2009 is dedicated to the life and work of one of the most wonderful people I have ever known, Christine Maggiore.

I knew this beautiful soul. She was forever beaming with love, support, and hope, and as ray of light appears in the snow, she is now shining down on us from heaven, where if you listen real close, to the rainbows that occasionally sing through a rainstorm of God's tears, at those unique times where the morning dew pays no regard to being walked all over it, and the leaf that hosted it gladly always knew what made it moist, suddenly, as time slowly goes by, it disappears, as you think you hear the sun rise, as it always does, and you hear Christine say, 

Outtake of Dec 19 email from
Christine to un-named recipient:

Regarding my health, I finally figured out what’s going on…but it got really scary. Here’s the scoop I just sent a friend:I have been through the absolute worst health nightmare ever. The cleanse, while definitely bringing about some profound benefits, left me feeling weak and dehydrated. I lost my appetite almost completely about 10 days ago and for some weird reason could only tolerate hot tea and hot chicken broth.

I had been in touch with the cleanse doc who said all was typical, uncomfortable but typical. Not one to quit, I kept going. Then I started to have trouble breathing, I was feeling winded after the most simple task like making the bed. This last Sunday, I stopped being able to sleep at all.

So finally, genius that I am, I made an appointment to see my MD who is really smart and very well versed in natural health care and not at all into the HIV paradigm.I could only get in to see her yesterday. She said I was totally dehydrated and having a reaction to the herbs in the cleanse which she thought were suspicious. I asked her to check my lungs and she said they sounded clear. I told her I thought I should have a chest Xray anyway, just to be sure, but she was skeptical because I hadn’t had a
cold, flu, cough or fever. But I insisted so she wrote me up to go to a radiology place that would give an immediate reading.

By then I felt so ill I had to ask my neighbor to drive me and thank god he was there with me because I never would have made it to the radiologist without his help. As it turned out, the Xray showed a very serious case of bi-lateral bronchial pneumonia. The doctor immediately gave me IV rehydration, IV natural cortisone, and IV antibiotic. She said if I did not improve by the next day, I would have to go to the hospital which I argued would give me worse treatment, lousy food and maybe a MRS infection as a parting gift.

I went back again today, had more IV treatments and she said if I can make it through the weekend without having to go to the hospital, she will be very happy. She also said I’m pretty tough to have had such severe pneumonia and keep going. I have three natural cortisone treatments I am to take everyday, and today I started with another antibiotic called
Z pack which is different from the one used in the IV. It’s a little scary because she asked me if I am allergic to the antibiotics she’s giving me but I’ve never taken them, so I don’t know. She stayed next to me during the IV antibiotic to make sure I was not going into reaction which sort of
made me feel like I might be having a reaction! But I didn’t and I slept for the first time since Sunday last night.My appetite is getting back to normal and I am on total bed rest for two weeks. I can’t imagine doing otherwise.

The Science Guardian takes on the sudden death of a legend

Even a dedicated "dissident" basher gives praise!

"It's like we were visited by the HIVPD"

What killed Christine?  It wasn't HIV

Celia Farber { 01.01.09 at 2:34 pm }

Consider the very esprit of this class act sentence: "Plus, he was an AIDS denialist."

Just as there is no such thing as a "nigger" there is no such thing as an "AIDS denialist" other than a measure of hate, fear, phobia, and primitivism in the heart of whoever used the word. If those who take the position that the HIV/AIDS theory is whistle-clean, functioning, consistent, and solid were so sure they were right, they’d obviously not have to descend to the use of a de-humanizing spray-button that does the work, through prejudice and fear, that they don’t want to burden their actual souls with.

If you go to www.aidsmythexposed.com, you can see for yourself hundreds of people around the world who write in discuss with one another the intense journey of being HIV positive, marked for death, and trying to find ways to strengthen the body, cast off the death sentence, transcend the stigma, survive the hate they encounter when friends and loved ones discover they don’t believe HIV necessarily will kill them, make the right choices about treatment vs. non treatment, and most importantly, how to become and remain human in the face of such overwhelming hatred–the kind that flashed in Scott’s comments. 

