Guest guest Posted December 29, 2009 Report Share Posted December 29, 2009 I considered going back to T4 only and may still do that. The medical person I see now really did not like prescribing Armour or NT, but I came to them on it and I think they were reluctant to go against the prior professional. The area I live in, it is difficult to get a doctor, period. I've been making do with the person I see now, who I am reluctant to even call a doctor. My recent problems, finally, caused him to admit he can't handle this and he said he was going to refer me to an endo. In this area, to the best of my knowledge endos only see patients that are referred. If it weren't for my experience on these lists, and finding ways to help myself I would be in big trouble right now. I really think the problems I had in past weeks were related to not getting enough med due to NatureThroid not being manufactured to be used sublingually. I have been taking 2/3 of my dose with breakfast for 5 days now and it's going good. I plan to take the remaining 1/3 on the 7th day. After sending my initial message on this and re- reading it I wasn't sure I was clear enough that the reason I wrote it is because I know others were trying to take NatureThroid sublingually and I now believe that was the source of my problems in recent weeks. Not sure, of course, but that is how it seems. Abbey > > I had to go back to T4 only.

Guest guest Posted March 10, 2010 Report Share Posted March 10, 2010 Pat's email is pdrimones@... I made an error. Many have asked if we accept out of district kids. We do. We are a magnet school program and currently house magnet Autistic, MD and PRE-K Disabled programs. This program would also allow for children to attend who are not residents of Ridgefield, your child study team would need to set up an intake with our director.

Guest guest Posted March 7, 2011 Report Share Posted March 7, 2011 The I.R.S. has a free publication which you can download on who you can claim as a dependent. Believe me the $674 per month that SSI gives us to care for our children is just a pittance when it comes to the real cost of supporting them. As long as you can show that you pay for 51% of your child's care, you can continue to claim him/her as a dependent.

Guest guest Posted March 7, 2011 Report Share Posted March 7, 2011 Agreed… however, please remember to also take into account, in addition to the SSI and/or SSDI received, what the State of Illinois is paying through Medicaid/Medicaid Waiver (including, but not limited to, HBSS, CILA, ICFDD, Medical, etc.) and/or Grant programs. I hate to sound like the IRS, but I am tainted having served as both an IRS Agent and IRS Attorney in my past, prior to the birth of my son with Autism. ______________ Rubin* [cid:image003.jpg@...] ___________________________________ The Law Offices of Rubin & Associates Law practice limited to serving the future & legal planning needs of Illinois families of children & adults with intellectual disabilities, developmental disabilities, & /or mental illness...

