Re: Bacon and other news

[Guest guest]

Hi Kathy,

My health journey started when my daughter had pinworms. She had a bad

case for 3 yrs, and the pediatrician just kept making different excuses

for her symptoms. I wouldn't have believed it, if I hadn't seen it

with my own eyes. They say parasites love sugar just like we do and

the weaker the host, the more likely that you have them. I couldn't

sleep for weeks after that.

I would love it, if you could post about the sausage making.

honey instead of sugar? Well, it's now our best seller."

These guys are very nice, remember you when you go in, and do custom

stuff. They are at Bay 1, 3610, 29th St. NE, Calgary, and have a web

site at http://www.horizonmeats.ca

which I have never visited. Or you

could just phone them at 403 291-0595.

Kathy and I have also been making our own sausages recently, which is

an interesting procedure, and if anyone is interested I could post a

few details about getting started, since there are a few points that

look impossible until you know what to do, and then are easy.

Connor is still not doing all that well, but seems to be improving a

little bit - he was doing really well for about five years and then

suddenly went downhill.

This summer we have made friends with Misty, our neighbor across the

street, who used to run a traveling circus in Mexico. She gave us a

packet of de-worming pills and said, "No doctor in Mexico would see

you with digestive problems until you have been wormed."

Since Connor initially became sick after swimming in Lake Shuswap and

swallowing some water this is interesting. Kathy pointed out that we

were told that the lake water is safe to drink, and another one of our

neighbors said, "That's pretty funny. I lived there when they took

down the signs saying not to drink the water. It's full of amoebas

and giardia."

So we have wormed Connor and we will see.

I will say again that all of this stuff will be easily curable when

we finally face the obvious: that this is entirely due to different

bacterial and parasitic infestations, and that we will have to look

for a different cause, or combination of causes, in each case.

It is obvious that having one type of parasite makes you a good

target for others, and it also seems likely that any immune

disfunction is not because your immune system suddenly tries to kill

you, any more than your left arm might suddenly decide to throttle you.

The only way that most of these things can survive inside you is by

secreting substances that mess with your immune system, and it is very

likely that this is the cause of any immune troubles - they are a

symptom and not the cause. Any other explanation is so tortuous as to

be unbelievable, and - more importantly - doesn't let you cure the

disease.

Sorry this has become so long,
