1/15/2012 3:36:12 PM | Dear Rick, Thanks for the reminder about how much Mel has given to the Morgellon's Community. If I live to 100 years old, I would never be able to repay him the generosity, selflessness, love and kindness he has extended to me and so many others. When I first got sick, I remember feeling like I would never, ever be able to make it through this. Now a little over 2 months in - while I still have some symptoms, good days and bad days, I have been given the strength to put one foot in the front of the other because I know there is a cure and there are more and more people being cured everyday. Many probably made deals with God - God if you would only cure my family member, spouse, children, friends, pets and self of this horrid illness, I promise to ________________. Well, by the grace of God, many are living cured or are nearly there. Many of us have brought useless products and paid for expensive medical treatments that didn't help. Spent every dime we have trying to feel and get better; only to be disappointed in the end. I don't want a partial cure or to feel a little better or to get this under control; I want this GONE. And as with many people, when I didn't have the money to get started on my own - Mel stepped in and got me started - that is truly walking in the spirit of God's love. He helped so many people that it caused him to go into bankruptcy - YET HE IS STILL DOING IT to this day. As many have experienced, the medical community can not or is not willing to help us; we are delusional in their eyes. Many in the medical community that are willing to help are so expensive that it is prohibitive to the most of us, so we remain sick and afraid. Friends and family usually don't understand, how can they? Unless you have this dreadful condition, you can never know how your every waking moment is consumed by this. Even worse than having it yourself, is seeing your loved ones or pets become sick with it too. This adds yet another layer of desperation and hopelessness. I get it, when you are free of this thing, you are so happy, you never want to look back again - NEVER. It is so easy to forget the very desperation, fear and hopelessness that you felt in the beginning and the hope of discovering that there is a cure. You've gotten your life back and so you skip off into the sunset and forget. Mel has not forgotten. He knows there are no telethons, marches, fund raisers or walks for Morgellons. I shutter to think about where I would be if Mel once he got cured, had gone merrily off into the sunset and never looked back and not kept his promise to help others conquer this illness. There is hardy a community for Morgellon's sufferers and what community there is, is divided. People arguing and speculating about how and where this thing comes from. The horror stories from well-intentioned people, that just want to make you throw in the towel FOREVER. Wisely, Mel just focuses on the CURE. Did you know that he starts his day before the crack of dawn reaching out to Morgellon's sufferers worldwide? When we are probably just rolling over in bed, he is counseling sufferers for free. If he charged, how many of us would be able to afford it at all? The reality is that many, many sufferers are unable to work and may be on disability, if we are lucky. And disability barely pays you enough to survive, much less deal with a debilitating illness on your own like Morgellons. Mel, needs help, support and financial resources to continue his mission on getting the cure out to Morgellon's sufferers. Who among us could do all his does, 7 days a week, 365 days a year with little to no help? I know I couldn't and who would seriously want to? And so publicly? But Mel does it each and every day and thank GOD he does. Mel - if I haven't said it enough, I THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART. More than that I made a promise to you and I WILL keep it. Until I can keep my full promise, please let me know how I can be of assistance. I humbly say on the behalf of all the Morgellon's sufferers that you have helped and whose lives you have touched - GOD BLESS YOU GREATLY, DEEPLY AND ABUNDANTLY. I too ask that in addition to all the heartfelt thanks that you receive, that you GENEROUSLY get help, assistance and financial support. I Will love you always, Theresa S. |
