Ames, 25, has multiple sclerosis, MS, and is one of a small but growing number of people with the disease using Bee Venom Therapy (BVT) to relieve their symptoms. Although a grass roots movement in the U.S., BVT reportedly dates back more than a thousand years in Asia. "I feel healthy, I've got a disease but I'm healthy," Ames says, clearly excited. One understands her enthusiasm. Last October she was completely dependent on a cane. She had lost 90 percent of the vision in her left eye. She was fighting numbness, fatigue, disorientation and loss of balance and feared the next stage would be a wheelchair. After six months of BVT, she's thrown away the cane. Ames is completely mobile and full of energy. She exercises, vacations, and works part-time in the admissions office of the Harvard Business School. To sum up the bee therapy, she says simply, "it's amazing." Multiply Sclerosis, is and acquired disease that attacks the brain and spinal cord, causing the nerves to fail in their ability to send impulses. The symptoms of MS vary depending upon where in the nervous system it is located. Researchers believe the damage MS causes results from a failure in the immune system because of an outside triggers, possibly a virus. Linda Guiod, of the Massachusetts Chapter of the Multiple Sclerosis Society, said there are 300,000 people diagnosed with the disease in the country, and 6,000 in Massachusetts. MS occurs in women at a ratio of 2 to 1 to men and is diagnosed by the time a person is 40 years old at least 75 percent of the time. The MS society is currently involved in a study of the effects of bee venom in animals, but it is too soon to speak with scientific proof on the use of bee venom in humans, according to Guiod. "The data available is strictly anecdotal," she said. Ames was diagnosed with MS in October 1990. She said she was skeptical when she first heard about BVT in a support group of some 15 people with MS. One woman in the group, Ann, said she was administering herself with 20 bee stings every other day, and it was really helping. "I said, 'That's crazy'," Ames said. At her six month check-up