Guest guest Posted January 7, 2011 Report Share Posted January 7, 2011 Very sad about her loss of sight in one eye due to the radiation burns on her optical nerves from the treatment she didn't need. From: Jack Thrasher, Ph.D. <toxicologist1@...> Subject: Re: [] Re: ShoeMaker is on TV tonight Date: Friday, January 7, 2011, 6:57 AM I can. She had aspergillosis of the sphenoid sinus. She was tested by Dr. Hooper for the fungus and mycotoxins and treated by Dr. Gray with antifungals. Her husband, a microbiologist identified the mass as having fungal elements. After a long course of treatment the aspergilloma did shrink and was no longer identifiable in CAT scans and MRIs. I have seen read all of the medical records.

Guest guest Posted January 7, 2011 Report Share Posted January 7, 2011 If pathology was done on the lesion Dr. Hooper can test the pathology specimens for molds and mycotoxins. He has done this on several different occasions and published his results. [] Re: ShoeMaker is on TV tonight thanks Sharon, my uncle was diagnosed with cancer in the brain, a mass, not sure exactly where, mom said she thought they had said the spinal cord area, whats bothering me is that when they attempted to remove it they couldn't get it all because,basicly, it had roots that went into the brain. he has been through chemo, twice, say's he wont do it again so is basicly waiting for it to kill him. when my mom first told me, hearing that it had rooted into his brain made me wonder exactly what it is and how they concluded it was cancer. I'm trying to get them to consider to see doctor Gray and get a second apinion. not a easy thing to do. hardest is to get them to understand the conflicts of interest and why a fungal sorce is not always looked at. they did a biopsy, but what they tested for and how they desided it was cancer , I'm not sure. he doesn't live close so I get second hand info. my mom is pretty smart, but getting up there in age and my family is like most, trust in doctors knowing they are supposed to be truthful honest and all knowing. I tried to explain to her the pharma ties in medical science and that sence the chemo isnt working that it should be worth a second opinion. to me it seems that haveing something rooted into the brain could be fungal.

Guest guest Posted January 7, 2011 Report Share Posted January 7, 2011 Very sad indeed.  Very upsetting too was the fact that when they got a biopsy specimen they still failed to identify the fungus. They had 25 % in thier hands and still could not tell a tumor from a fungal mass.    God Bless !! dragonflymcs Mayleen ________________________________ From: a Townsend <kmtown2003@...> Sent: Fri, January 7, 2011 11:37:09 AM Subject: Re: [] Re: ShoeMaker is on TV tonight  Very sad about her loss of sight in one eye due to the radiation burns on her optical nerves from the treatment she didn't need.
