MORGELLONS,TRUTH OR FICTION?

Sign-up for the weekly newsletter digest that is packed with the latest news in healthy living, you need this resource interactive
write to me at webriter@verizon.net or mark_my_bailey@yahoo.com.
***************MORGELLONS******************
I keep hearing rumors about this dreaded disease, It seems to be characterized by a creepy crawly feeling, "as if something is beneath the skin like a parasite" People say the creepy crawly beneath the skin is fibers or bundles of fibers, some which appear to be fibers from rugs or clothing, but others insist that under microscopic examination the fibers are gelatinous even possibly growing and multiplying. Some have said that it is caused by eating genetically modified corn, some say the cause is completely unknown, Still others insist it is an hysterical condition, the fibers being inserted in the skin while scratching from a psychological aberration that the sufferer has.
Another item to this mix is that that no less an institution of reliability- the CDC, you remember the center of disease control, yeah those folks,are beginning to investigate veracity of the claims of at least 150 people in San Francisco who claim to have this disease. One woman in this group claims to have something like tiny green shrimp coming out of her face. Is it any wonder that people who are dignified and wear extra letters after their August names see the people who claim to have this disease as macadamias, or at the very best- filberts.

I will present what I have found and you can decide for yourself.

I want to add one other factor before we go into details, I just want to give you a list here: Candidiasis, Fibromyalgia, CFS, MCS, Agent Orange disease, and Desert Storm disease. What do these have in common, they also were not recognized as diseases for a very long time by the A.M.A. This by no means is an exclusive list, it is merely the tip of the iceberg.

First I want to present the evidence a given in Wikipedia. They quote the CDC as saying, "that it is not known at present whether the condition represents a new disease entity, or whether persons who identify themselves as having Morgellons have a common cause for their symptoms, share common risk factors, or are contagious." The CDC is still on-the-fence as their investigation is not complete, Wiki also presents, "According to an article written by the Mayo Clinic staff, health professionals are divided in their attitudes about Morgellons: some believe it is a specific condition and expect it to be confirmed by research in the future; some believe it is not a separate condition, rather its symptoms result from other conditions, often psychological; and some do not acknowledge Morgellons disease at all or reserve judgment until more is known about the condition."

Gee, it still sounds like what the medicos were saying for years about Fibromyalgia, and since the Army doesn't want to pay out the suits concerning Desert Storm disease, they are still saying; that these conditions do not exist except in the minds of the sufferers. However, she hastens to add, this is not empirical evidence that it and Morgellons.

Also presented for your perusal and consideration is this site, which features photos of the 'fibers' that seem to inhabit the epidermis of the affected victims. I can in no way verify the origin of these photos, whose skin they were take from or exactly what we are seeing, WARNING: these are very graphic photos.

On the CBS news [wow all the most prestigious sources have a three letter designation, just as the researchers and members of the A.M.A. have the 'piled higher and deeper' after their names] it was said, "
There may be a dramatic new breakthrough for hundreds of Texans who suffer from a mysterious disease. CBS 11 News was the only station at a medical conference that uncovered new research in the fight to prove Morgellons Disease is real.
…
In 2007, Dr. Stricker and experts in agrobacterium studied skin samples from seven Morgellons patients and found the DNA from the bacteria in all seven samples. Now the question is, how are people getting the bacteria in their bodies.

Firstly, this is not new, it’s over a year old. These findings were reported in January, 2007 - over a year ago.

Secondly, and more importantly, there is a very easy explanation as to how the bacteria got in their bodies: catheters.

So, here it is friends and neighbors all the unbiased information at your fingertips. Remember not one bit of this is very helpful to the many, many people who claim they are suffering terribly from this or some other condition that feels like this.

As for me, I'm still working to get well, I'm staying in the arena of alternative medicine because I believe in it, and because I've never had any help from Allopathic medicine, I've been overdosed at a Young age with antibiotics, had drunk doctors operating on me, had a stroke at age 20 from the 'safe' birth control pills and woke up during surgery, every single prescribed drug I was given has caused terrible reactions... So it's no wonder I feel this way, if you've had wonderful doctors I'm glad for you, I hear it's not exactly common, but I'm glad for you.

I am taking CellPower™ because for one thing it does have lots of digestive enzymes in it, also it helps to balance the pH levels and is antibiotic, anti-viral-and anti-fungal AND IT PACKS THE CELLS WITH LIFE-GIVING OXYGEN, AND ENERGY. And:SELENIUMhelps immune system,fights infection and aids circulation
~MAGNESIUMhelps to relax you, aids stress and muscle relaxing
~CHROMIUMimproves insulin sensitivity, and helps lower blood sugar.
~ZINC especially to help you heal.
I also eat, one of the best fats for the Omega-3~6 balance and losing weight.
~coconut oil


And I am substantially benefiting from each and every method I recommend.

THE MEANING OF LIFE
Being a veterinarian, I had been called to examine a ten-year old Irish Wolfhound named Belker. The dog's Owners, Ron, his wife, Lisa, and their little boy, Shane, Were all very attached to Belker and they were hoping for a miracle.
I examined Belker and found he was dying of cancer. I told the family. We couldn't do anything for Belker, and offered to perform the euthanasia procedure for the old dog in their home. As we made arrangements, Ron and Lisa told me they thought it would be good for the four-year old Shane to observe the procedure. They felt as though Shane might learn something from the experience.
The next day, I felt the familiar catch in my throat as Belker's family surrounded him. Shane seemed so calm, petting the old dog for the last time, that I wondered if he understood what was going on. Within a few minutes, Belker slipped peacefully away. The little boy seemed to accept Belker's transition without any difficulty or confusion. We sat together for a while after Belker's death, wondering aloud about the sad fact that animal lives are shorter than human lives.
Shane, who had been listening quietly, piped up, "I know why." Startled, we all turned to him. What came out of his mouth next stunned me. I'd never heard a more comforting explanation. He said, "People are born so that they can learn how to live a good life ---like loving everybody all the time and being nice, right?" The four-year-old continued, "Well, dogs already know how to do that, so they don't have to stay as long."

God and the Scientist
God was sitting in heaven one day when a scientist said to Him,
"God, we don't need you anymore. Science has finally figured out a way to create life out of nothing - in other words, we can now do what you did in the beginning."
"Oh, is that so? Tell Me..." replies God.
"Well," says the scientist, "we can take dirt and form it into the likeness of you and breathe life into it, thus creating man."
"Well, that's very interesting...show Me."
So the scientist bends down to the earth and starts to mold the soil into the shape of a man.
"No, no, no..." interrupts God, "Make your own dirt."

Accident
There was an engineer, manager and programmer driving down a steep mountain road.
The brakes failed and the car careened down the road out of control.
Half way down the driver managed to stop the car by running it against the embankment narrowing avoiding going over a cliff.
They all got out, shaken by their narrow escape from death, but otherwise unharmed.
The manager said "To fix this problem we need to organize a committee, have meetings, and through a process of continuous improvement, develop a solution."
The engineer said "No that would take too long, and besides that method never worked before. I have my trusty pen knife here and will take apart the brake system, isolate the problem and correct it."
The programmer said "I think you're both wrong! I think we should all push the car back up the hill and see if it happens again."
~~~
What Kind of Tracks
Two boys go out on a walk. One looks down and said, "look at those, those are deer tracks my dad told me about them."
The second boy says no those are elk tracks, my dad told me about them. Then the first boy says, "No those are deer tracks."
The second boy says, "NO those are elk tracks."
One hour later they were run over by a train.

Painting a Porch
Wanting to earn some money, Cletus decided to hire himself out as a handyman-type and started canvassing a wealthy neighborhood. He went to the front door of the first house and asked the owner if he had any jobs. "Well, you can paint my porch. How much will you charge?"
Cletus said, "How about 50 dollars?" The man agreed and told him that the paint and ladders that he might need were in the garage. The man's wife, inside the house, heard the conversation and said to her husband, "Does he realize that the porch goes all the way around the house?"
The man replied, "He should. He was standing on the porch."
A short time later, Cletus came to the door to collect his money. "You're finished already?" the man asked.
"Yes," Cletus answered, "and I had paint left over, so I gave it two coats."
Impressed, the man reached in his pocket for the $50. "And by the way," Cletus added, "that's not a Porch, it's a Ferrari."

Guest: "Why does your dog sit there and watch me eat?"

Biting Nails
Two golden-agers were discussing their husbands over tea.
"I do wish that my Elmer would stop biting his nails. He makes me terribly nervous."
"My Billy used to do the same thing," the older woman replied. "But I broke him of the habit."
"How?"
"I hid his teeth."
~~~
Best Patients
Five surgeons are discussing who makes the best patients on the operating table.
The first surgeon says, "I like to see accountants on my operating table, because when you open them up, everything inside is numbered."
The second responds, "Yeah, but you should try electricians! Everything inside them is color coded."
The third surgeon says, "No, I really think librarians are the best; everything inside them is in alphabetical order."
The fourth surgeon chimes in: "You know, I like construction workers...those guys always understand when you have a few parts left over at the end, and when the job takes longer than you said it would."
But the fifth surgeon shut them all up when he observed: "You're all wrong. Politicians are the easiest to operate on. There's no guts, no heart, and no spine, and the head and butt are interchangeable."
~~~
Driving Test
Two truck driving brothers are taking a driving test, and the instructor asks, "You're driving the truck and you're at the top of a mountain and your brakes go out. You notice an accident at the bottom of the mountain, what do you do?"
The trucker replies, "The first thing I do is wake up my brother."
"What good is that going to do?" the instructor asks.
The trucker replies replies, "In all of the years we've been driving he ain't never seen an accident like the one we're about to get in to."
~~~
Life
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, wine in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming, "Woo hoo! What a ride!"

