At long last, the Morgellon's piece is going to air tonight on our Paula Zahn Now show, 8-9p EDT. Thank you for all your efforts along the way, more information should be posted throughout the day on CNN.com.

Thanks again,

jw, good deal!

Tonight could be anytime with people replying to your post....so to not confuse folks, could you edit/PENCIL icon your post.

Go to topic line, add 6-22-06, 8 pm Eastern!
Now, we know it's tonight & WHAT TIME so we can program our VCRs or make sure we're sitting down watching it.

Thanks again for this up; many here have this, and I hope they are able to read this.

I know of someone I will sent this info too since I don't know if she reads the board daily.

I hope others who know these patients will forward this info too! Thanks everyone.

Hi Betty,
Thanks for the guidance.
Hopefully, the Paula Zahn program will offer
a balanced and informed approach that will
give Lyme folks a yardstick to compare their
symptoms with those who have Morgellons.

For now, reports indicate that more than
90% of those with the Morgellon symptoms test
positive with Lyme disease.

At the least, Morgellons victims may
get some much needed recognition and valida-
tion, not just the usual callous DOP diagnosis
from 10 paces away.

Blue Skies...........John

Hi John,


Also tonight, Morgellons is on Coasttocoastam, and JeffRense.com, so I guess it's really starting to pick up momentum.


It should also call more attention to Lyme disease as well.

Morgellons pre-empted by domestic terrorists,
who are a threat to no one and have already
been apprehended.

For some reason that disappoints me.
My priorities must not be in order. Maybe
another time.

You mean I MISSED IT???

Hi Bettyg,
It's interesting that the same video
on Morgellons was also on CNN.com:

http://search.cnn.com/pages/search.jsp?query=morgellons

It's the first really balanced report
that I've seen-- the naysayer (who
sounded much like a duck) was NOT
credible.

Glad they did the piece, I wish I had gotten to see it.

But you would think CNN transcripts would atleast have the names spelled correctly. Huh?

It seems there are about 400 more households registered on the MRF site since it aired.

Glad it didn't keep mentioning delusional over and over like every other report has in the past.

Good job, CNN!

Hi Gael,
I missed the interview with Cliff
Mickelson, Greema, and another Morgie.
Someone said it went so well that it
will air again this coming Wednesday.

Most of our herbal success is posted
in the General Health section of Lyme-
Busters. Here is a thread on Herbal
Treatment that gives most of the details:

Thanks for posting the link to the CNN story. I was surprised they didn't mention the possible Lyme / Morgellons connection.

What is with this COLUMBIA duck?? [tsk] Fallon, get rid of that duck at Columbia who doesn't believe in Morgellon's. "All in their heads." Geesh, sounds familiar.

We have only this moment, sparkling like a star in our hand... and melting like a snowflake. Let us use it before it is too late.
