pattern of Ca/Mg/Na/K is very suggestive of adrenal problems of the type with over-production of adrenaline and under-production of cortisol. Adrenal support is helpful for many people. Your Ca/K, Na/Mg, and Ca/P ratios in combination suggest impaired immune function. Andy's book recommends thymus glandular for this. You are a fast metabolizer, so digestive enzymes, high fat diet, and vitamin D are recommended.
