Download Quicktime Movie of Live Schistosoma parasite from Subject A's scalp
"I'm sorry I don't remember
where everything comes from. Perhaps it would be good to admit I was
so shocked in the beginning that I tried to get them off me as fast as
I could. I didn't think I would end up being a science experiment. Now
when I remove something from my body I note: date, time, location and
save the specimen attached to a photograph. I hope this can help
patients or doctors who find themselves faced with this dilemma.
Currently three internal medicine physicians, a gynecologist,
dermatologist, gastroenterologist and pain management specialist have
reported there is nothing they can do. It is hard to keep my spirits
up when faced with this lack of support."

"It is
difficult for me to write this. It is now November 1, 2008 - more than
half a year since my sister and I, in absolute desperation, began this
web site in hopes of finding her real help and real treatment. Incredibly, although we have provided incontestable evidence
of her wide ranging parasitic infestation, not one accredited medical
professional has been able to help her in a significant way. She
continues to be tortured by worms and insects erupting everywhere out
of her skin. It has become clear to me that the medical system in the
United States - or at least, in Bakersfield, California - is broken,
and in many ways, worthless - and even worse, a fraud on patients and
taxpayers alike.
"Virtually all the medical professionals have handed her off
to someone else, effectively washing their hands of her problem. Some
have shown unbelievable incompetence, others only ignorance, but
all seem to have dumped her because her situation requires more
investigation than they wish to expend, or the corporations they have
sold themselves to will allow them to expend.
"What has happened to the Hippocratic Oath they supposedly
swore to? I don't know. It is no longer honored or understood.
"This is the oath these medical professional swore to:
I swear to fulfill,
to the best of my ability and judgment, this covenant:
I will respect the hard-won scientific gains of those
physicians in whose steps I walk, and gladly share such knowledge as
is mine with those who are to follow.
"Yet it is our
experience that, when presented with micrographs and specimens of
the schistosomes and insects infesting my sister, they simply ignore
the work and conclusions of the World Health Organization in the
treatment of schistosomiasis and pass her case on to an "infectious
disease expert" who gives her a blood test for AIDs and tells her her
terrible symptoms are "figments of her imagination,"
despite the photos.
"We have provided several doctors with large practices
beautiful specimens that are clearly schistosomes. Instead of
examining these under a microscope and comparing them to photographs
on the CDC web site, they have disregarded or failed to accurately
interpret the photographs and then incompetently sent the specimens,
unexamined, to a blood lab where they were destroyed. The results have
come back labeled negative, which is clearly an error, yet these
accredited medical professionals accept this and tell my sister that
she has no problem.
I will apply, for
the benefit of the sick, all measures [that] are required, avoiding
those twin traps of overtreatment and therapeutic nihilism.
"Bullshit. These
doctors are so busy with so many patients, making so much money, that
they have prostituted their own diligence for higher pay. When they are
confronted with a problem that would require extra effort, they simply
pass the patient off to a name from a list of "experts" and wash their
hands of their Hippocratic obligation. What is incredible - and
unforgivable - to me is that they would disregard or ignore the
information on necessary and effective treatment by the CDC and WHO that
we provide and pass my sister off to an incompetent like a slab of meat
to a so-called "expert" who does nothing. And these incredible,
incompetent bastards accept that while insects and worms make my
sister's life a living hell.
I will
remember that there is art to medicine as well as science, and that
warmth, sympathy, and understanding may outweigh the surgeon's knife
or the chemist's drug.
I will not be ashamed to say "I know not," nor will I fail to
call in my colleagues when the skills of another are needed for a
patient's recovery.
"These doctors
are not 'calling in their colleagues.' They are using their colleagues
as a waste basket for patients who are too challenging for their
allotted time. My sister has been passed from one doctor to another - 12
doctors - in 10 years. Yet the symptoms and the treatment is clearly
described by both the CDC and WHO. Why isn't she being helped? Why isn't
she being treated? How can these doctors believe that they will not be
held accountable for these transparent tactics?
I will respect the
privacy of my patients, for their problems are not disclosed to me
that the world may know. Most especially must I tread with care in
matters of life and death. If it is given me to save a life, all
thanks. But it may also be within my power to take a life; this
awesome responsibility must be faced with great humbleness and
awareness of my own frailty. Above all, I must not play at God.
I will remember that I do not treat a fever chart, a
cancerous growth, but a sick human being, whose illness may affect the
person's family and economic stability. My responsibility includes
these related problems, if I am to care adequately for the sick.
I will prevent disease whenever I can, for prevention is
preferable to cure.
I will remember that I remain a member of society, with
special obligations to all my fellow human beings, those sound of mind
and body as well as the infirm.
If I do not violate this oath, may I enjoy life and art,
respected while I live and remembered with affection thereafter. May I
always act so as to preserve the finest traditions of my calling and
may I long experience the joy of healing those who seek my help.
Written in 1964 by Louis Lasagna, Academic Dean of the School
of Medicine at Tufts University, and used in many medical schools
today.
"I once again
renew my appeal for help for my sister. But it has been over 6 months
now and no medical professional has shown the slightest interest in this
website.
"This should scare anyone who is sick."
