More REVISED bone marrow donor info

SORRY FOR THE CAPS. THIS IS WHAT THE IPHONE CAN DO AND I DON'T KNOW HOW TO TURN THEM DOWN!


MORE INFO RE BONE MARROW DONATION:

SOME OF YOU HAVE SAID THAT YOU ARE ONLY WILLING TO DONATE TO ME AND DO NOT WANT TO REGISTER NATIONALLY.   THESE R THE STEPS:

WWW.BONEMARROWTEST.COM.     OR MAYB .ORG I'M NOT SURE AS IM BACK ON IPHONE ENTRY FOR NOW.    PAY $175 AND THEY WILL SEND YOU A KIT.  YOU SWAB YOUR CHEEK, WRITE A NOTE SAYING THAT YOU ONLY WANT TO DONATE TO ME KAREN MAUTHE AT THE FRED HUTCHINSON CANCER RESEARCH CENTER.   THE STANDARD TURN AROUND TIME IS 7-10 BUSINESS DAYS SO IF YOU R WILLING TO DO THIS, PLEASE CONSIDER DOING IT SOONER RATHER THAN LATER.   REMEMBER THAT QUOTE FM THE DR? "60% oF ALL SEVERE APLASIA CASES ARE DEAD WITHIN 4 MONTHS WITHOUT TREATMENT."    ONE MONTH SINCE DIAGNOSIS HAS ALREADY PASSED FOR ME!  YOU CAN CALL THEM AT 877-565-3287 FOR MORE INFO.   TELL THEM TO FAX THE RESULTS TO 206-288-1013 WITH MY NAME.  I KNOW IT'S EXPENSIVE, BUT I WOULD LIKE TO LIVE. STRAIGHT UP.

AND THIS, MY FRIENDS, LEADS ME TO A FEW OTHER THOUGHTS.




 I REALIZE THAT SOME OF YOU MAY NEVER HAVE DEALT WITH A FRIEND OR FAMILY MEMBER IN MY POSITION.   I REALIZE THAT ALOT OF YOU ARE SHAKEN THAT SOMEONE AS DEDICATED TO GOOD HEALTH COULD HAVE SUCH A CIRCUMSTANCE BEFALL THEM.   IT UPSETS EVERYONES SENSE OF WELL BEING.   WHILE I CAN'T TELL YOU HOW MUCH I APPRECIATE YOUR SWEET NOTES OF SUPPORT AND LOVE, I FEEL LIKE I MUST SAY SOMETHING DIRECTED ONLY TO A FEW OF YOU BUT I WOULD LIKE TO SAY IT PUBLICLY AND ALL AT ONCE.


I AM DEDICATED TO ALTERNATIVE THERAPIES IN EVERY SENSE. I HAVE WRITTEN BKS AND GEETA IYENGAR LETTERS ASKING FOR GUIDANCE IN MY PRACTICE. I AM WORKING WITH A NATRAPATH IN BC WHO WAS VERY UPFRONT ABOUT MY SITUATION.  THE NUMBER ONE THING, HE SAID, IS SURVIVE! WHICH PRETTY MUCH MEANS THAT I SHOULD DO EXACTLY WHAT THE EXPERTS AT FRED HUTCH SAY.   MY FRIEND WHO IS THE HERBALIST AT DR LADS ARYUVEDIC SCHOOL SAYS THE SAME THING. THE CHINESE HERBALIST I SAW LAST WEEK SAID THE SAME THING.  THE ESSENTIAL OILS EXPERT, WELL HE SEEMS A BIT MORE FLAKEY IF I'M REALLY HONEST WITH MYSELF, SAYS THE OILS CAN CURE IT.  DEAR SWEET CAMILLE COATES INVESTED ON MY BEHALF IN HIS ADVICE AND I RUB RIDICULOUSLY EXPENSIVE OILS INTO MY FEET AND LIVER EVERY NIGHT BEFORE BED.    I AM TAKING SUPPLEMENTS AND HERBS AND HOMEOPATHIC REMEDIES.   I JUST GAVE A COMPLETE LIST OF EVRYTHING I'M INGESTING TO THE FRED HUTCH PHARMACIST SO THAT SHE COULD CHECK TO MAKE SURE I'M NOT BAD DRUG/HERB COMBINING.   I MEDITATE, STARE AT CANDLES, BREATH, IMAGINE WHITE LIGHT HEALING MY BODY. IM COVERING ALL MY BASES AS BEST I CAN.


THAT SAID WHILE I APPRECIATE YOUR OFFERS OF REMOTE ENERGY HEALING SESSIONS WITH PEOPLE WITH NAMES LIKE ANATASIA WHO CAN'T QUITE SEEM TO GET IT TOGETHER WHEN I SPOKE TO HER, I MIGHT SUGGEST THAT THE BONE MARROW TEST MIGHT BE A BETTER USE OF YOUR CASH.  SAYING THINGS LIKE "THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR TAKING SUCH GOOD CARE OF YOURSELF" WHILE I'M GETTING A BLOOD TRANSFUSION SO THAT I CAN CONTINUE TO LIVE---WELL IT'S NICE BUT IT DOESN'T MAKE ME FEEL SUPPORTED IN A REAL WAY.  I WANT TO THANK ALL OF YOU WHO HAVE BEEN REAL WITH YOUR SUPPORT. IT HELPS ME THROUGH MY DAY WHEN YOU SAY "I'M SORRY YOU ARE GOING THROUGH THIS AND WHAT CAN I DO TO HELP?"  AT THE MOMENT MY ANSWER TO THAT QUESTION IS, PLEASE CONSIDER A BONE MARROW TEST IN MY NAME.


BUT THERE WILL BE OTHER WAYS TO HELP ALSO.  I MOVED INTO MY OWN STUDIO APARTMENT CLOSE TO THE CLINIC ON MONDAY.   THE PLACE IS FOR FRED HUTCH PATIENTS--A QUIET COMMUNITY OF BONE MARROW TRANSPLANTEES.  I AM APPLYING FOR FINANCIAL AIDE--tHE RENT IS $1550 PER MONTH W PARKING.  A FRIEND OF MINE IS LOOKING INTO A DONATE PAYPAL BUTTON FOR THE BLOG AND I'M AFRAID I HAVE BEEN LAX IN MY DUTIES TO MAKE THIS HAPPEN SOONER.  BUT IT IS COMING.  I AM ALSO LOOKING INTO PAID AFTER TRANSPLANT CARE SO THAT THOSE OF YOU WHO HAVE OFFERED TO COME CAN BE FRIENDLY SUPPORT RATHER THAN PRIMARY CARE. THIS IS THE VERY REAL SITUATION I AM FACING.  FOR THOSE OF YOU THAT HAVE OFFERED TO COME HELP PLEASE DO NOT TAKE MY SEARCH FOR PROFESSIONAL HELP AS ANYTHING BUT AN EFFORT TO REDUCE MY DEPENDENCY UPON YOU IF YOU CHOSE TO COME.  I UNDERSTAND THAT THE BONE MARROW TRANSPLANT IS PRETTY INTENSE AND SKILLED NURSING IS NOT A BAD IDEA ALBEIT PRICEY.

KAREN MAUTHE
525 MINOR AVE NORTH #608
SEATTLE, WA 98109
mY FAX: 206-262-9246
