	1) Today, Dorothy received a copy of the Spect Scan Report, performed by California Pacific (SF) on Jan 25th. The report, showed an abnormality that may have resulted from previous dental work. Further reading of the Spect Scan films by Dr. Tufft will occur on Thurs, February 3rd. 2) Based upon Dorothy’s positive response to various antibiotics on 4 separate occasions: June 2nd, 2004 (Ancef); Jan 6th, 2005 (Moxifloxacin), Jan 10th, 2005 (Doxicycline, Flagil, Zithromiacin) and most recently Jan 23rd, 2005 (Keflex), Dorothy, Jim and Dorothy’s consulting physician believe that the recent ALS symptoms are being caused by neurotoxins, being released by an infection in Dorothy’s bone structure. Further clinical testing, analysis and diagnosis will occur within the coming weeks. 3) A supplement protocol has been developed to increase Dorothy’s recovery speed. Additional supplements will be added to the existing program, as the doctor advises.

Daytime: GSH 1 ½ tsp 3xpd on empty stomach w/3 oz juice w/1 oz Goji juice; Keflex 4xpd; Acidophilus 100mg 1-3xpd not w/Keflex Bedtime: Ambien	Continued improvement albeit less than 5%/day More flexibility in arms daily	Dorothy was able to descend steps @ Kyle’s w/o assistance almost all the way.

Minor improvement in PM. Balance deteriorated in evening. Ringing in R/ear increased. R/side head ache worse. R/shoulder and L/hand still hurts. Lack of Baclofen causing some spasticity in R/leg.	Slow incremental increases (if anything at all!). Spirit remains high, but the waiting is driving Dorothy crazy!
	Opened Escrow on home purchase for the entire Middleton/Timewell/Santoro clan. Home is completely wheelchair accessible and will be perfect for Dorothy’s recovery. Home has 20’ X 40’ pool and an airplane hanger. Swimming is in Dorothy’s future, and flying may also be.

Mornings are still not good, but the burst of energy in the late afternoon makes up for it.	Changes in the supplement protocol gives Dorothy hope. Looking forward to Thur appt. Find the source of the neurotoxins!!!
Wed 2/2	1500 met w/surveyor at Property Walked to Hanger Door w/walker	Daytime: GSH 1 ½ tsp 3xpd on empty stomach w/juice Keflex 4xpd Acidophilus 100mg 1-3xpd not w/Keflex Cognitive Factors 1-3 xpd EPA/DHA 3-2 xpd Bedtime: Ambien	Slowly getting more strength, but still UTR (unable to rise) from sitting position regularly. Emotional strength is waning.	Bad morning - Mornings and evening have been less than acceptable lately, but mid-day outings make her happy.
	Dorothy is very anxious about tomorrow’s appt w/Dr. Tufft. She is praying that the infection in her jaw is what is causing the ALS symptoms, and that an end to her debilitating condition is in sight.
Thur 2/3	1130 Dr Tufft Spect Scan Reading Oakland 1830 Laura Visits Dorothy	Daytime: GSH 1 ½ tsp 3xpd on empty stomach w/juice Keflex 4XPD Acidophilus 100mg 1-3xpd not w/Keflex Cognitive Factors 1-3xpd EPA/DHA 3-2xpd Bedtime: Ambien	Again, a small incremental improvement in strength. Laura and our doctor gave Dorothy strength to continue on course.	After hearing a dissertation from Tufft, Dorothy was less than enthusiastic and lost confidence. Kind of like getting slugged in the gut. Consulting doctor made suggestions for course changes.
	Note: Expectation of the Appt w/Dr. Tufft was higher than it should have been. Once again, we are dealing with the Medical establishment that refuses to believe that neurotoxins can cause the symptoms as presented. An appt w/a Dental Surgeon was made after being recommended by Dr. Tufft. Dr. Swan’s next appt is mid April. We refuse to wait that long. We now need to find a Dentist that has experience with cavitations and/or toxic root canals.
Fri 2/4	Limited activity in AM. Drove her motorized 3-wheeler scooter for the 1st time.	Daytime: GSH 1 ½ tsp 3xpd on empty stomach w/juice Keflex 5xpd Acidophilus 100mg 1-3xpd Cognitive Factors 1-3xpd EPA/DHA 3-2xpd Baclofen 1-1xpd Bedtime:	No more energy than yesterday. Spirits were better, probably due to Laura’s visit last night. Very stiff legs.	Added Baclofen back into the mix due to on-going spasticity and rigidity in her legs after sitting.

Still UTR (unable to rise) out of bed or chair 100% of the time.	Ambien precluded Dorothy’s ability to get up middle of the night. No more Ambien! PM Able to cook a dinner – YEAH!! Still VERY limited physical strength. Looking forward to move to Sunlit Lane.

	Dorothy’s Consulting Doctor is researching dentists able and willing to perform biopsy, removal and treatment of Dorothy’s jawbone cavitations. Amazingly, there are very few dental surgeons who have the equipment, expertise and experience in this procedure.
Tues 2/8	Rode in car to property and Tufft’s office in Oakland - P/U Spect Scans and Dental X-Ray films	Daytime: Commensal 3-3xpd Keflex 5xpd not w/Commensal Cognitive Factors 1-3xpd EPA/DHA 3-2xpd Phyto-ADR 3-3xpd Prenenolone 2-2xpd Bedtime: Baclofen	Slightly stronger both emotionally and physically.

	Dorothy has an appointment w/a DDS in Santa Rosa, next Thursday, February 17th. Dental surgery should begin shortly after the cavitation is confirmed. Antibiotics (Keflex) will be kept at the current dose, until the bone infection is removed. After removal, IV antibiotics may be used to assist w/recovery. Property escrow is now scheduled to close February 25th. The move-in is tentatively set for the following day.

	Lyme results indicate the presence of Burgdorferi, the cause of Lyme Disease. Dorothy will be receiving treatment for Lyme within the context of her entire treatment.

Treatment for the possible cavitation will be sought, in addition to removal of dental metals.

As a result, all upper teeth and many bottom teeth will be removed over the next 4-6 weeks. Removal of all dental metal remains a high priority, based on Dorothy’s overall health. Scheduled removal of all dental metal on Saturday.

Tue 3/15	Sat in W/C directing Morgan on where to plant in the garden	Resumed supplements	Increased strength.
	Toxic metals test shows increased levels of Mercury, which was expected from the dental metals, and Lead. The high levels of lead indicate Dorothy had some type of environmental exposure to lead, quite likely as a child and young adult. Test results will be posted here soon.

	Dorothy & I would like nothing better than to save her teeth. However, all of her teeth had extensive metal fillings and, as indicated by the Cavitat™ scan, caused some major cavitations in her upper and lower jaw. To eliminate the extensive cavitations, we will only be able to save only the bottom front four teeth.
Fri 3/18	Rode to Sebastopol in PM	Appt w/Landerman – Removed sutures from lower right.	Feeling weak – realizes her arms are getting weaker
