Except that for the first time in human history almost all women survive childbirth and almost all babies survive infancy. Three of my grandmother’s seven siblings survived to adulthood (and then very old age). My grandmother's siblings died of diarrhea as infants or toddlers. My husband’s grandmother’s family’s experience was similar, a sister and a brother died before they were two, apparently of pneumonia ,and a brother passed as a teenager because he “didn't sweat.”

Those grandmothers had a grandson who suffered from illnesses twice during infancy that would have taken him in their day. The grandson was hospitalized three times as a baby. The first time he was on a respirator for RSV pneumonia, a serious illness for which there is no vaccine. The second time was for treatment Rotaviurs. Rotavrius is a diarrheal illness that even today is a killer in the third world. Without IV fluids, there is no doubt at all that Rotavirus would have killed that lucky boy.

If you met the 14 year old grandson today he would appear indistinguishable from any other boy his age. But he is different, to control his asthma (an autoimmune disease) he requires daily medication, his skin occasionally develops serious infections which require antibiotics and when he gets sick he gets very sick.

What cause the boy’s asthma? His survival. That’s what’s different now. We are living on a spot in human history which has never been enjoyed before.

I should have included you two on the address line for post 21 on this thread. There are some with lupus using the Marshall Protocol with success. Since asthma is also a TH-1/auto-immune disease, the MP should also work, but I don't know that anybody has tried the MP specifically for asthma.

TH1 refers to a cytokine profile indicating intra-cellular infection, rather than inter-cellular. This is a more accurate description of what the diseases MP addresses, than is auto-immune, which I understand can be a clinical, symptom based diagnosis rather than based on any positive identification.