May you be blessed with abundant good health but failing that may you have only diseases approved by the A.M.A. so you can actually get some help

NATURAL HELP FOR CANDIDIASIS

~VITAMIN B-12
Aids in digestive process. Helps metabolize carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. Lozenge or sublingual form is recommended.
~ACIDOLOPHUS
Combats infection from candida. Nondairy formula is recommended.
~COCONUT OIL-MAJOR SOURCE OF CAPRYLIC ACID Caprylic acid Kills fungus and candida organisms. ~~I'll bet you didn't know That about coconut oil?!!!!
~GARLIC [KYOLIC]
Stops infection.
~QUERCETIN PLUS
Promotes healing. Decreases allergic reactions from food. Lessens inflammation.
~BROMELAIN
Anti-inflamatory, aids in wound healing, and helps joints and muscle pain from exercising.
~VITAMIN B COMPLEX
Help with all body functions. Protect against infection. Good for the enzyme systems. Aids in healthy brain function. Yeast-free formula is recommended. Can get injections under a physician's care.
~CALCIUM
To make up for deficiencies. Calcium citrate form is recommended.
~MAGNESIUMhelps to relax you, aids stress and muscle relaxing, Balances calcium.
~VITAMIN D
Improves absorption of calcium.
~ALOE VERA JUICE
Aloe vera is well recognized for being a safe treatment for a variety of ailments. The ancient Egyptians chose aloe vera to treat wounds from battles and heal infections. Not only can aloe vera be an antiseptic but also be an anti-inflammatory. In addition, the juice from the plant can increase the white blood cells capability to exterminate yeast cells.
~ESSENTIAL FATTY ACIDS~
Many Americans have a diet rich in Omega-6 source foods (fried foods, margarine, whole-grain bread, baked goods, and other saturated fats), and low in Omega-3 source foods like fish. Due to these eating habits, the typical American diet contains as much as 20 times more Omega-6 than Omega-3’s. Reducing your intake of Omega-6-rich foods while you increase your consumption of Omega-3-rich foods will further balance the equation.
~OLIVE LEAF EXTRACT
Used since biblical times, Olive Leaf Extract, just from its symbol, gives you a sense of being protected. It is a powerful way to fend off harmful toxins & expedite healing of infections caused from microbes.
~PAU D'ARCO
Also known as lapacho or taheebo. Has an agent that acts as antibacterial, as well as antifungal. Some people may not actually improve from drinking Pau d'arco tea. If that is the case with you, change over to clove tea. Even if Pau d'arco tea does help, it's wise to switch between Pau d'arco and clove tea, anyway. Clove tea will assist in healing different areas than Pau d'arco; Pau d'arco will also act differently than clove.
~MAITAKE TEA
Maitake Tea makes a good substitute if Pau d'arco proves to contra beneficial for removing toxins. Since different strains of candida grow quickly because of genetic mutation, a variety of teas will provide a wider range of benefits.
~WILD OREGANO OIL
This herb is a very potent antibacterial agent. Wild Oregano has been touted as being a natural antibiotic that might even be stronger than prescription antibiotics. As well as being an effective fighter against E-coli and staphylococcus bacteria, it has been said that the oil can kill fungi, as well.

