CCSVI in MS

Buffalo is the only sicentific blinded study already under way and that since April 2009. Other studies will start soon but are not operational already. 1 700 patients will be tested for CCSVI and the outcome could trigger widespread recognition of MS / CCSVI relationship. First 500 patients results were reported already with very promising prospects.

That is why it is so important tu support BNAC study which will not get any MS societies support due to close links with Zamboni.

BNAC just told me they only raised 202 000 dollars so far, 60 K from private people.Tthey need 5 millions to finish the sutdy.

So please all donate quickly. Stop giving MS societies, give the money directly to studies. See link below.

There are also many news articles lately featuring individual Canadians who are fundraising to raise money for their treatment.

The CCSVI Alliance website, ccsvi.org is up and running! We are a 501c3 nonprofit US corporation. For those who want to get to know us, go to http://www.ccsvi.org and if you'd like to help further CCSVI research or the Alliance, check out "Helping the Cause".


Thanks!!

I have a personal plea for donations towards Dr. Siskin’s clinical trial which has started and will show that people with Multiple Sclerosis are suffering from CCSVI and it's treatable. Our fundraising goal is $10,000, if each of the people on my friends list can donate $5.00 we will have almost reached that goal. Dr. Gary Siskin is one of our pioneer heroes in the treatment of CCSVI. I would like us all to help insure this study will be well funded and move forward. I’ve set up a Paypal donation button and I urge you to donate.

Please share this link on your wall or in your email with friends and family, every bit helps!

Thank you so much for your donation.

Greetings,
There are various ways to raise funds. I suggest for charities to approach big donors rather than small ones. It is easier to convince one person to give $100k or $1M rather than collecting small amounts.

I also tried to raise funds through a competition, however, people are not much interested for an unknown reason:
Try to see: http://www.avivacommunityfund.org/ideas/acf8942

Even if my campaign did not work, I suggest for others to post their ideas again on this site for the coming round. It does not require a huge number of people. It just need a strong team behind the cause.

There are other venues to raise funds as well.

I think EndMS has quite a bit of donation from a single charity group. Dont exactly remember the name but it was probably Pennington or something like that ...

All,

My father and my wife's aunt both died from MS.

I have been daily following all of the posts here at TIMS since 12/16/09. I have shared information found here with Neurologists, Vascular Surgeons, and friends I know who have MS. Thank you all for your contribution to science and MS research. I just donated $250 to this group below.

It seems like a modest way I can express my Christmas gratitude at what is happening here. You won't see me post because I don't want to clutter this wonderful site. But we will continue to donate to CCSIV research.

Thank you,

Rogan Jones

I cannot imagine that your posts would be clutter or anything but welcome. If you've been following for that long, you know the ins-and-outs of CCSVI!
Merry Christmas, and what a wonderful gift it is to contribute to CCSVI research.

It's that time of year again. I just made a $250 donation to the CCSVI Alliance.

http://ccsvi.org/

Their efforts to spread CCSVI awareness and their ability to bring some very smart minds together to solve this horrible disease has been a blessing for me and the world.

Thank you CCSVI Alliance, keep up the great work you do. And thank you for supporting ISNVD.

It looks like ISNVD could be your groups "Science Advisory Board" what an amazing group of doctors that are working on this.
