NEW TREATMENT WITH PROMISING RESULTS: TESTIMONIAL AT THE END" Dr. Patricia KaneDr. Kane has had great success treating ALS patients with her treatment protocol which is different from anything else in this outline. I followed her protocol for about three months and I know that it works. It is not a "do-it-yourself" program, so you must contact her for more information. It is not inexpensive, but if you have a few dollars to spare, you might contact her and I do recommend her program. She is wonderful to work with.If any of you are interested in more information about Dr. Kane's protocol, you may contact her office:Haverford Wellness Center Dr. Domenick Braccia Dr. Patricia Kane 2010 West Chester Pike Suite 310 Havertown, PA 19083Phone: (610) 924-0600 Fax: (610) 924-0600http://www.haverfordwellness.com/There is one part of her protocol that you could do yourself and that I know has helped me. She recommends a product called E-Lyte. This product contains electrolytes and may be added to your drinking water. It works."My dad is on a ventilator, uses a feeding tube and has a catheter in which his infusion go straight into his blood stream (they had to do that cause it was getting hard to find a vein). Well, since he has been "back" on his treatments (after getting out of the hospital in 8/06) he has gone from not being able to move anything, not even his big toe, to being able to do thirty knee lifts each every day...squeeze an exercise ball twenty times with his right hand and ten with his left (first to go)...off the ventilator for six hours consecutively each day and so on. I just wanted to spread the word because we are optomistic that this will help him.Let me know what you think. Take care!Nat