~CellPower™ That just happens to give each and every cell in our bodies a boost of oxygen and raises the pH level to normal levels AND KILLS BACTERIA, VIRUSES AND FUNGI. YAY!
I also take:

A squad of soldiers was marching north of Fallujah when they came upon an
Iraqi terrorist, badly injured and unconscious. On the opposite side of
the road was an American soldier in a similar but less serious state.

The soldier was conscious and alert and as first aid was given to both
men,
the squad leader asked the injured soldier what had happened. The
soldier
reported, 'I was heavily armed and moving north along the highway here,
and coming south was a heavily armed insurgent.'

We saw each other and both took cover in the ditches along the road. I
yelled to him that Saddam Hussein was a miserable, lowlife scum bag who
got what he deserved, and he yelled back that Ted Kennedy is a fat,
good-for-nothing, left wing liberal drunk who doesn't know how to drive.

So I said that Osama Bin Ladin dresses and acts like a frigid,
mean-spirited lesbian!

He retaliated by yelling, 'Oh yeah? Well, so does Hillary Clinton!

'And, there we were, in the middle of the road, shaking hands, when a
truck hit us.'

SUPERMARKET SURROUND SOUND

The new supermarket near my house has an automatic water mister to keep produce fresh. Just before it goes on, you hear the sound of thunder and the smell of fresh rain.

When you approach the milk cases, you hear cows mooing and witness the scent of fresh hay.

When you approach the egg case, you hear hens cluck and cackle and the air is filled with the pleasing aroma of bacon and eggs frying.

The veggie department features the sound of a gentle breeze and the smell of fresh buttered corn.

I don't buy toilet paper there any more.

Candidiasis/Diabetes/alphabet disease connection

In the blog entry IBS,HEMMORHOIDS, CANDIDIASIS; THE BOWEL CONNECTION we explored the connection between IBS [one of the alphabet diseases I want to talk about today] and candidiasis. Usually if someones candidiasis is cleared up then so does the IBS, so I'd say that's pretty much a given. In the blog entry The Candidasis/Leaky gut/Diabetes connection We discovered that Leaky Gut; a condition brought about by candidiasis run rampant for years creating a bowel with extra huge openings in it allowing for impurities to be released into the bloodstream along with the nutrients. This causes great hardship to the Liver whose job is to filter bad stuff. It can no longer do it's job so it allows the body to become overrun by these impurities, and sickness occurs.

Let's go back to some of the symptoms of second and third stage candidiasis: Second stage:PAIN, HEADACHES (including Migraine), EXTREME FATIGUE, PSORIASIS, INFECTIONS OF THE NAILS, MUSCLE ACHES, JOINT PAINS, AND ARTHRITIS, Third stage:HOPELESS CRYING" SPELLS, SEVERE DEPRESSION, SLEEP DISORDERS (may include insomnia, confusion dreams, nightmares, apnea, and not feeling rested or restored after sleep), IRRATIONAL THOUGHTS, UNUSUAL FEARS, PHOBIAS, PANIC/ANXIETY ATTACKS, MUSCLE TWITCHING, IRRITABILITY, VIOLENCE, AGGRESSIVE BEHAVIOR, and even EPILEPTIC SEIZURES and THOUGHTS OF DEATH OR SUICIDE.

Now I ask you do any of these sound like any of the Alphabet diseases? Fibromyalgia Syndrome[FMS], Chronic Fatigue Syndrome[CFS], and Multiple Chemical Sensitivities [MCS], Irritable Bowel syndrome[IBS] -I'd be irritable too if that much poison was running through me.

