Christian Wilde, author of Miracle Stem Cell Heart Repair, called me today on the phone. I first heard him a couple of years ago on the radio talking about adult stem cells curing over 70 diseases and what it could do specifically for patients who have suffered heart attacks, etc. Anyway, I was so fascinated by his interview (little did I know I would become intimately involved with adult stem cells!) that I bought both of his books and read them cover to cover. When Dave made medical history at Little Rock with his Hyperbaric Oxygen treatments and subsequent stem cell collection, I sent Mr. Wilde an email telling him what occurred. He immediately responded and validated our results with his own research and validated my proactive activity to help Dave overcome his disease. Today he called for a couple of reasons. First he wanted to know how Dave was doing now. He also wanted to send to me the latest research on Tumeric (curcumin) by Dr. Bharat Aggarwal from MD Anderson (in the USA). It was such a timely phone call... There has been much written recently about MM patients taking this to suppress their disease and the research regarding this "spice" in treating cancers. I was looking into it a lot recently on and off trying to decipher if we should include it in Dave's treatment as a complimentary therapy. There are obvious considerations when doing this since they have found Green Tea inhibits Velcade (a common chemo drug for MM). He and I talked about this point and so the research papers he would be sending me will be very helpful on that when I speak to Dave's doctor in the fall when we are there. I will feel armed with some data. Anyway, the timing was amazing. He also is working on doing another show with Dr. Aggarwal on Coast to Coast AM and I will look forward to catching it. He also asked if he could refer a friend recently diagnosed with MM in the hopes I could offer him some guidance and information on his disease. If you don't know about Christian Wilde, he was once a songwriter for some very famous musical groups in the 50's and 60's. He became interested in this subject quite by accident and has embarked on an all consuming quest to put into layman's terms, new innovative medical treatments for all sorts of deadly diseases and conditions. His work is always backed up by the latest medical research and doctors are very willing to allow him to interview them. He is a GEM! Ok, so now I have to get back to my mundane day of laundry and sweeping the floor! hahaha Here is the powerpoint slide discussing his findings... it has broader reaches than Multiple Myeloma so I urge you to take a look and investigate further... As always, you should discuss with your doctor, but at least you will have something you can present to them for further inquiry. http://myeloma.org/pdfs/turmeric.pdf Lori