Guest guest Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 Yes, this is exactly the answer I get from anything I read or anyone I've asked; and is still vague to say the least. Just WHAT exactly constitutes more than 50%? SSI deems " fair share " as portion of mortgage/rent, utilities, food, etc. and indicates by their own accounting that we've provided " income " if not charging by taking $225.00 which amounts to 34% charged of income. (674.00 total amount less 225.00 leaving her $449.00 as her monthly SSI) Therefore, by charging our young adult would qualify for the entire amount of SSI ($674.00). Obviously $674.00 by no means takes care of all support. When asking my accountant regarding can we now still claim our adult child as a dependent he says " yes " because she still resides under our roof and the mere amount we are charging does not even begin to cover what it takes to take care of her and that we can still claim her as a dependent. We do NOT receive anything other than SSI. No other Waiver, Grant, etc. I've scoured the IRS website many times.just where is the language that makes it clear as to what makes up 51% and not 50%? I think everyone forgets that not all of our young adults have all the services/income that they are entitled to since the State is broke. If my child were receiving all of that then I could understand it would be pretty tough to claim her but since we only receive SSI I would think my accountant has the correct answer for us. I don't think the IRS makes it clear just what more than half support is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 27, 2011 Report Share Posted March 27, 2011 Well, it's unfortunate that that person below apparently did not see my recent posts of PAGES & PAGES of how to home-culture milk, and do's and don'ts of candida diet suggestions! [And what would have been wrong with that person simply saying, " I would love to know some diet suggestions.. " OR whatever else they needed. ???] Also, all of us have lives to live. I can't possibly respond to EVERY post here! I have to assume that those with the heart to reply to so-and-so's need will do so; and those posts that I have a heart and compassion to reply to, I will. That is what makes a group/team effort. Many facets, many avenues of help through numbers of people, not just one or two folks. Finally I have to say as a former Chair of a large support organization, when people come to RECEIVE only they will come and go! When they come to LEARN & CONTRIBUTE, they stick around longer! NOT to say that we ought to expect newbies to give, give, give. But if all they want is certain answers and one, don't ask for them, then they will be disappointed because we are not mind readers. Secondly, if they come with certain expectations and are not willing to hear the truth, they will also go away disappointed. NOT everyone wants to hear things like, " NO high carbs, they will feed the fungus.. " (We can please some of the people some of the time, we can't possibly please all of the people all of the time..) For myself, I am HUGLY gratified in that my own health is taking leaps and bounds in the RIGHT direction after 10 years of suffering. I am NOT sorry for the mention, even repeatedly, of MMS/AOT if even ONE other person has been helped by it. (I do happen to know that probably a NUMBER of people are now finding relief through my recommendation of the product. Makes up for the " sour grapes " persons.) Thanks for listening if you got this far. I love you all. ~Louise Here is an example of why people leave the group. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I am leaving the group now, and may look for another one, as long as I can unsubscribe successfully. I've tried twice now, and hasn't worked. This group just seems too redundant, and I'm getting tired of hearing about MMS/AOT or whatever. I thought this was more of a group, but seems a little more like just a few people ever responding here with newbies coming and going. Just my opinion. Farewell! Other people leave because there are no food suggestions and how to fix it kind of things. Need to be more well rounded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 29, 2011 Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 Dear . You sound quite disheartened in this message and forgive me if I say so, but I do relate to where that sentiment comes from. I followed a path much longer than 3 years to finding a way, not to cure, but to bring this condition to a healthy balance. It was a path that led me completely away from the doctors, the labs and the known science. They, unfortunately, in spite of all their efforts, do not have the understanding to bring the resolution. Their hope lies in the new science that will take years to trickle down to the practitioners. We can thank the likes of Louis Pasteur for this current circumstance. Whom, by the way made an admission on his death bed that his work was fraudulent and it is not about the germ, it is about the terrain. It is the broad spectrum of thousands of strains of microorganisms that keeps the balance and prevents pathogenic overgrowth and mutation of any single one or several few. Misunderstood and unhealthy eating habits, generally called healthy, and our depleted food chain, along with unnatural and invasive treatment practices work together to continue the syndrome that creates the dead, dying and damaged tissue in our bodies that these overgrown, pathogenic microorganisms feed upon. The secret lies not in attacking the Candida, but in bringing the balance, through an overall program of healthy eating, replenishing the missing elements from the food chain and killing off the pathogenic overgrowth. Until that is accomplished, whatever might be even somewhat successful in treating the Candida is doomed to fail because the imbalance that created the condition has not been managed. I am sorry that you have already expressed your unwillingness to alter your belief that there is a medical cure somewhere out there for what you and so many others suffer from. The truth is that, that system is unrelenting in attacking and outlawing the books and remedies that do work because it takes away their business. It is counterproductive to this forum for you to say there is no answer because you have spent 3 years looking. You have refused to look at what I have been saying and in an overall program like the one I recommend (which, by the way, I do not know of another), people do regain their health and balance. Because when you restore the body to nature, meaning the natural state, the nature in the body does the healing.

So far NOBODY knows how to cure it, the right treatment, and even if a cure is ever possible. There is NOT standard treatment for anybody.

Guest guest Posted March 29, 2011 Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 You still don't know anything about candida, Wil, but you know how to write promises of balance and to hook people to sell your supplements. It is a business matter and nothing more.! There is nothing to balance when you have a pathogenic organism that mutated to an invasive and virulent form. Candida Albicans (an other species) is a polymorphic organism that under some conditions is able to mutate to a pathogenic form. There are millons of people living with intestinal candida in its seed or not virulent form enjoying excellent health. This form of candida lives in " balance " or limited by the antagonistic friendly bacterial flora and a proper immune function. Again, under some conditions such as a drop in the immune function and a disturbed antagonistic gut microbiota, the yeast is able to mutate to its fungal form. This form is an INFECTION, is a chronic infection that need to be erradicated to recover the health. It looks like one time this happens, there nothing so far able to eliminate this fungal form of candida. This pathogenic, mycelial, germ tube form is what cause the syndrome known as a Candida Related Complex discovered for Dr. Orian Truss. Yes, there are many programs and people get better following a diet and taking supplements. It isn't necessary to buy from you anything to get better. There are many routes to get better as long as you respect the diet and take suplements. What happen is one time you open your diet and leave the supplements, the residual fungus began to growth again. In a few words, science hasn't found anything to eliminate this pathogenic form of candida one time it happened inside the gut. The reproduction rate of this fungal form is 10 000 times faster than the yeast seed form. You need to read microbilogy, read real books, research, and spend your time to gain knowledges. But, since you don't care about it, I see you are doing what matter to you very well. . > > > > Here is an example of why people leave the group. > > ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ > > I am leaving the group now, and may look for another one, as > > long as I can unsubscribe successfully.

