For over 30 years a treatment for spinal cord injuries has been used in many parts of the world. This procedure is called Omental Transposition. Omental Transposition has been generally ignored in the United States. This site provides the opportunity for you to read studies involving Omental Transposition from research on animals to articles written about those who have benefitted from this surgery. Omental Transposition pioneer, Harry Goldsmith, M.D., is still practicing this procedure today. Read the information provided here and make up your own mind. All we ask is that you keep an open mind and remember that in this day and age of the instant cure, we are dealing with one of the most violent injuries that the body endures. Logic tells us that we cant expect a pill or potion to repair this type of injury. Omental Transposition doesn't present some magical cure, it only gives hope to those who still have the desire to get better!

A POSSIBLE CURE FOR ALZHEIMER'S PATIENTS?
In the November 8, 1998 Parade Magazine the following information was written by Carol Kahn. This web site is dedicated to presenting information in an unbiased and honest fashion. We feel that each of you should be able to make up your own mind about each new research finding as it is presented. It still can be frustrating to those of us who are truly passionate about finding cures, that the so called "experts" seem to be running away from what appears to be the right path so as to not interfere with their current "fund raising" programs. Please read the following and tell us what you think.
"One of the most intriguing cases presented at the International Conference on Alzheimer's Disease, held last summer in Amsterdam, involved a 65-year old minister's wife from Corpus Christi, Tex., with severe brain atrophy who could no longer speak or feed herself. She was operated on by Dr. Harry S. Goldsmith of the University of Nevada School of Medicine, who developed a procedure that improves short-term memory by surgically using the omentum, a biochemical-rich membrane in the abdomen, and placing it, while still attached, on the brain. (An autopsy on a previous patient showed that plaques in the brain had been reduced by the prcedure.) Now, just six months after the operation, the Texas women is more alert, says a few words and sings along with hymns, according to her daughter. "These are little things, but at this stage you take what you can get, and you cherish it," says her daughter."
We feel this is very exciting. As mentioned this appeared in Parade Magazine. It also is interesting that in the entire article this was the only procedure that didn't include any new "drug", but produced the largest noticeable results. What do you think?