I have many friends with one or more of the alphabet diseases, one of them said this:
"Dr. William Crook wrote his books in the 1980's, and when I was at the CFIDS clinic in the 1991 they were just starting to look at Candida as a major co-factor. I have read when people get rid of Candida their IBS and MCS clear up. If you think of a bunch of yeast living in your gut releasing mycotoxins, no wonder your liver is clogged up and you have IBS, MCS, etc which lead to FM, CFS.
Also, most of us had vats of antibiotics growing up and some type of birth control pill plus Wonder Bread and sugar.
It's a Wonder we are even alive....."


I remember reading about Candidiasis way back in the 1970's when it was disease-of-the-week, I thought back to when I was 5 and Penicillin was still pretty new, we were under socialized Medicine, as an Army dependant living in Germany and I had a bad case of tonsillitis. The doctor reasoned that if a little penicillin was good then a lot had to be better, so I was given a lot. I remember overhearing this while my doctor was talking to my parents. Then I was raised on boxed Mac n' Cheese, Fritoes and Coca Cola. All the elements [overuse of antibiotics, poor food choices] were in place for a lifetime of overgrown Candida Albacans. Then when I took birth control pills at age 20 That was it, I had a massive stroke and started on the downward slope, the Chemical sensitivities manifested in a total inability to take any medications that didn't result in severe side effects..

I was extremely iron deficient as a child, I was also severely constipated not only from high doses of Iron supplements but also the flourishing fungus amungus.

When I was in my early-forties I was attacked by a young man who was drugged, He rearranged my spine just enough for my neck to be out-of-place permanently. Not much later I began to have small pools of pain sprouting in several areas of my back.

I know the injury was the 'cause' of the Fibromyalgia, but I doubt if the injury would have been enough to cause it without the mediating influence of the Candida flora.

Now I can't prove there is a connection, but if you see any of your symptoms to your alphabet diseases in the above list It wouldn't hurt to stop feeding the Candida. Candida thrives on sugar and Yeasts.

I read recently that we crave the very foods that are the worst for us, that we are allergic to or are just injurious. For me it's chocolate anything surgery, and breads.

Think about it, if this is you, or maybe it's just in the ballpark of your symptoms, what can it hurt to do an eliminating diet? Try cutting out all sugars, all wheat and yeast foods.

I also use
for the overgrowth and it really helps to jump start the elimination,
and CellPower™ which is a fungus killer.
and for maintenance I also use:
FLAX SEED OIL for my colon, but of course FLAX SEED OIL is also a great source of omega-3 essential fatty acids.
And one each of the four essential minerals each day:
~SELENIUMhelps immune system,fights infection and aids circulation
~MAGNESIUMhelps to relax you, aids stress and muscle relaxing
~CHROMIUMimproves insulin sensitivity, and helps lower blood sugar.
~ZINC every day.

memory loss due to high blood sugar
We all have times when our blood sugar jumps up. A meal with lots of refined carbs and a dessert can do it to the healthiest eaters. But chronically high blood sugar is extremely dangerous. Not only can it lead to diabetes; it can also cause you to lose your memory.
A recent four-year study of older women found that when their blood sugar was chronically high - even if they weren't diabetic - they had an increased risk for impaired memory. This could be due to either direct or indirect brain damage caused by high blood sugar. Or it could mean that there's an association between the enzyme that breaks down insulin and the development of Alzheimer's disease. There are a number of possibilities, all of which researchers are studying rigorously.

After all, our elected public officials keep assuring us that chlorinated city tap water is completely safe for human consumption. Numerous scientific studies report that chlorinated tap water is a skin irritant and can be associated with rashes like eczema. Chlorinated water can destroy polyunsaturated fatty acids and vitamin E in the body while generating toxins capable of free radical damage (oxidation). This might explain why supplementation of the diet with essential fatty acids like flax seed oil, evening primrose oil, borage oil and antioxidants like vitamin E, selenium and others helps so many cases of eczema and dry skin.

Little Things


As you might know, the head of a company survived 9/11 because his son started kindergarten.

Another fellow was alive because it was His turn to bring donuts.

