I'm glad you posted this, Hockey, Shelley sent me the link the other night and I confess, I am wildly excited by the possibility of it being something so simple!

I'm seriously wondering if I can get to Roto-Rooter at my own expense, the possibility alone is worth it to me.

I was really pleased to hear that the Canadian MS Society is not going to drag its feet on this. Effective 1 December, extra research money is going to be made available to study Liberation Therapy.

Each year, instead of Christmas exchanging gifts, hubby and I make a donation to charity. This year our cheque is going to the MS society - along with the prayer that this really is the breakthrough that is going to change so many lives for good.

Cheers

I don't think it's that simple. This theory does not account for genetics, lots North, less South (geographic factors) and other things. May be a by-product but doubt answer is this simple. All surgery is dangerous, already there are deaths with shunt displacement/ movement. I'm going to see what happens. While I always have a little hope on these things, I've seen too many become nothing. I predict this will overwhelmingly effective for some, destructive or non-effective for others.
