George Jelinek is a doctor, based in Western Australia, who has been recognised for his expertise in emergency medicine. He saw his mother succumb to MS over many years and was himself diagnosed with it at the age of 45. Following this, George set out to find a better way to deal with MS than was currently available. He scoured the medical literature, the Internet and the popular press. He re-assessed his life, relationships and spirituality.
Quoting from the foreword, written by Ian Gawler,
"This is a comprehensive, well-documented book that is full of good science. It is written in plain English in a way that makes
that science readily available and understandable to the lay public, yet detailed enough for those with more scientific training.....George....has added the solid science and the cool reason of the researcher to the highly focused and passionate need of the patient. That is why this is such and important work."
It contains a great deal about natural therapies, as well as conventional medical therapies and somediet and lifestyle recommendations. The chapter on the best ways to find further information through the Internet, books and groups, is full of helpful advice. Highly recommended foranyone who has been touched by MS.