One woman was late because her Alarm clock didn't go off in time.

One was late because of being stuck on the NJ Turnpike
Because of an auto accident.

One of them Missed his bus.

One spilled food on her clothes and had to take Time to change.

One's Car wouldn't start.

One went back to Answer the telephone.

One had a Child that dawdled And didn't get ready as soon as he should have.

One couldn't Get a taxi.

The one that struck me was the man
Who put on a new pair of shoes that morning,
Took the various means to get to work
But before he got there, he developed
a blister on his foot.

He stopped at a drugstore to buy a Band-Aid. That is why he is alive today.


Now when I am
Stuck in traffic,
Miss an elevator,
Turn back to answer a ringing telephone ...
All the little things that annoy me.
I think to myself,
This is exactly where God wants me to be
At this very moment..

Next time your morning seems to be
Going wrong ,

The children are slow getting dressed, You can't seem to find the car keys,
You hit every traffic light, Don't get mad or frustrated;
It may be just that God is at work watching over you.

This is the true story of George Phillips of Meridian, Mississippi, who was going to bed when his wife told him that he'd left the light on in the shed. George opened the door to go turn off the light but saw there were people in the shed in the process of stealing things.

He immediately phoned the police, who asked "Is someone in your house?" and George said no and explained the situation. Then they explained that all patrols were busy, and that he should simply lock his door and an officer would be there when available.

George said, "Okay," hung up, counted to 30, and phoned the police again.

"Hello, I just called you a few seconds ago because there were people in my shed. Well, you don't have to worry about them now because I've just shot them all."

Then he hung up. Within five minutes three squad cars, an Armed Response unit, and an ambulance showed up. Of course, the police caught the burglars red-handed.

One of the policemen said to George: "I thought you said that you'd shot them!"

George said, "I thought you said there was nobody available!"

Deep within a forest a little turtle began to climb a tree. After hours of effort he reached the top, jumped into the air waving his front legs and crashed to the ground. After recovering, he slowly climbed the tree again, jumped, and fell to the ground. The turtle tried again and again while a couple of birds sitting on a branch watched his sad efforts. Finally, the female bird turned to her mate. "Dear," she chirped, "I think it's time to tell him he's adopted."

A cab driver picks up a nun. She gets into the cab, and the cab driver won't stop staring at her.

She asks him why he is staring.

He replies: "I have a question to ask you, but I don't want to offend you".

She answers, "My son, you cannot offend me. When you're as old as I am and have been a nun as long as I have, you get a chance to see and hear just about everything. I'm sure that there's nothing you could say or ask that I would find offensive."

"Well, I've always had a fantasy to have a nun kiss me."
She responds, "Well, let's see what we can do about that. But first, you have to be single and you must be Catholic."
The cab driver is very excited and says, "Yes, I'm single and Catholic!"

"OK" the nun says. "Pull off to the side of the road, "maybe we will see what we can do."

The nun plants a whopper of a kiss on the cabbie! But when they get back on the road, the cab driver starts crying.

"My dear child," said the nun, why are you crying?"
"Forgive me, but I've sinned. I lied. I must confess, I'm married and I'm Jewish."

The nun says, "That's OK, my name is Kevin and I'm going to a Halloween party."

A daring vacationer in Vienna is walking through a graveyard on Halloween when all of a sudden she hears music. No one is around, so she starts looking to see where it’s coming from.

She finally locates the source and finds it is coming from a grave with a headstone that reads, “Ludwig van Beethoven.”

Then she realizes that the music is the Ninth Symphony and it is being played backward. Puzzled, she leaves the graveyard and persuades a friend to return with her.

By the time they arrive back at the grave, the music has changed. This time it is the Seventh Symphony, but it is also being played backward.

Curious, the ladies agree to consult a music scholar. When they return with the expert, the Fifth Symphony is playing and the expert concludes that the symphonies are in fact being played in reverse order.

By the next day the word spread and a huge group gathered around the grave to hear the Second Symphony being played backward. Just then the graveyard's caretaker approaches the group. Someone in the crowd asks him if he has an explanation for the music.

"Oh, it's nothing to to worry about" says the caretaker. "He's just decomposing!!"
