Technology

We live in truly remarkable times. Nearly every day, there is something new technologically which makes life easier and often better. Smart phone technology is racing forward providing miraculous power in the palm of your hand. The full power of the internet is now available 24/7 in almost all locations. Medical "apps" are providing instant access to "libraries" of knowledge and insight. Soon (actually already available), you can have an EKG and echocardiogram of your heart through a smart phone on command. The XBOX 360 Kinect program is making home exercise, yoga, Tai Chi available at all times with ongoing interactive, helpful feedback built in and remarkably effective.

There is truly nothing that seems impossible. The race is on to bring all of this miraculous technology to an ever-growing market. This technology costs but will be available globally and universally for remarkably reasonable investment. Connection between people is now unlimited by time and space. The ability for people to develop, maintain and enhance ongoing relationships has been advanced infinitely with social networking, texting, etc. The world seems to have no limits.

However, the ongoing miracle of technology does have some ceiling. Despite, the seeming infinite power and capacities now available and soon to be available, life is still life and has inherent boundaries. We all still age and get old. We all still need emotional connection (not just access to dialogue). We all have "the human monkey mind" to wrestle with. Humans still are more than willing to go to war with others who see things differently. Knowledge and technology are powerful vehicles but life is more. Life is still lived from the heart and humans need some things that technology can never provide nor enhance.

Technology makes for a dramatic and totally-engrossing life but in the end, life is still about love and the heart and the spirit. An "app" for enhancing consciousness, peace, awareness and true connection is the true work of the day. Now, that would be an invention.

Took my face book page down today; the beginning of taking myself out of the techno trap. I find myself almost addicted to the adrenaline of all the stuff going on in other peoples lives...it's time I get back to living my life...even if it is by comparison to all my FB friends....Boring...I like boring!!

IT'S HAPPENING

Wow, the information available on CCSVI on the internet is truly amazing! I have to admit: I did not research this topic as well as I could have. I did not read the study from Poland before my procedure. I did not realize all the excitement combined with incredible knowledge that is coming out of Georgetown. I am just reading them now and I can hardly contain myself. There is so much data available on CCSVI from around the world. I acted more on a deep gut feeling that CCSVI was real and was my path to healing. I was a little desperate as I felt myself sliding over the last year and didn't feel right with the auto-immune drugs. CCSVI just made sense to me; really good sense. Now reading the data, I am so excited for huge numbers of people to get healed/opened/freed! After doing a little research, it seems that nearly all people with definite MS have CCSVI. It also seems that people with MS who have the procedure have less flairs over time and a better quality of life. Some get a lo...

$$$

By
I received my bills this week. $ 32,000 for the Liberation Procedure. $1200 for MRV. Amazingly, my insurance(Blue Cross) covered all but $5000 of the total. I feel so fortunate that it was largely covered. I have sat on Utilization Review Committees(when I worked at Scripps) and thought the insurance company would deny coverage based on the experimental nature of the procedure. Luckily for me, I was wrong! I guess they just cannot deny need for treatment of blocked blood vessels.

Liberation

By
It is now 3 days after "Liberation Day". Sunday afternoon 12:30 pm. February 28th, 2010. Three days ago, Dr. Mohsin Saeed at Scripps Clinic opened my left jugular vein with angioplasty and my right jugular vein with angioplasty followed by a stent. The procedure is called by its inventor, Dr. Paolo Zamboni, The Liberation Procedure. It is a revolutionary treatment for an old, disabling disease -- Multiple Sclerosis. Until about 3 months ago, the only theory I knew about MS was that it was an autoimmune disease which attacked and destroyed myelin, the external coating around nerves. For unknown reasons, nerve conduction was slowed while plaques formed in the brain. It was always unclear why or when attacks would happen but they did and were difficult to control. Modern medicine responded with anti-inflammatory drugs and immune suppressants following the line of reasoning that if the disease was caused by an immune response, then stopping the immune response would stop the dise...
