WELL FOLKS, IT’S COMING TO AN END…..DEFINITELY AN INTERESTING, INFORMATIVE AND HOPEFULLY A SUCCESSFUL TRIP………..WORD IS THAT IT MAY TAKE 3 TO 6 MONTHS TO HAVE OR SEE A NOTICEABLE DIFFERENCE. IT IS WHAT IT IS! THE LORD KNOWS THAT I LOVE TO GAMBLE AND HAVE BEEN ALL MY LIFE……..WELL, HERE IS JUST ANOTHER GAMBLE, BUT THIS ONE I AM PLAYING BY ALL OF THEIR RULES HOPING I CAN W–I–N–. I FEEL SLIGHT DIFFERENCES ON CERTAIN DAYS DEPENDING ON MY TREATMENT……..SOME BETTER THAN OTHERS……….REASON IS BECAUSE DIFFERENT PARTS OF MY BODY ARE BEING “PLAYED WITH”…….UNDERSTANDABLE………THEY WANT ME TO GO HOME, ACT NORMAL, DON’T WORRY ABOUT ACUPUNCTURE AND SPEND TIME IN MY POOL WALKING AND EXERCISING……….DON’T OVERDO, LET THE STEM CELLS DO THEIR JOB……..I AM BUYING AN ELECTRONIC CONTRAPTION TO WRAP AROUND MY HANDS AND WRIST THAT YOU PUT “CHINESE MEDICINE” INTO AND THE HEAT DOES SOMETHING TO HELP YOUR BLOOD FLOW AND YOUR NERVE ENDINGS…..WE WILL BUY IT AND GIVE IT A SHOT….WHO KNOWS? I WANT EVERYONE TO KNOW THAT THIS PART OF CHINA IS NOT PARADISE……LANGUAGE BARRIER IS DEPLORABLE, CLEANLINESS IS NOT WHAT MOST OF US ARE USED TO, THE HOSPITAL IS NOT WHAT YOU SEE IN THE U.S., BUT…….THE DOCTORS ARE WONDERFUL, THE NURSING STAFF ARE SO ATTENTIVE IT IS UNREAL AND WHEN YOU SEE THE PATIENTS HERE THAT RANGE IN AGE FROM 18MONTHS (WHICH WILL BREAK ANYONES HEART, TO MY AGE CATEGORY YOU CAN SEE WITH YOUR OWN EYES THE WONDERS AND MIRACLES THAT ARE CREATED HERE……..I AM A LITTLE MIFFED AT MY COUNTRY, THE U.S.A., BEING SO STUBBORN WITH STEM CELL WORK AND BELIEVING THE STEM CELLS SHOULD ONLY BE DONE WHEN CHEMOTHERAPY IS ADMINISTERED F-I-R-S-T AND BRING YOUR IMMUNE SYSTEM DOWN SO YOUR BODY STARTS ANEW……I AM NOT A DOCTOR AND IF ANY DOCTOR IS READING THIS BLOG I WOULD LOVE AN EXPLANATION THAT A LAYMAN CAN UNDERSTAND…….CHINA DOES NOT USE CHEMOTHERAPY AND THEY ARE DOING WONDERS…..WHAT AM I MISSING? IMAGINE IF THE U.S. WOULD “LEARN” THE CHINESE TECHNOLOGY, ELECTRIC WAVE TREATMENT EVERY DAY, ACUPUNCTURE EVERY DAY (NOT LIKE YOU KNOW IN THE U.S.), 1 NEEDLE BY MY RIGHT EYE, 1 NEEDLE BY MY LEFT EYE, 1 NEEDLE ABOVE MY NOSE BETWEEN MY EYES, 1 NEEDLE IN THE TOP OF MY HEAD, 4 NEEDLES IN EACH ARM A 1 NEEDLE BETWEEN MY THUMB AND FOREFINGER, 4 NEEDLES IN EACH LEG AND 1 NEEDLE BETWEEN BIG AND SECOND TOE………AND THEN IF YOU GO FOR THE FULL STEM CELL TREATMENT, YOU WILL RECEIVE 4 IV STEM CELLS, 3 LUMBAR B(SPINAL) STEM CELLS AND 1 BONE MARROW TRANSPLANT WHERE THEY REMOVE YOUR BONE MARROW, CLEAN IT, PROCESS IT, PUT IN STEM CELLS AND RETURN IT TO YOUR BODY WITHIN 10 DAYS………I PLANNED ON THE FULL TREATMENT BUT WHEN I GOT HERE