Ezer Mizion Bone Marrow Registry:Yair and Ilai were a genetic match--the only genetic match among hundreds of thousands of potential donors.

 

The Mishori family finally met the man who saved their son Ilai's life. This is the kind of event that you can't speak about easily without sliding into clichés. That's because in this case, the cliché is the simple truth: There wasn't a dry eye in the room.

The first ones to arrive at Ezer Mizion's Guest Home for Children with Cancer in Petach Tikva were Ilai and his mother Dorli. The father, Ran, stayed home with fever. He wasn't feeling well, and did not want to endanger other children in the building whose immune system is compromised. Grandparents Bina and Benny Milner came along as reinforcements. Ilai, aged one year and nine months, pushed a carriage around, toddled here and there, and waded in the ball pit at the play center, not really aware of the tremendous excitement that surrounded him.

 

"Ilai doesn't understand what's going on so well, but I am very, very excited," said Dorli. "I cannot even begin to describe what a different place we were in just a year ago. The passing of a year is a real landmark, not only because we can finally meet the person who gave Ilai life, but also because it means that the transplant was a success," she said, choking up as she spoke. "I'm afraid to even say the words."

 

Yair Newman, the donor, who was anonymous to the Mishori family until the moment of the encounter, came to Ezer Mizion accompanied by his family. "All year long, I thought often about the child to whom I had donated my bone marrow. It just cannot be captured in words. Right now, my heart is beating hard," said Yair a few minutes before Ilai and his family entered the room where the moving encounter was to take place.

 

"The greatest gift you could give him - you already gave. Now, we have a gift for you," said Dorli after the first few minutes of the two families' meeting. She handed Yair an impressive book, home published, named "To my dear donor." The colorful pages and bright pictures documented and illustrated Ilai's life from his birth, through the time of his illness and until his recovery, thanks to Yair's bone marrow donation.

 

Gradually, the ice was broken. Yair took Ilai for a little walk through Ezer Mizion's on-site petting zoo. Ezer Mizion's Bone Marrow Donor Registry staff, along with Anat Yahel, the stem cell transplant coordinator at the Schneider children's hospital, looked on with interest and emotion from the side.

 

"We waited so much for this meeting," said Dorli. "All year long we thought about this moment. I hope that we will maintain contact with Yair, because now, he is really like a brother to Ilai."

 

The race against the illness: When Ilai was four and a half months old, he became ill with what looked then to be the flu. His body could not seem to shake the illness. He was hospitalized, but his condition continued to deteriorate into a serious case of pneumonia.

 

A bone marrow test confirmed the doctor's fears. Ilai was suffering from a very rare genetic illness called HLH - a blood disease which strikes only one in every 1.2 million. In the course of the disease, the body attacks itself and destroys the immune system. At the first stage, Ilai underwent a difficult series of chemotherapy treatments and steroid injections in order to achieve a hiatus in the course of the illness. But it was clear that only a bone marrow replacement could ensure that the illness would not return.

 

"There is nothing that can make your world collapse like such a situation," added the grandmother, Bina Milner. "We went through a very very hard time, but when the entire world is crumbling around you, what helped was the supportive family, a family that consisted of all those special people we met along the way - from the hospital and Ezer Mizion staff and volunteers and on to the bone marrow donor.

 

Enlisted for Life: A few years earlier, Yair Newman, then 19 years old, was hanging around with his friends in Jerusalem. "We were just before our army stint, and we were out for a stroll. I saw an Ezer Mizion stem cell donor recruitment station, part of a national campaign that was taking place that day. Without giving the matter much thought, I gave a blood sample," related Yair, surrounded by his family who accompanied him to the moving meeting. "I felt that I had to join the registry by giving a small blood sample. It seemed to me to be the right thing to do."

 

For four years, the data lay in the Ezer Mizion donor pool not matching any of the hundreds of patients who were searching our registry, until it became clear that Yair was a good match for a bone marrow transplant to Ilai.

 

"When Ezer Mizion's registry called me, I didn't even remember at first what they were talking about. But when they explained the matter to me, I agreed immediately to come down and give my stem cells," said Neuman, today a 24 year old resident of Beer Sheva. "I cannot describe in words the wonderful feeling it gives."

 

The process elicited a not very big test tube of bone marrow, which was then injected into the body of the baby, Ilai, who was already after a series of aggressive chemotherapy treatments meant to wipe out whatever was left of his own defective bone marrow. After two very difficult weeks, during which his body fought against the foreign bone marrow that had invaded it, his condition began to improve. "Those were the hardest weeks of the entire span of the illness," says Mishori. "But gradually, the blood counts went up, and Ilai began to feel better. Two months later, he came home. We have no way of thanking Yair and Ezer Mizion for saving Ilai's life!"

