I missed the closure of the meeting with the medical mystery fingernail gal....what was her surprise. Her website was closed.
Hi! Blessings to Messr. Cooper and all staff and family of the Anderson Cooper Show during the holiday season and all the new year through. Although I have watched the show numerous times since it began and have been touched by many stories, none has touched me as the one [1] today in regard to the young woman who is suffering from an ailment that has not yet been sufficiently diagnosed to the degree of this woman being healed/cured of her malady. With all that she has been through I can only share what I know with her. I have been blessed to witness and to be a recipient of many "miracles" from God. So, I KNOW that God can turn this around for her. Back in 1974 when I was a student in college, I got an unknown rash of some sort all over my chest area. I mentioned this to a friend who was a vegetarian and very health conscious. He made some "Chickweed" tea for me sweetened with a touch of brown sugar and shared his book "Back to Eden" by Jethro Kloss. Not only did I drink this tea, but I asked for a cotton ball and put it all over the affected area. I went home and went to bed. When I woke up and took my usual shower, I noticed that the "rash" whatever it was, was gone and my skin was clear and as smooth as a baby's. The rash was totally gone and never reappeared! While I don't profess to have a medical degree of any sort and am not in any way advising Ms. Isom to abandon her physicians' prescribed orders, I do submit this additional information i.e. Revelation 22:2 "In the midst [middle]of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there a tree of LIFE, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the LEAVES OF THE TREE were for the HEALING of the nations [MS.SHANYNA ISOM], Leviticus 17:14, [first clause] which states, "...For it is the LIFE of all flesh; the BLOOD it is for the life thereof. We are "flesh" and our "blood" carries life via oxygen and nutrients -- both of which we need to be healthy. Ezekiel 47:12, [last clause] states "... and the fruit thereof shall be for meat, and LEAF thereof for "MEDICINE." Chickweed Tea, has been mentioned on the Dr. Oz show and is known as a universal/versatile healing tea for numerous health concerns and has a mild taste. Golden Seal [also known as Bitter Root] tea is powerful and also has a reputation for "healing everything it touches", and as being a natural anti-biotic. It is a little expensive. Bloodroot Tea is good for skin diseases. All can be purchased at any health food store. My heart truly goes out to Ms. Isom. I hope that she and her mother reads this, studies this, checks the scriptures mentioned, gives one or all of the aforementioned teas a try [drink some and get a cotton ball and do a "patch" test on her arm or back]. Give it at least three[3] days to a week. As previously stated, I am truly concerned. I've used all the teas mentioned with success. The ball is now in her park. I also reiterate that I am not in any way suggesting that she abandon her doctors orders. In the meantime, know that I am interceding for her in prayer for her to receive a "miracle" God Bless! Respectfully. P.S. The teas are best w/o sugar.
Hi Anderson we all love u in Toronto what about the medicine that she got a alerect reaction to would they not be liable
Bacalhau, cod is the traditional Portuguese dinner on Christmas Eve. Well cooked it can be delicious with some olive oil and garlic.....mmmmm so good.
I love Anderson Cooper and sadened that his show has been cancelled. I a however, appalled at having Camille Grammer on the show to bash Kelsey Grammar with him not being able to defend. Where was Cooper to say "it takes two to tango". I am quite sure she is not all innocent in this split. Playing the poor housewife makes me sick....she didn't have any money when she met him, so just get a job and support yourself lady. But it looks as if she had enough money to get all the plastic surgery she obviously has had.....she looks very unhealthy. Not cool on Anderson's or the show producers to let her bash her ex from her perception and we all know they both are looking for people's sympathy.
Sorry for the misspelling of Shanyna Isom's name in my comment below.
Did Kelsey interrupt the show? It went off air on Fox 10 in Mobile, Alabama as the medical mystery young lady was beginning her interview with her mother...and is still off air @ 20 minutes later....curious if Kelsey Grammer has anything to do with it not airing?
I feel so badly for Shanya Isom. She deserves your attention and help. There should be financial provisions in place for people with rare undiagnosed conditions like this. Thanks for helping her. Please keep us posted on her progress.
On the other hand, Camille Grammer doesn't deserve your attention! I am very disappointed that Anderson encouraged her to air her dirty laundry in public. Kelsey Grammer had a bad track record before he married her, she knew what she was getting in to. Maybe if she moved out of Beverly Hills and cut back on her plastic surgery habit she would have enough money to buy her friends Christmas gifts!
No matter what Anderson says, I am sure Grammer makes more money on the Real Housewives show than most of us do that struggle day to day just to make ends meet. I have NO sympathy for her, she's a phoney, selfish, self-centered woman!
By the way, if she hates Kelsey Grammer so much why doesn't she stop using his name?
Anderson:
Just watched the segment of your show concerning the woman with a medical mystery. I commend you for helping her financial burdens and pray that her medical mystery will attract specialists in the autoimmune system to help this young lady have her health restored with therapeutic remedy. Her story reminded me of a medical mystery I once saw highlighted on the Discovery Channel's TLC years ago about a man called "The Tree Man." I am curious if the young woman's medical condition could be linked in anyway to Epidermodysplasia verruciformis (a.k.a., Lewandowsky-Lutz dysplasia or Lutz-Lewandowsky epidermodysplasia verruciformis), an extremely rare autosomal recessive genetic hereditary skin disorder? The condition was named after the physicians who first documented it, Felix Lewandowsky and Wilhelm Lutz.

Poor CAMILLE, Merry Christmas to you, think about someone that only has a pay of $25000.00 a year and receives no child support or alimony. Step in their shoes and then you can whine.
Anderson looking forward to your show, I enjoy the show very much, because one thing I have found out from watching you, you will cut anybody off when they come with disrespect or out right lying. Thank you for your honesty. Anderson I want you to know that everybody that has bi-polar is not crazy wrong word, I have not heard you refer to people as crazy with mentall illness. Now on the other hand If you don't take care of yourself you will loose your mind and may not get it back. I am bi-polar but I have been on medication since 1993 and I do very good takeing care of myself. So thats one of my reason for loving your show you never put people down you just tell it like it is, and I get a big laugh out of it. You are a good man. amen
Love your show
