I knew that there were multiple levels & types of pulses, but

Believe it or not, against my will, he gave me the shot...

& will have to have the entire fusion redone, more complicated this

time. And, I will have to delay it until after the conference, as I

don't have enough time to heal properly pre-conference...

I only stopped the Tuina, because…it became very, very expensive,

when he suddenly left my rheumatologist…& wasn't insurance covered...

I would like to formally volunteer my pulse, wrist, etc., whatever

you need for your study & am fascinated & we simply must find a way

for me to assist you in you plans for the conference. I am arriving

in Buffalo on Sunday, as I offered, several months ago to help the

crowd up in Buffalo, so depending on when you intend to get there,

we could plan something then or before & somewhere in between. I

will be staying at Sue's house, while we work on conference stuff

from the time I arrive on Suday, until I beleive, onTues. when we go

to the hotel. So, let's be in touch...

(1) I figure I have already thrown so much weird stuff at the

list, and no one has pulled my plug, that I am just going to keep

taking advantage of opportunities as they present themselves to

further educate them about some of this. (On the other hand, I

don't know how many use the " delete before reading " button.)

(2) Yes, I would. Nothing surprises me anymore.

(3) I want a shot at your ankle in Buffalo, to see if there is

anything I can do to help with your short-term pain levels.

(4) That's a major problem with a lot of the alternative

approaches. They either are not covered by insurance at all, or if

they are selectively covered, you can't find a primary health care

provider who will write the prescription for it. Not only that, how

in the world would I code some of the stuff I do? " Code 375 –

pointed finger at problem. " Not apt to get quick reimbursement

approval that way.

(5) I don't have any formal " game plan " yet for the conference. I

have several different personal goals and objectives in mind for

attending. One obvious one, like everybody else, is to put a few

faces with names. I would like to be able to give some " demos " on

some of this stuff to help clarify how it is actually done and to

answer questions that people might have. I also think if I can get

my hands in " treatment mode " on people, that it will help to tune

people in to be able to actually sense the energy themselves for

self-help. And I know that there are some with questions about

locating specific acupressure points. In addition, I would like to

be able to do brief demos on things like lymphatic work so people

who might be considering having it done can feel how gentle and non-

invasive it actually is. Then there is the issue of some research

that I hope to do in terms of Pulse Diagnostics and Visceral

Manipulation organ listening correlations. And finally, to

just " work on " as many people as I can while there. I know I can use

some help with getting every thing scheduled while there. Cindy

has also volunteered to help with some of the hands-on stuff

that she knows how to do.

(6) As for when we plan on getting to Buffalo, that is still up in

the air. We have a confirmed room reservation starting Wednesday

the 14th and running through Sunday the 18th. Pre-conference, the

only thing definite is that we look to be in Atlanta Georgia on

Saturday the 10th to attend a wedding. Early on when I first

started talking about even going to the conference, I had tossed it

out to Bonnie to swing by and pick her and up if Ray couldn't

get off to go. I had also tossed it out to Cindy to detour

through Detroit on the way to Buffalo. Since then, Cindy elected to

cash some bonus miles and fly and Bonnie isn't sure yet whether Ray

is going to take off and they are going to drive or not, or at least

that is what I think I heard my wife say a couple of days ago. So,

if we go from Atlanta to Milwaukee to Buffalo, we would arrive in

Buffalo sometime on Wednesday the 14th. If we don't go to Milwaukee

first, we would arrive in Buffalo sometime on Monday the 12th

because it is only 900 miles from Atlanta to Buffalo. I know that

you and Aase are both coming in ahead of time to Sue's, plus I have

no idea who else might be there early. Find me a place to set up

and I could work on/with whoever in the day or two before the

conference started. I just need to confirm what Bonnie's plans are

going to be first.
