  • COVID-19 Vaccine Plan

    Let me start by saying I had no question in my mind that I would get vaccinated for COVID-19. I wasn’t sure when or which vaccine, but I have family I can only visit by plane (driving from coast to… Continue reading

  • Slow Motion Replay

    I have now taken 12 doses of disulfiram at 62.5 mg one time per week. Taking it at such a low dose and so far apart, has allowed me to watch what happens after each dose. I chose this method… Continue reading