at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston, Ames said her doctor told her the bee venom essentially works as a natural steroid. Steroids are used in conventional treatments for MS patients when their symptoms recur. But she remained skeptical until, upon Ann's recommendation, she read a book about BVT called "Bee in Balance" by Amber Rose. The book convinced her. The next step for Ames was to find a beekeeper, which she was able to do easily enough at a local beekeepers' meeting. "He handed me a jar full of 200 bees." By the third month, Ames says she was feeling an improvement. Reported experts on BVT, like Charles Mraz, author of "Health and Honey Bee," recommend people with MS start out by stinging themselves with two bees and gradually working up to 13 sting, which are to be administered steadily for six months. Once a month Ames drives to her beekeeper and gets her 200 bees, as well as bees for two of her friends who also have MS and also are using BVT. The bee venom has been known to cause side effects similar to the flu, but that didn't happen to Ames. She is on no other medication but vitamin C and a multivitamin. Whether the proof that it works is anecdotal or not, BVT allows people with MS to put control of the treatment in their own hands, literally. Another significant reason BVT flies in the face of conventional treatment is that it's free. The beekeepers give up the female honeybees for nothing. But it's not about money, or convention for Ames. It's about life. The birds and the bees. "What it's all about is people helping people," she said.  é¡–—œ  ¦ § …Ô€€€€€€€€€Ð....()()))()().K:phoenixçæ‚ý⫧¯¨‚̥ȧȶÜƳˆÆ”“•Æ•‰…‡ŠÈÈƟƇŽ‰”‡Æ‚’‡ŠÈÈ‚ÃČ҅­ŸÆ·‘Õ”²ŸÄÆSummaryInformationÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ(ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ²ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿMicrosoft Word 6.0.12ÿþ ÐÏࡱá;ÿþ ÿÿÿþÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÎŒ—‘Õ”’Ÿ¦Ž‰’‹‡ŠÈ…‰‹ÏÈ‚û°ƒˆƒœ“ƒŠ‡ÊÆ«‡”‡…‡ŸÊÆ¢…Æ×ßßÐȂڶȢÈÆ·“ƒÆŽ‡…ƒ•Æ‰…Ž’‰ÆÙƨ“ˆ…‡Æ•ƒ”‡•Æµ‹‰ˆÆ¤‰Š‡”ÈÈƤ‰Š•‡ÆÇ‚üý‚ÉÖä«ÂãŠïæà‚ýçµãä Âà‚ÊËþÀ‚äµÂêŒä Ã‚ä¢ÂêŒã«‡…”‰‚ä¥ÂêŒã¥Š‰•ƒ‚ä¤ÂêŒâ©–ƒˆ‚ä§ÂêŒâ Šƒ‚ä«ÂãŠææàêŒå¥§¶‚ä«ÂãŠåæàêä§Âáä¥Â‚ä«ÂãŠãæàêä§ÂáŒâµ‡ƒ‚ä«ÂãŠäæàêä§Âáä¤Â‚ä«ÂãŠïæàêä§ÂáŒï²ƒ‹–Š‡’ƒ•‚ä§ÂêŒâ§“’‰‚ä«ÂãŠàæàêä«ÂãŠãæàáŒä§•‚ä«ÂãŠçæàêä§Âáä¤Â‚ä«ÂãŠîæàêä§ÂáŒâ£žƒ…‚ä«ÂãŠâæàêä§Âáä¥Â‚ä«ÂãŠáæàêŒã²‰‰Š•áä¢Â‚ç«êŠææ‚ç¨êŠææ‚Åç²êŠçæŠææÃîŠçæ‚Åç¯êQfãç²àŠçæÃîŠçæ‚ä¤Âê^fãç¯ôç²à‚ûäµÂêîfãXfãä¤ÂàôŠäæàø‚Åç¬êŠææŠïæ‚ûä¤Âêä«Âãç¬àø‚ûç²øç¨êç¨áŠçæÆç«êç«áŠçæ‚ç¬êŠïæ‚üû‚À‚Æ‚1æ•çæêä¤Âô•¶çêç²áç²áŠçæô•íæ‚üû‚À‚À‚ûä ÂëŒæø‚ûç«èŠìæåç¨ø‚7æ•JåêŠææô•°çêŠçæô•ÒæêŠçæô•±çêŒä×Ö‚Åç¯êŠææŠïæ‚ûç¯ëŠáæøç­êîŠçæÆç­êŠææ‚$fä ÂáŒçÜáä«Âãç¯àôä«Âãç¯àôç­‚À‚ä¤ÂêäµÂá fãáfãàfãìfãXfãä«ÂãŠáæààôŠåæààáŠçæàà‚1æ•çæêä«ÂãŠáæàô•¶çêŠçæô•Ðçêä¤Âô•Òä‚ä§Âê¦gãŠææôŠçæà‚Åç¯êQfãŠçæàŠçæÃîŠçæ‚ç¬êŠææ‚ä¤Âê^fãç¯ôŠçæà‚×ÕXfãä¤Âà‚ÕäµÂáŒç©‚ç¬êŠäæ‚ÕäµÂáŒç¥‚ç¬êŠåæ‚ÕäµÂáŒçµ‚ç¬êŠãæ‚ÕäµÂáŒäµ§‚ç¬êŠàæ‚üׂûç¬ø‚ä¥ÂêØgãä§ÂôŠææôç¬à‚ûîfãIfãä¥Âàôåfãä«Âãç¬àààëIfãä«Âãç¬ààåîfãä¥ÂôŠçæàëŒçÎø$fä ÂáŒçÜáä¤Âôä¥Âôç­‚üû‚À‚ç²êîŠçæ‚Åç¯êŠææŠçæ‚ûç¯øç¬êŠçæÆç¬êŠàæ‚ä§Âê¦gãç¯ôç¬à‚ç¬ê§gãä§Âôç¯àîŠçæ‚Åç«êç¬ÂŠçæÃîŠçæ‚ûéfãØgãä§Âôç¯ôç«àôä¢Âàø‚ûç¯ø‚ä¤ÂêØgãä§Âôç¯ôç«îŠäæà‚ûIfãä¤ÂàëIfãä«ÂãŠïæààåîfãä¤ÂôŠçæàëŒçÎø$fä«ÂãŠïæàôä¤Âôç­‚Æ‚ç«êç«áŠçæ‚üû‚Åç²êç«Âç«îŠçæÃîŠçæ‚ûç²éŠåæøWç•Jäêç¯ô•Íæêç²ô•çæêØgãä§Âôç¯ôç²àô•áæêä§Âô•_çô•åæêŠææ‚À‚ç«êŠçæ‚ç²êŠææ‚üû‚À‚À‚ûç²ø‚Åç¯êŠàæÂ笂ûîfãØgãä§ÂôŠçæôç¯àôŠçæàêŒçÎåîfãØgãä§ÂôŠçæôç¯îŠäæàôŠçæàêŒçÎø‚Åç²êŠçæŠåæÊäæ‚ä¤ÂêØgãä§ÂôŠçæôç¯îç²à‚ûîfãä¤ÂôŠçæàëŒçÎø$fä«Âãç²áŠàæàôä¤Âôç­‚À‚ç¯ê笂üû‚À‚üû‚üû‚Éç¢Ò²æ‚Ø碂ûç¨èŠìæå碕-æêŠçæâ碕-æêŠææâ碕-æêŠàæø‚碕-æêŠçæ‚Åç¯êQfãŠææàŠçæÃîŠçæ‚ä¤Âê^fãç¯ôŠææà‚ûä¤Âëä«ÂãŠáæàøç­êîŠçæÆç­êŠææ‚$fä¤Âôä ÂáŒçÜáä¤Âôç­‚À‚²æ碂üû‚üû‚壔”êŠææ‚üý‚ýä ©‚ÊËþÀ‚0f‚ÊËÌ磂Éç¢Ò¶æ‚Ø碂Ù碂¶æ碂çµã碕çæàƒç£ÿ‚üý‚ýä ¥‚ÊËþÀ‚0f‚çµãÃfãàà‚Ff‚üý‚ýä µ‚ÊËþÀ‚0f‚ÊËÌç ‚µæ‚çµãÃfãààƒç ÿ‚üý‚ýå µ§‚ÊËþÀ‚0f‚ÊËÌç¡‚Éç¢Ò²æ‚Ø碂û碕-æëŠçæø‚Ù碂²æ碂çµã碕çæà‚Æ‚ç²êØfãà‚ä±Âê碕çæ‚©æ•´æêÃfãà‚ÊËÌ箂Ø碂碕çæêä±Â‚Ù碂²æ碂ÊËÌç¡‚çµã碕çæà‚ûç²÷Øfãàøç²êç²áŠçæ‚8f粃ç®ÿ‚FfŠäæ‚üûƒç¡ÿ‚üýèéò€í¤¨ §ÅÄñÏŽ?i…éé€êª¨¹ŸèºìƒéïóòŸžú…÷šÓß×Ðú²³†¸ú÷ÝßÎèŸÍ›ù»›˜˜ú„…îï‹ô†ë¢®¦¡‹ÃÂ÷É‹†ì¬®¿™í© ‹õôôõ‘îœñ¸´¼»‘ÙØíÓ‘œö¶´¥ƒ÷³¦‘ïîß޺ŷړŸ—ºòóÆøº·ÝŸŽ¨ßÛ¹û^ÛØغÄŃ‚æ™ë†ÏÃËÌ殯š¤æëÁÃÒô€ÄÁ昙Œé–ä‰ÀÌÄÃé¡ •«éäŽÎÌÝûŽËÞÌé—–diMAINdÎϫԦ˂Ž†«ÕÔ !"st€ØúøðúëéuuDuDlCcGC uDC #12BCÇ×*2<ªä Þ  Ew²Úsuvwxz{}~€øøðøððððððððððððððððîîéîîîîîîðìÿ,0ý,H!K"@ñÿ"Normal3 ]a c"A@òÿ¡"Default Paragraph Font+@ò Endnote Text *@¢ Endnote Referenceh@ Footnote Text &@¢!
