Hello to everyone,
This is a quick note as I am still traveling homeward. The conference was over the top wonderful. Being with and meeting others (again or for the first time in person) was so emotional. That is worth the trip alone. If ya haven't been to a conference please try to come to next year. I will start saving when I get home for next year. They are only getting better and better! The friends I have made are life-long and I wouldn't trade them for anything.
Here are a few highlights:
-- Dr. Wymore reported that an agrobacteria study DID NOT significatenly reveal agro as a prime vector. Dr. Stricker said that Dr. Vitaly had applied for a grant to further research agro findings, but was turned down.
-- Dr. Wymore had problems getting a lab to accept Morgellons specimens for the "shotgun DNA" anaylsis. Seems that these labs did not want to expose their employees! He succeeded in locating a lab and has sent these specimens off about 2 weeks ago. He is in high hopes that preliminary reports may be in soon.
-- CDC issues: the BSC, CCID advisory counsel meets 2 x year. The next meeting is in May and it is felt that the big announcement will be then. I called the CDC today and the meeting is May 19 and 20 in Atlanta, Ga. Any one for a road trip?
This should be our next rally. I'm game and getting my tires dusted off and window washed for the trip.
-- Joni Mitchell sent a message to everyone. Please read her song lyrics "Sire of Sorrow" which she dedicated to Morgellons patients everywhere.
Well, I am just worn out. I have to rest a bit before getting onward toward Memphis. I'll stop on the way and try to check in, again.
Love and prayers to all,
Sunny
