My response: I would feel better if I could get my questions answered. My brain functions like a link bracelet. If all the links(pieces) don't fit into the bracelet(puzzle if you will)I become frustrated. Consider how important Dr. Lieberman has become. Not that he's not a considerate and sincere individual, but if he didn't respond to questions which patients and caregivers, as well as physicians proffer, he wouldn't have near the following. Consider, too, that the fact that so many questions are presented to him is more than proof that patients, etc., are not getting information from their physicians/neurologists to satisfy their needs.

My response: It is how Ishi saw the dawn which he then shared with me. I used to walk country roads at dawn(lived close to a mountain), so I could see the dawn. One morning, I saw what Ishi saw. I actually, walked within the headdress of the sun. It was beautiful and rare, and while I haven't seen the headdress since, I know it's there and will come again under proper atmospheric conditions. It became part of me. It is how I see and offer blessings. >>May we all walk in the headdress of the sun. >> >>E ([log in to unmask]) > > > > > Camilla Flintermann Oxford,OH > > <[log in to unmask]> > > On PD Webring at : >http://members.tripod.lycos.nl/genugten/flinterm.htm > And visit the CARE webring at >http://www.crosswinds.net/~caregivers/index.html > > > "In all beginnings, endings lie enfolded, > implicit and invisible as roots." > > > from: "Leaving the Garden"--CHF > > >