In all diseases, people take different routes. In all diseases, people factor in the deeper reasons why they got sick, how the mind affects the illness, how to walk the line between toxic treatments that "work" and those that do not. 

Nobody denies the existence of AIDS–a fairly crude word used to describe an array of problems that arise when the body becomes weakened and depleted, and immunity is lowered. Speaking for myself, after 22 years, I am still unclear what the definition IS.

When Christine’s daughter E.J. died, after a flu, with her eyes open, in cardiac arrest, after a short but healthy life, after taking an antibiotic, and with an immune system that was intact, as measured by her high level of total lymphocyte counts, (between 10,000 and 14,000) and no HIV positive test result (her blood was corrupted) and when her older brother tests negative to this day (would HIV skip one child and infect only the second one?) and when Christine dies in her sleep after a short battle with bronchial pneumonia and nothing at all is known about her immune system status, I simply have to say that I am very confused about what it means anymore to say that a person died of "AIDS."

AIDS, when I began writing about it, in 1986, was a slow, extreme, devastating disease, that did not strike people dead all of a sudden like this. It took time. It took time to develop opportunistic infections (Christine, in 16 years, never had one,) the collapse of the immune system was slow, and the illnesses that manifested were fairly consistent.

When detractors of AIDS skeptics shout "AIDS!" at every turn, they are just reinforcing their superstitious, sloppy, unscientific, and non-rational approach to a profoundly complex set of medical questions.

An honest person might say: If E.J. had an intact immune system, by WHO standards (total lymphocyte count) and never tested positive, then we can’t say she died of AIDS, even if we hate her mother. 

About Christine, an honest person would say: "I will refrain from comment, no matter how much the urge to lord my superior morality and intellect overwhelms me, until I have some information about her immune system, lymphocyte counts, CD4 cells,  exact cause of death, etc. " This would show the rest of us that the person does not wish to win dishonestly, but wishes for truth. It would also suggest an absence of malice.

Now, regarding the credibility of LA Country Coroner James Ribe, I am staggered by Scott’s comment. Scott, you must not have made yourself aware of the fact that Ribe is a widely discredited coroner against whom a massive, bulging dossier of complaints, lawsuits, etc, exists, and who has been shamed repeatedly in and out of court, including having to admit that he made egregious errors in autopsies that sent innocent parents to prison who were later released when the cases were re-examined. Christine used to call me and tell me about these shocking violations Ribe had committed, and being Christine, she never said anything without documenting it first. 

Ribe was scheduled to be cross-examined within two days of Christine’s death, in a lawsuit the family had brought against the LA County Coroner’s office, for their gross mismanagement in the handling of E.J.’s autopsy. Two short facts: The first autopsy found no cause of death. When Ribe was brought in, it took him a few months to construct an "AIDS" death for Eliza Jane.  That secondary interpretation, which drove Christine’s critics so wild with lust, was actually handed over to the L.A. Times before it was given to Christine and Robin. Yes I am serious. Christine got a call from an L.A. Times reporter who asked her to comment on her daughter’s death from AIDS. She said: "I don’t even know what you are talking about."

It would be days before the family got their own copy.

If that, to you, does not reek of foul play, if that is what respectability looks like, then I suggest you are overly devoted to your guiding ideologies and can’t think straight.

As a gay man who waded through the sewers of the corrupt HIV Industry for 6 years,I was the good little gay boy who did everything they told me and I have denounced the so-called Gay Community on the basis of a born again cult. The Gay Industry has definitely $old gay men out. [HIV] has become self identification in the Western World where [HIV] dresses in drag and carries a nice little rainbow sticker next to picture of the well chiseled jock.

Unlike GBLT in the USA,Africans are isolated by the phoney construct of AIDS delivered by Political Denialism,those politicians who have murdered the Continent by pharmaceutical drug dealers.

Christine Maggiore was a vessel of truth, a light that embraced GBLT and a thorn for those who opposed,say what you want,think what you
want, blog all you want but at least wait for the facts to come out before
you begin your genocidal block party.
