Jamie’s progress

Jamie’s progress
This year saw stellar progress in music, with grade 7 piano and grade 5 double bass and organ being achieved. Admission to Junior Trinity at the prestigious Trinity Laban school of music in Greenwich took place in September, with great results.
Jamie has also done extremely well at school as the results below show. Biomedical treatment has taken a bit of a back seat due to lack of funds and new discoveries, and the cause of the abnormal autonomic tests remains elusive.
January: Begins homeopathic treatment for viruses: immediate effect is a
huge poo of undigested food.
February: Physical progress on homeopathic treatment such as reduced
facial contortions
School teaching assistant reports greater calmness and
concentration
March: Blood test reveals high antibodies against Epstein-Barr and
aspergillis: valacyclovir and more itraconazole prescribed
