@mazeppabob... Thanks for the kind words about my problems. You are so right about the ailments and overlapping symptoms. Few doctors now will even bother treating me with anything but palliative care. It seems most of them feel it is their duty to protect the disease from the efforts of the patient. About babies with genetic issues, yes very many can be researched as you say. But in 1939-40 in the poorest rural areas of Idaho, there was no help. Even if there had been, there would have been no cure, just the knowledge of what might help a little with pain, etc. Even today there is no cure for any of this, really. My recessive genetic issues might have been avoided by telling my parents not to have kids together. And most of this is based on the research of others, and reported by Mayo, NIH, Helsinki, MD Anderson, Johns Hopkins, Boston Amy, etc. In my book about it I try to give everyone credit, but that is difficult because everyone works with stuff provided by others. The only thing original about my knowledge is what I have experienced in my own life, such as the the diplopia and multiple cancers and sub-surface skin disorders. Doctors used to think I was nuts, until their own labs investigated and saw the reality. Even Mayo.
