Letter writing campaign for Barb Farrell - VICTORY
Barb Farrell receiving treatment outside of Canada.....
This woman has had many surround her in this most frustrating time. WONDERFUL that there are Doctors who have ethics and are willing to treat those in need. Thank you Doctor ?. Your heart is defiantly in the right place. You willing to treat Barb is overwhelming CCSVI sufferers in Canada and I am quite sure across the world. I wish I could thank you personally but I do understand this is a very tricky (I say silly) situation. I understand that Barb will return to the same hospital bed. I truly believe there will be improvements that the hospital staff will see for themselves. The are witnesses to her condition BEFORE and now will be AFTER. There will be changes. How can there not? To have a proper blood flow and circulation would show changes. It makes sense. They will not be able to sweep this under the carpet. If the follow ups are not noted good or bad and we hear nothing, this will prove to me our government is leaning on the side of corruption. I am waiting to see what happens to our efforts to help a fellow CCSVI sufferer.
RVH
I hope that RVH looks for changes in Barb and tests her swallowing. I hope and expect that her breathing will be better and probably speech. However if they continue to feed her through the feeding tube, that will not help. They have to test her swallowing ability the same way they test people recovering from Guillian Barre syndrome and find out if she can swallow. She is going to need rehabilitation for swallowing and walking. They cannot just dump her back in that bed and continue to tube feed her.
Mr. Farrell has said that the hospital has been very good to them, so I have to assume they'll do everything they can to wean her off of the feeding tube if she is able to do that. I still can't believe how quickly a solution was found for her. Still smiling.

THANK YOU MANGIO!!
Ok, I cried yesterday because of the Dr. Sclafani irb rejection, I'm crying today because of this. I think I have to toughen up, this is just the start of however long we are going to be at this until we get ccsvi proved and every MSer treated.
M. Turner syndrome...I know this from DrS's thread but I don't remember...is it the vein to the kidney?

Thanks Trish...so yes there are treatment options for May-Thurner syndrome, including our familiar ballooning and stenting...forgive me for this snarkiness but I must assume that Canada allows veins in *that* area of the body to be ballooned and stented! Just not the neck!