THEIR BLOOD TEST SHOWED THAT AT SOME TIME IN MY LIFE I WAS EXPOSED TO HEPATITIS B…..THIS MEANS THE WILL NOT DO THE BONE MARROW TRANSPLANT FOR FEAR OF AGGRAVATING THE HEPATITIS THAT COULD HAVE BEEN IN YOUR BODY FOR 50 YEARS….MY LIVER ENZYMES WERE NEVER RAISED TO A HEIGHT FOR ME TO BE CHECKED FOR HEPATITIS. I SUGGEST IF YOU CHOOSE TO COME HERE, BE CHECKED FOR HEPATITIS SEPARATELY……DON’T GIVE UP…………THE YOUNGER THE CHILD, THE BETTER THE CHANCE OF ATTACKING THE ILLNESS………..YET, ASK THE GENTLEMAN WHO MS FOR 30 YEARS AND CAME HER AND IS FEELING BETTER AND HOPEFULLY I WILL HAVE A SUCCESSFUL STORY FOR YOU LATER ALSO…….HOPE THIS HELPS YOU TO SOME DEGREE………….AND MAKE SURE IF YOU ARE MARRIED TO BRING YOUR SPOUSE ALONG…….WITHOUT MY WIFE MARILYN, I DON’T THINK I COULD HAVE DONE THIS. ALSO THE SUPPORTOF MY CHILDREN AND GRANDCHILDREN WERE A GREAT HELP FOR BOTH OF US…….IF YOU ARE NOT MARRIED, BBRING A LOVED ONE OR CARETAKER.

MADE IT THRU ANOTHER DAY…………BODY IS DEFINITELY WAKING UP………..ACUPUNCTURE IS HURTING MORE BECAUSE THESE ORIENTAL DOCTORS KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING……….THEY PLACE THE NEEDLES WHERE THE MUST BE PLACED……THEY INSERT THEM AT DIFFERENT DEPTHS ACCORDING TO YOUR CONDITION…….THEY THEN TWIST THEM TO HAVE YOUR NERVES AND MUSCLES REACT. IT IS AMAZING WHAT THEY KNOW…….I GUESS 3000 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE GIVES THEM THE UPPER HAND. WHO AM I TO QUESTION WHAT IS GOING ON? REMEMBER, NO PAIN NO GAIN………..TOMORROW AT 2:20 IS MY 4TH AND FINAL LUMBAR (SPINAL) STEM CELL………THEN MONDAY AND WEDNESDAY MY 7TH AND 8TH IV STEM CELL TREATMENTS….THIS THE MAX THAT THEY GIVE YOU AND THEN YOU GO HOME AND WAIT 75 TO 90 DAYS TO FEEL RESULTS………….I CASN FEEL CERTAIN THINGS HAPPENING ALREADY………BALANCE AND MOVEMENT FOR SURE……..MY WIFE SEEMS TO BE OVER THE BUG SHE RECEIVED HERE……….THE DOCTORS GAVE HER CHINESE MEDICATION…………WILL LET YOU KNOW MORE RESULTS AFTER TOMORROWS SPINAL…………

WE FINALLY GOT TO GO OUT. WE WENT TO THE NEW CENTURY HOTEL (5*). IT WAS BEAUTIFUL, BUT………………WE DEFINITELY HAD A LANGUAGE BARRIER. IT WAS QUITE SHOCKING AS WE THOUGHT SINCE IT WAS A 5* HOTEL THEY WOULD HAVE “SOMEONE” WHO SPOKE FLUENT ENGLISH, NOT……………………………….WE ALSO WENT TO A FAMOUS PAGODA THAT IS 4 STORIES TALL. YOU COULD GO UP BY ESCALATOR BUT ONLY DOWN BY STAIRS. TO RISKY, SO WE TOOK A PASS……..NEXT WEEKEND WE MAY TRY THE GRAND HYATT HOTEL IF ALL GOES WELL WITH THE WEEKLY TREATMENTS. NOT FEELING ANY DIFFERENT YET, BUT THEY SAY THIS COULD TAKE MONTHS TO DEVELOPE, SO I WLL FOLLOW THE PROCESS…HOPE I HAVE SOME MORE EXCITING NEWS FOR YOU LATER……….

