I’m sorry for your sufferings. I, too, have two auto-immune conditions and a few years back I decided to put my trust in holistic type healing. Have you tried acupuncture (through someone who was brought up in Eastern medicine)? My doc is a chiropractor as well, and while I still have the conditions (although their punch has lessened), it is the stress with dealing with poor health that has been helped immensely. It took me two years to see an acupuncturist after it was recommended to me, and I’m sure sorry I waited so long. Maybe this type of medicine would help you too! Never give up. Keep looking for answers.

Agreed. She is one of those special artists whose politics I can look past.

And the word "genius" is really thrown around too much, but she is one of the most fascinating, creative musicians I have ever heard.

Are there clinical trials available for this? This diesase should be brought more to the forefront-some foundation,or special fund that can be established to fund research and development of a vaccine or something to fight it. Maybe some type of genetic research.....

It's scary,what's out there ready to strike. I'd never heard of moyomoya disease until my sister was diagnosed with it it and died from it. It's very rare and mostly,but not completely,confined to the asian population.For my sister to have gotten it remains a mystery.

Have you tried taking a daily sauna? That might sweat out any toxins that could be causing the disease. Plus the heat creates an artificial fever that would help kill any germs causing the disease.

I’m so sorry to hear what you’ve been going through. This is the first I’ve heard of this horrible disease. I’ll say a prayer for you. And for Ms. Mitchell.

After the war she tried to get Jane Fonda to do a function to help the Vietnamese people against the communist government, Jane refused, to me that meant that Joni was anti war and Jane was anti American, we all can recognize a big difference there.

Just before our love got lost
you said,” I am as constant as the Northern Star.”
And I said, “Constantly in the darkness?
Where’s that at?
If you need me, I’ll be in the bar.”

From “A Case of You”

Joni’s Blue album was part of the soundtrack for my misspent ‘yout’.
Sad to hear of this. Wish her the best.

I pray you (and her) find relief. May God continue to give you what ever strength you need to carry on. Sounds like you have been a very strong person over these passed 3 plus years. Keep up the good fight, you have done well.

Scythian, I'm stunned and so sorry to read about you having Morgellons.

I visit Jeff Rense and he makes me angry most of the time...however...he does have a keen interest in Morgellons and keeps current with the news, etc. I hope you have visted Rense.com for that alone.

Bless you and your dear family Scythian. You know we care about you..

The CDC has a study going on regarding Morgellons, although many are very skeptical of the study with only 330k allocated to it. There are many ideas of what truly is the cause of Morgellons, one of those theories is GMO Pharming that involves using genes from all kinds of creatures including jellyfish, bacteria like Bt, and AgroBacterium and splicing them into our corn, soybeans, and more and more crops by the day so that they become their own pesticides. Is Morgellons in our food supply? I don’t know the cause, I only know the horror. We do hope the CDC study is a serious attempt to find the cause.

Bravo!

Too many knuckleheads who left politics and people’s persuasion control every aspect and opinion of their lives.

Such empty lives.
