My Christmas Wish

Health Minister, Leona Aglukkaq, Dr. Alain Beaudet and Yves Savoie

I would like to share my Christmas wish list with you.

1. That the love of my life’s venous system keeps draining impurities from her brain and that her MS symptoms keep diminishing.

2. For everyone in Canada that has been given the label of MS to have the right to be tested and treated for CCSVI.

3. All of the people suffering with this venous abnormality that left Canada to be treated with a simple non-invasive venoplasty procedure, will be provided aftercare in their own country if needed.

4.  That the Canadian Multiple Sclerosis Society starts advocating for people with the diagnoses of MS that want to be tested and treated for CCSVI.

5. For the Ministry of Health and the MSSC to take action on CCSVI and not take advice from neurologist for a venous issue. (Neurologists are head doctors, not vein doctors)

6. For our Health Minister, Leona Aglukkaq and Yves Savoie, to let Dr. Alain Beaudet know his services and input are no longer required in the action that is to be taken in regards to CCSVI.

7. That our Canadian Multiple Sclerosis Society starts setting up physiotherapy for those that have been treated for CCSVI.

8. For the Health Minister to begin funding true studies into chronic cerebrospinal venous insufficiency with interventional radiologists so that they may find the best treatment practices.

9. That Canada stops this political power play with people’s lives and starts testing and treating for this treatable venous abnormality in the New Year.

10. For my 11 year old son Noah, to have the chance that he may one day go for a walk with his mom.

11.For there to be peace on earth!
