I have just finished watching" Larry King Live."the show was on manic depression and bipolar.
one of the guest's were Dr.Kay Jamison among several other well know people that have this illness.
i would like to express my thanks to her for being an example of success to ones that was without hope of ever leading a normal life.
my son Adam and daughter Angela have bipolar .so for the past eight years it has been a roller coaster ride trying medications until one or a combination has worked. both my children are doing well now but Adam is having a rough time adjusting to life in general, he no longer has friends ,only me his mother and brothers and sisters.he hasn't yet started working again and really doesn't have a work background to fall back on,for he was diognosed with bipolar when he was 18 but i am sure he was bipolr a year before that ,he is now 25 years old.
the pain is undescribable as to how i feel because of what this illness has done to my family and i truly believe when a family member you love goes through manic depression they become ill as well.
i have to take a combination of medicine for my anxzity and depression now and also have to see a therpist to be able to cope.
one way i have been able to cope is writing poetry and i would like to include one with this message that i wrote during a very trying time.
"Fear"
The least little noise will make my heart race,
And the heat and blood i feel come up in my face.
With my heart pounding i can hardly hear,
Was the noise coming from where i fear?

I set there and listen still as a stone,
Was it just the wind or is something wrong ?
Please God i pray don't let it be from within,
Let it be outside ,let it be the wind.

In a little while i will call out his name ,
Yet fearing for that is where the noise came.
In the tone that he answers i can tell if he is alright,
If its going to be a restless or a peaceful night.

Or will it be the same as so many nights before,
My heart is breaking ,how can he take anymore.
He seems to be getting better with each passing day,
But the fear of the pass ,it just won't go away.

This place
This place all too familiar
unwanted keeper of my soul
Endless days and nights spent searching
A life known long ago

A place so dark and empty
even angels fear to go
All pathways lead to nowhere
Vast caverns doomed to roam
Memories hang like cobwebs
This darkness is my home

I remember music
Walks in sunlights warmth
Now laughters just an echo
Faceless shadows are all i find
Anguish to keep company
This prison is my mind

I awoke on April 5, 2002 to what would become a father's worst nightmare. My oldest son, Matthew, a First Class Midshipman (Systems Engineering Major)at the United States Naval Academy, had been born 22 years earlier that very day. I received a call from his mother at work informing me that Matthew had been admitted to Walter Reed Army Medical Center Psychiatric ward with a diagnosis of bipolar disorder. Only six weeks from his graduation and commisioning. Our world had turned inside out and upside down. The recovery story is long and painful, he took his medicine and things got better. Your book, An Unquiet Mind, was an enormous help. But he has stopped taking his medication, got a job, moved out, and now he has that look in his eyes again. Please, Doctor Jamison, can you help us understand what is happening? What can we do? What can Matthew do to understand this condition better? Please, oh please, send back some sort of reply!

Thank you for your time.

I'm bipolar. I have long admired Dr. Jamison beginning with her book, "Touched With Fire." I would like to share some interesting information with her.

It's about how I have apparently cured my pervasive depression, at least since July, as well as most of the rest of the normal symptoms of manic-depression. I'm 54 years old, so this is very unique, I think.

I have suffered from severe Bipolar Affective Disorder all my life. No one in my family ever recovered from depression in their mid-fifties. It appears that I have.

I would appreciate it if you could give me her email direction, or else, ask her to get in touch with me. I think this is potentially a significant thing, however, I'm reticent to discuss it with anyone else.

Thanking you for your expedient attention to this matter, I remain,


Very truly yours,

Mark <e4f4nf3d3@hotmail.com>

Today I sent this email to the President of the USA.

His minions may no doubt ignore it but we cannot allow that - please therefore support my request by doing the same, in thousands.

president@whitehouse.gov

9 December 2001

Mr George W Bush
President of the United States


Dear Mr President

Today I stand at your door and knock.
Today I ask you to do what you must know in your heart, is right

What I ask, you can do - it is very much within your power.
Whatever cloak of justification or motive you may wear in doing it, is of no interest to me - I just ask that you do it.

If I can appeal direct to the Lord God himself and he will hear this supplicant
Surely I can speak direct to the President of the United States - a personage much lesser than the Almighty

Why should I not be considered?

Today I am one.
Tomorrow I will be many

Tomorrow, what I ask will be exactly the same as I ask today
No more, no less.

I will keep asking the United States until I can no longer draw breath.
After me, many others will ask this same thing

The United States must rectify this shame

There is no other way of honor, dignity or integrity
Tenets your office claim to hold so highly.

"I am a 51 year old Afro Caribbean.
I have only once since a boy, wept from obvious distress.
Today I did, when I read about the travesty of white America's contempt towards the legacy of Henrietta Lacks.

What then in the name of all that is right before Almighty God, can the words of the battle hymn of the Republic mean!

His truth is marching on?

The USA continues its actions across the earth, of killing people of colour.
Yes, it also feeds many but it kills them too.
Many.

I appeal to you as the highest power of the most powerful nation on the face of God's earth,

Rectify the injustice relating to the memory of Henrietta Lacks

I am resolved to keep asking you and your successor(s), again and again and again and again and again. and again and again.

To our last breath.

"Please order the uplift of the remains of Henrietta Lacks and re-inter them in the US national cemetery with full honours."

Read this righteous sentence by the dim and flaring lamps.

We have sounded forth the trumpet that shall never call retreat.

Let America sift out its heart before His judgement seat.

He is wisdom to the mighty, He is honor to the brave.

Until the day America faces this shame and rectifies it,
We as children of the living God of all peoples,
Will not become weary, and our numbers shall multiply.

The truth can never be defeated.
Our God is marching on.

Do the right thing.

Thank you, sir.

I am a 51 year old Afro Caribbean. I have only once since a boy, wept from obvious distress. Today I did, when I read here the travesty of white America's contempt towards the legacy of Henrietta Lacks. What then in the name of all that is right before God, can the words of the battle hymn of the Republic mean! His truth is marching on? The USA still continues its actions across the earth, of killing people of colour.
I have today written in strongest terms to the American embassy with my protest about the injustice to the memory of Mrs Lacks and I will continue to do so, again and again and again and again and again......

We must stand together on this.

We must keep appealing to America.

We must keep doing so to our last breath.

I am resolved to keep appealing to America to uplift the remains of Henrietta Lacks and re-inter it in the US national cemetery with full honours.

Until America faces its shame and rectifies it, we as children of the living God of all peoples, must not become weary, for the truth can never be defeated.

This site is very interesting indeed, and it has enlightened me. It is crucial that we all know and understand the importances of these scrolls and other docuements...and just as important that we know WHO was and is responsible for helping all to uncover the truths in regards to the age and authenticities of such as well. A very helpful site....thank you Charlotte Fay Cannon-Asher

Anything Dr.Jamison writes is a blessing to read. I have learned so many things from her. It's people like her who will make it easier for people with manic-depression to get help and see that there truly is hope!!

Enjoyed the site immensely, particularly the SIMPLY CPR notes re defibrillation. Is it possible that Dr Kouwenhoven visited the Colorado Medical Society in late 50's? Someone from JH did and provided the schematic diagram for an AC defibrillator. Built one and saved a couple of lives! JGP

Truly enjoyed the issue with the exception of the Stephen Teret article. As evidenced by the on-line responses to date, I don't have to go further...they say it all...... Maybe future issues could carry more anecdotal short comments about these and other Pioneers such as C.D. Long, Owen Lattimore, Lynn Poole (Dir. of PR) etc.
