Most of you folks reading are mere “kids” when it comes to the history of chronic fatigue syndrome. Many “experts” writing today and selling their “knowledge” have only been on the block a few years and have no idea what a struggle we pioneers had to establish that there even was such a condition. It started being reported in the late 60s and then more so in the 1970s. We called it “tension-fatigue” syndrome back then, since that’s what we were seeing in the patient. By the early 80s, we leaders had noticed that it often followed a viral disease and started using the term “post-viral fatigue syndrome”. Coxsackie B virus (“Bornholm disease”) was a chief suspect in the early 80s; it can cause shattering fatigue and all over aches and pains. But I worked with the local hospital and lab and had a series of blood samples from my patients tested for coxsackie and nothing significant came up. It was never published because the chief pathologist and I were convinced it was a waste of time.

You need to keep your body filters cleared of dirt! Do you ever stop to think, when taking a pee, where that golden liquid comes from and how precious it is to you? Kidney cancers are significantly on the rise. In fact up by 50% in the years between 1991 and 2006. Not surprisingly, since most cancers are caused by xenobiotics and our kidneys have to filter more and more hostile chemical junk to protect us. It’s not just a boomer thing: the cancer increase is across all age groups, as you would expect if environmental toxins were to blame. In fact more younger people are getting diagnosed now than ever before (up from 45.9% in 1991 to 55.3% in 2006. It has been suggested that some of the rise comes from an increased rate of detection, due to CT scans. Today practically everyone who comes into ER with a complaint such as a belly ache is given a CT scan. Small kidney cancers that might have gone unnoticed are thus being detected. But that can’t explain the trend entirely, because the rise in cases began before the use of CT scans became prevalent. It’s a genuine trend.

Cancer Tourism This is a joke from one of my correspondents, Carmi Hazen (aka. Mike). It applies more to US citizens, who have little chance of a cure or therapy here, due to restrictive practises. They are driven to go overseas. But Mike also sent me a video he supposed I would like. Actually, I didn’t. It was one of those phoney con-job videos, claiming that Gerson therapy was THE cure for cancer. There was mushy background music, supposed to transport you to paradise, while they pumped you full of propaganda, which you then accepted without question. What followed was a slightly unseemly correspondence. Mike thought I was just ignorant and lacking medical insight. I thought he was gullible and lacked any kind of scientific objectivity. What annoys me is that the failures of a method are never mentioned in these propaganda type movies. It’s the same with the Hulda Clark cult: you’d think she helped everyone who ever went to her clinic! No mention of the deaths and failures, or the people who walked out, due to disgusting unsanitary conditions. I can state categorically she has harmed more than helped, just by virtue of the stupid false science she promoted (cancer is not caused by just one chemical nor a parasite that isn’t even found in the Western world — except by her, of course, she finds it on everyone!) Yet all you ever hear about are her successes, “proving” she was right. Do NOT write and tell me that it worked for you. I’m glad. But that’s not science. Remember I told you in my writings before: if you just do NOTHING, some people will get rid of their cancer. You have to do better than average, placebo or just natural recovery. Dozens, hundreds or even thousands of recoveries do not prove you have any degree of success, if you don’t break through the average figures].

Locked-in Syndrome Many of you will remember my earlier pieces on “locked-in syndrome”, a condition caused by brain stem injury in which patients are fully conscious but can’t move or communicate, except through eye movements or blinking. One of the most celebrated cases was Elle magazine’s fashion chief Jean-Dominic Bauby. He suffered a catastrophic stroke (which I suspect was due to a cocaine habit). As a result he could communicate with the world only by blinking. He dictated an entire book by having someone recite the alphabet and then blinking when they said the letter he wanted next. What determination! Bauby’s book was called “The Diving Bell and The Butterfly”. It signifies the feeling of being sealed in a heavy metal diving bell at the bottom of the ocean, while having a soul that is restless and wanting to fly away, like a butterfly. It was eventually made into a movie (moving in this sense could also mean very heart-rending). All this I wrote about in Letter From Serendipity 57. It’s now transferred here to the new alternative-doctor.com blog: Jean-Do Bauby Story Now a new study published in the British Medical Journal [BMJ Open, news release, Feb. 23, 2011] has shown that surprisingly many locked-in patients are kind of happy. Only 7% said they wanted to die (euthanasia).

Those of you who have bought and read my book “Virtual Medicine” will know that I talked about DNA being the perfect shape for a transmitter. I believe it “broadcasts” the shape of the organism it is patterning. The story about replicating genetic material biochemically, copying strips of DNA into RNA,  is utter nonsense, even though “scientists” still go on teaching this garbage. It all ended abruptly with the discovery of a phenomenon called RNA interference (RNAi). Basically, it was found that you could insert RNA into a cell and it would cancel (neutralize or interfere with) the DNA. In other words, RNA was senior to DNA! Well, the story just moved forwards and provided me with another awesome “I Told ‘Em!” (events I predicted years or decades before others spotted it).

One of the great pleasures of travelling is a chance to meet people. Last summer I was lecturing in Oxford (UK) and one of my subscribers turned up to my talk who intrigued me with a range of products she has produced. Marian Bourne is a nutritional therapist, kinesiologist and cranio-sacral practitioner and she has created a range of skin cosmetics called Celgenics. So what? Celgenics is very special, that’s what. Apart from being eco-aware and avoiding all the usual poisons in cosmetics (notably parabens and sodium laurel sulfate), it is empowered with energetic medicine.