TODAY WAS MY 1ST IV STEM CELL. THAT MAKES 3 STEM CELL TREATMENTS IN TOTAL. 2 LUMBAR (SPINAL) AND 1 IV…..DO I FEEL ANY CHANGE, THE ANSWER IS NO……ASKED THE DOCTOR TODAY AND HE GAVE ME AN ANSWER THAT I UNDERSTOOD. HE SAID “DON’T EXPECT AN ILLNESS THAT YOU HAVE HAD FOR OVER 10 YEARS TO CHANGE AFTER 2 WEEKS OF TREATMENT”. OUR TREATMENT IS A “PROCESS”. IT TAKES A WHILE. MAKES SENSE TO ME SO I WILL FOLLOW THE TREATMENT AS THEY LAY IT OUT. I WILL NOT EXPECT MIRACLES AND I WILL HOPE FOR THE BEST….I AM SEEING MIRACLES HERE. BLIND CHILDREN REGAINING SIGHT….ALS PATIENTS, FEELING BETTER. MS PATIENTS DOING BETTER, ETC……….MY SLEEPING IS NOT BETTER BUT I AM KEEPING AN OPEN MIND AND HOPEFULLY IT WILL ALL COME TOGETHER…….I WILL KEEP ALL INFORMED AS THE WEEKS GO FORWARD……….
STAY WELL

LAST NIGHT THE ROMANIANS ON OUR FLOOR THREW A “GET TOGETHER PARTY” FOR ALL THE PATIENTS ON OUR FLOOR AND THED DR”S AND NURSES…..THEY COOKED THEIR OWN FOOD AND IT WAS VERY NICE SEEING EVERYONE AND LEARNING ALL OF THEIR ILLNESSES….IT WAS SAD BUT INFORMATIVE…..IT SORT OF GINVES YOU A LITTLE PERSPECTIVE ASS TO WHERE YOU ARE WITH YOUR OWN ILLNESS AND LIFE ITSELF……..OUT OF THE 13 ROOMS, WE ARE THE ONLY AMERICANS……AUSTRAILIA, ROMANIA, CANADA, UK, IRELAND AND SOME ARE HERE FOR A SECOND TRIP….NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS HERE, NO MATTER WHAT THED RESULTS MAY BE IN INDIVIDUAL CASES, AMERICA SHOULD BE LOOKING INTO THIS TREATMENT “THE CHINESE WAY” NOT WITH ALL OF THE RELIGIOUS ASPECTS, (SINCE THEY ONLY USE UMBILICAL STEM CELLS, NOT EMBRYONIC)” AND GIVE IN TO THE FACT THAT THIS COUNTRY IS AHEAD OF US IN THIS TECHNOLOGY…….IF I DO GET BETTER AFTER MY TREATMENT, I WILL DEFINITELY MAKE SOME NOISE VIA, NEWSPAPER, RADIO, T.V. OR ANY OTHER VENUE THAT WILL LISTEN AS TO WHY AMERICANS ARE SO FAR BEHIND. DON;T KNOW IF THIS WILL WORK FOR MY PARTICULAR CONDITION (HAVING THIS FOR OVER 10 YEARS}, BUT, THE LORD KNOWS MARILYN AND MYSELF ARE GIVING IT OUR BEST SHOT….FRIDAY WILL BE A REGULAR IV STEM CELL AND I CAN’T WAIT TO SEE IF I FEEL ANY RESULTS TO MY EXTREMITIES AS THE 2 LUMBAR STEM CELLS TAKE A WHILE TO DEVELOPE AS THESE TRAVEL THROUGH YOUR BRAIN. MOST OF YOU THAT KNOW ME KNOW THAT GOING THROUGH MY BRAIN COULD TAKED A WHILE!!!!!!! NOW, IF THE STEM CELLS TRAVELED THROUGH THE STOMACH, I WOULD HAVE A CHANCE OF BEING CURED RAPIDLY ESPECIALLY IF THEY COULD BE INFUSED WITH A HO HO, DING DONG OR HOSTESS CUPCAKE….GETTING READY FOR MY ELECTRONIC WAVE TREATMENT AND ACUPUNCTURE….
LOVE YA ALL
