View this page "Traditional Healing and Post-Combat PTSD"

[Lewis Mehl-Madrona]

Dear Colleagues,

I've added Linda Larkey to our group from the University of Arizona.
Linda and I are going to work with Jeannette to submit a grant
proposal originating from the University of Arizona to study
traditional healing. I'm going to try to get an appointment at the
University of Arizona, where I used to work, to facilitate this.

I'm posting this page because we should keep in mind that we might be
able to get funding through the military -- either Canadian or
American. And perhaps to explore how traditional healing would help
non-aboriginal people as well. And perhaps PTSD would be more timely
than diabetes or depression.

Does anyone know Dr. Gillies at the VA Medical Center -- Albuquerque?
Would anyone have time to try to track him down? Also, could anyone
look for requests for proposals for PTSD and/or combat-returning vets.

I'd like to try work this effort into high gear now and get funding.

Lewis,

After you took off from the spirituality conference I had a chance to
get to know Hillary Weaver a bit. She was the key note speaker and is
an aboriginal woman who has a track record of health research with
aboriginal people. She has an excellent tracj record - and has been
special consultant at the UN. She said she was interested in the
diabetes study and I offered to send the current draft to her. She is at
the U. of Buffalo.

I also say that we can do PTSD thru the military and still do the
diabetes. Doing both in one proposal may be too much.

No, definitely, I would not want to do both in the same proposal.  I'm thinking of separate venues, of possibly looking into military funding as well as federal money (NIH, CIHR).

Are you going to contact her or should I?

I sent her an email with a preliminary graft. Let's wait and see what
she says.