Guest guest Posted March 29, 2011 Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 I beg to differ. Wil does know what he is doing. He is seeing MANY people get well, including ME. ALSO all of you, please note. I get NOTHING except the hope that some people here might ALSO get well, to tell of my progress. Wil DOES NOT BRAG on himself. I brag on him because I have been sick for 10 years, and am finally getting some measure of LIFE back--and yes I can thank WIL for that! (And sure I do the strictest diet probably anyone here does do, and the probiotics.. ALL of it..) ~Louise From: <dieguez.jorge@...> Subject: Re: FYI candidiasis Date: Tuesday, March 29, 2011, 4:18 PM You still don't know anything about candida, Wil, but you know how to write promises of balance and to hook people to sell your supplements.

Guest guest Posted March 30, 2011 Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 Hi Everyone, I don't say much on this board and I know everyone here is seemingly getting tired of all Louise's bragging on Wil and thinks she is getting some benefit from doing so. However how about this... I have not tried any of the mentioned products as of yet, but I do have some of them now as my order recently came in. I am still researching and waiting for things to slow down a bit down so I can talk more in depth about some of these products with Wil. Once I do start taking them and report back to the group how will you then feel about my responses, because I have been sick along time as well. and if I am helped I will likely respond the same way in hopes that one more life could be spared. Unfortunatley my mother was not so lucky and died at 58 and she started out the same as I did. I am going to list SOME of the health problems I face today and have for the last 18 years (by the way. I am only 37 years old). Since this is a candida board it is important to say that anyone who is not on a low carb diet and is still eating breads, pastas, sugars, starches etc. you are only prolonging your problem. I will tell you of just a couple of things I have going on: Lupus Osteoporosis Arthritis Asthma Degenerative bone disease Degenerative Disc disease Fractured bones Heal spurs Bone spurs Plantar Faciatis Bursitis Back spasms Labral hip tears Gall stones Dermatographism Hot/cold uticaria Hives Many allergies I am hoping to get some relief so I can get out of my car as quick as my 79 year old grandma. I am hoping to one day be able to walk without being stiff and in a tremendous amount of pain and be able to kick the soccer ball around with my kids. I will report back to the group, but I promise you if I am relieved of any of the problems mentioned above, I will not be silent about it. Also important to note, I am have lost two inches in heighth. Again, I am 37 years old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 30, 2011 Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 I really don't care if Wil has done the microbiology or not- The natural state of our bodies were MUCH healthier decades ago, even centuries ago. The more basic the diet the better of health. Quite frankly, the diet he has given me (not even INCLUDING the AOT) has worked, and my symptoms subside EVERY time I am faithful to it. Wil has NOT pushed his AOT and is very careful to not do so, although many of us HAVE raved about it- The AOT, I have to tell you, is NOT expensive ), I think you know you have to try it- if you want me to share and send some of it to you privately, so no one knows, contact me. Outside of that - I think you owe Wil a private apology for attacking his character- Wil has spent HOURS on the phone with my family, into the wee hours because he CARES, not because he's the beneficiary of my financial demise. > > > > > > Here is an example of why people leave the group. > > > ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ > > > I am leaving the group now, and may look for another one, as > > > long as I can unsubscribe successfully.

" --Wil IT'S NOT A MATTER OF KILLING OFF CANDIDA. WE ALL HAVE IT. IT'S A NATURAL PART OF OUR GUT FLORA! It's about getting it into balance and keeping it there. We live in extremely toxic times and our body requires regular maintenance and needs us to stop eating and using junk food and chemicals.
