Dear Mei,

I cannot begin to express my appreciation and gratitude for your caring and expertise over the past year. After I was diagnosed with ALS last year, my speech, mobility, motor skills, and, most recently, my ability to swallow have all deteriorated at varying rates. I have received excellent traditional Western medical and therapeutic care for these conditions, yet throughout my illness I have found your acupuncture treatments to be among the most effective and comforting therapies I receive. Your ability to literally stimulate my speech and muscles back into action and relieve many of the discomforts associated with this disease is amazing and leaves me eagerly anticipating our next session each and every week.

As much as I benefited from your treatments physically, I would be remiss if I didn’t also thank you for the extreme kindness, genuine compassion, and emotional support you have also provided over the course of our relationship. The simplest touch of your hands has a calming and reassuring effect on me as I face this difficult and terrifying disease, and it is for this that I cannot thank you enough. In you I consider myself fortunate to have found that rarest of individuals---a true and dedicated healer.

Thank you again for everything you have done for me and my family.

With deep gratitude,

Barbara Lyon
