Hi Tom,

Just wanted to keep in touch. It was nice seeing everyone in Atlanta. As you probably know , I’m not one to talk to much about patients we see. But today was a day,for me ,worth sharing. Had a 9yr old boy with pretty severe asthma. Parents drove over 6 hours to get to the office on Friday. Pretty much stuff as you would expect, on 2 drugs, and his steroid puffer(3-5 x a day). Consistent cough with any activity and every night almost all night long, for almost 4years. Would try to play different sports but within a few minutes of increased activity wheezing for air. Any type of increased activity even just walking up steps would bring on asthma attack. His face and body had that real puffy steroid look. Took Blair x-rays did chiro exam. X-rays showed 2c PRI , 1c ASR, was in a pattern, half inch short right leg, right head tilt. He has been adjusted off and on most of his life with full spine adjustments. I adjusted Axis and Atlas then rested him for about an hour. Post scan was a mirror image scan. Short leg down to less than a quarter inch. His Grandparents live in the Quad Cities so they spent the night there. I saw him on Sunday afternoon. No coughing at all,even all night long, didn’t need to use his puffer after waking up, ( a daily thing). He also went out and played football out in the back yard with his brothers , cousins, aunts, and uncles before coming out. No wheezing , coughing or loss of breath at all. Scans showed not in pattern, legs even, head tilt pretty much not present. Parents went home that night very happy about there son great one day progress. They decided to have him stay here and Grandparents would bring him out to office today to get checked one more time and then Grandparents would take him back home to Kentucky. Today’s visit, Grandparents said absolutely no coughing or asthma attacks at all. He also had his Grandparents take him to a skateboard park to play Sunday night and then this morning before coming out. They said they couldn’t say no because they had never gotten to see him play anything over the last few years without having an attack and getting sick and having to stop. Check show a very nice straight clear scan, legs balanced,  head , shoulders , pelvis all level. I ask the little boy how he was feeling now. He said It is real nice to feel like a real person again and said thanks for helping him get better and then jumped up into the air and yelled I feel great! That’s when the tears came out of my eyes. It was just one of those moments when there is nothing better in life than,see how innate can re- create a little persons life in just an instant in time from a split second adjustment.. So I just wanted to say thank you to you for helping me to learn how to do the Blair work over the past few years. Thanks!!! Now I know that I do not do the healing but that a higher power does that when there is no interference, but man does it make a person feel that all the other crap we sometimes have to put up with is all worth it to see great things like this happen and to just be a small part of it. Oh and by the way, his Step dad got a set of x-rays and adjusted ASL while the little boy was resting. He has had severe left arm pain and complete numbness in his left pointer finger for almost over a year. After his rest period he sat up and exclaimed that the pain in his left arm was completely gone and he had complete feeling in his pointer finger. All on Saturday, not to bad for a day I don’t work on!