Smokey Bones #7618 (7,082 square feet)

12541 Jefferson Avenue, Jefferson Commons, Newport News, VA

 

This location opened in October 2005.

Ty & Jodi eloped in Vegas a few months back so they threw a party in Vancouver several months later. I took some snapshots. Johnny Wakeham played some tunes. Everyone got drunk, danced and made human pyramids. It was a good time.

There are 36 burial cairns in Sammallahdenmäki. The path to see some of these is c. 2km long.

There are two small and low cairns, one of these was investigated in 2002. A lot of burnt bone was found and many of the bones could be identified as human bones. Most of the pieces was from a scull. One complete finger bone was found. From this, a bone specialist was able to estimate that the buried person was approximately 20 years old, when he or she died. The burnt bone was also radiocarbon dated. According to the result, the burial cairn dates to the early Bronze Age, 1320-1000 BC.

The stone circles inside the cairn formed a spiral pattern. This pattern may have symbolized the sun.

You can take a map from the entrance to the path, that have the most interested cairns marked on it. But the map is not that good. It would be nice to have some signs at the cairns telling which of them you are looking at. Not all of them are recognizable.

Rauma, Sammallahdenmäki

Sling me under the sea.

Pack me down in the salt and wet.

No farmer’s plow shall touch my bones.

No Hamlet hold my jaws and speak

How jokes are gone and empty is my mouth.

Long, green-eyed scavengers shall pick my eyes,

Purple fish play hide-and-seek,

And I shall be song of thunder, crash of sea,

Down on the floors of salt and wet.

Sling me … under the sea.

The Bone Caves are a series of natural caves set into a high limestone cliff called Creag nan Uamh (Crag of the Caves). The caves are named for the large numbers of animal bones found during excavations.

There are four main cave openings in the cliffs, formed before the last ice age by water dissolving limestone in cracks in the surrounding rock. Subsequent glacial action and erosion of the glen by water left the caves hundreds of feet above the valley floor.

There is no indication that the caves were ever used as human habitat, but two separate human burials have been discovered within the caves.

In total, over 1000 pieces of reindeer antler have been found in the Bone Caves, with dates ranging from 47,000 to 8,300 years ago.

One rare find was the skull of a Northern lynx, dated to 1,770 years ago. This is the only Northern lynx ever found in Scotland. Other intriguing remains include a possible polar bear, arctic fox, wolf, and brown bear.

Finds from the caves are kept at the Royal Museum of Scotland in Edinburgh. (Above Information Off Google)

Roll on Rock on

Raw Bones

Well I still got all the rythmn

in these Rockin' Bones.

 

I wanna leave a happy memory When I go,

I wanna leave something To let the whole world know,

That the rock in roll daddy has A done passed on,

but my bones Will keep a rockin' long after I've gone

 

Roll on, Rock on, Raw Bones,

Well I still got all the rythm

in these Rockin' Bones

 

Well when I die don't you bury Me at all,

Just nail my bones up on The wall,

Beneath these bones let These words be seen,

"This is the Bloody gears of a Boppin' machine"

 

Roll on, Rock on, Raw Bones,

Well I still got all the rythmn

in these Rockin' Bones

 

And I worry about tomorrow just Thinkin' about tonight,

My bones are Getting restless and I do it up right,

A few more times around a hardwood Floor,

Before we turn off the lights and Close the door.

 

Roll on, Rock on, Raw Bones,

Well I still got all the rythmn

in these Rockin' Bones

There's just something so beautiful yet deadly about sugar skull make-up.

 

The main reason I finally got down to doing it was for Halloween - but after arriving home, I couldn't just take off all of my hard work without taking some good pictures of it. But it was night-time, and I don't own a decent flash... and sleeping with all of that on was not a good idea. So I just ended up experimenting with my mirror light in my dark room which really allowed for some dramatic lighting.

I believe this is a bone bead. Looks African to me. It's a good spinner, even though the bead is not centered perfectly.

The catacombs under Paris. Those are skulls and bones in a decorative pattern.

My result for a new tutorial that I just tried. What do you think? I forgot to tag it, so DON'T STEAL!!

Olympus E-PL1

The floor of the bath house at Wrest Park is made up of cobbles encased in a circle of bones.

Roasted for 20 minutes at 230C.

Added some chopped sweet basil, garlic and lemon zest at the last minute or so.

you can see just how large of an area of skull I lost. the swelling was due to medical packing under the skin absorbing CSF. Turns out that once I got a plate put in, the CSF was no longer being absorbed normally, resulting in a bad case of hydrocephalus. i have since received a VP cerebral shunt to correct the problem.
