Forgive me for being dense, but is this for real? (Your piece sounds poetic, and your blog is new.) If so, I trust you’ve pursued modern diagnostic routes. I keep thinking of the cases of bizarre medical conditions I’ve heard about where dozens of doctors and hospitals were unable to diagnose it, and then some expert someplace was able to discover the cause and treat it. Anyway, this mediation stuff sounds dangerous!

Best wishes,
Kernon

Hi Kernon: Thanks for your concern. Yes, it’s for real. I’ve spent thousands and thousands of dollars seeking a diagnosis and cure, but the only thing that helps is meditation (and having a wonderfully supportive wife!). Believe it or not, the meditation really does help. I’ll write more formally about the subject when I get some time. For now, my motivation was principaly to share a potent personal experience. One can make of it whatever one likes. –Joshua
