Subject: CJD CONFERENCE REPORT July 7-10, 2006
Date: October 23, 2006 at 7:40 pm PST
The 4th Annual CJD Foundation Family Conference was held in Washington D.C. at the Washington Court Hotel on July 7-10, 2006. Grants from the CDC, Pall Medical, Oddessy Health Care and a record breaking attendance made this years’ event our most successful.
We began with an informal reception Friday evening which offered family members and scientists the opportunity to renew old acquaintances or begin new friendships. Meeting in this way gave our families the chance to share their stories of love and loss in an informal environment. Representatives from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the National Institutes of Health, the Food and Drug Administration and the Department of Defense also attended as our guests.
Saturday morning opened with a Memorial Service at which 52 loved ones who had died of CJD were remembered. Each name was read as a flower was placed in a vase. The vase then remained at the front of the room during the entire conference. Many thanks go to Tracy Kedzierski, Ana Betro and Wanda Culp-Lias for creating such a beautiful tribute to those whom we miss. The day continued with ten presentations by the following scientists:
Bernardino Ghetti, M.D., Distinguisher Professor, Indiana University
Pierluigi Gambetti, M. D., Director, National Prion Disease Pathology Surveillance Center
Robert Will, M. D., Professor of Neurology, University of Edinburgh, UK
Neil Cashman, M.D., Brain Research Centre, University of British Columbia
Richard Knight, M.D., Director, National CJD Surveillance Unit, UK
David Kocisko, Ph.D., NIH Laboratory of Persisten Viral Diseases
James Sejvar, M.D., Neuroepidemiologist, CDC
Michael Geschwind, M.D., Ph.D. Memory and Aging Center, University of California
Gene Major, Ph.D. National Insititute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke
Joseph Cervia, M.D., FACP, FAAP, Pall Medical
For information about the specific presentations, please contact the CJD Foundation.
Our annual banquet was help on Saturday evening. Tom Sheridan, president of The Sheridan Group was our guest speaker. The CJD Foundation is most appreciative for Tom’s continued support and enthusiasm as he encourages us in the work we carry out on Capitol Hill.
Engraved crystal awards were presented to Tom and to Dr. Gambetti as a token of our gratitude for their dedication to our work.
Following her report on the work and life of the CJD Foundation, president Florence Kranitz was also presented with a gift for her leadership, passion and the tireless hours she has dedicated to the Foundation. Wanda Culp-Lias ended the evening with her own rendition of “We Shall Overcome”.
Sunday morning we introduced our Medical Education DVD, “Confronting CJD and Other Prion Disorders.” Florence explained the reasons this project was undertaken and how it has been used thus far. The DVD was shown to the conference participants. It can be viewed on line at http://www.smbs.buffalo.edu/cme/cjd/ .
Tracy Kedzierski followed with a report about the CJD Foundation Family Questionnaire which she works tirelessly at conducting.
Pat Lillquist, Ph.D., of the New York State Department of Health reported on the surveillance and education concerning CJD that is carried out in New York State.
Deana Simpson, RN, Founder and Director of CJD Insight offered an excellent presentation of the history of CJD and encouragement for those struggling with the reality of CJD.
Don Simms of Belfast, Northern Ireland, father of Jonathan, Belfast Northern Ireland shared the powerful story of the journey his family has taken over the last five years. Hos DVD presentation outlined the facts in a dramatic DVD rendition of his fight for the right to usepentosan polysulpahte as a treatment for his then 17 year old son diagnosed with variant CJD. Jonathan is still alive five years after treatment began making him the longest living CJD patient. A father’s commitment and a son’s struggle for life were vividly presented.
During lunch on Sunday there was a special meeting for family members coping with familial CJD. Eighteen people attended and were encouraged to share their stories, concerns, questions and hopes. Our thanks to Deana Simpson for moderating the meeting and to Dr. Gambetti for offering to attend and act as advisor to this group. At the request of all who attended, we are planning to include this event again next year. From this initial meeting it was decided that Deana would host an online support group twice a month for those affected by fCJD. She hosted the first very successful group last week.
Our friends from “down under” were, as always, a welcome addition to the conference. Suzanne Solvyns, Carol Wilson and Mandy Newton offered a report on the activities of the CJD Support Group Network in Australia. They are growing considerably and are conducting more meetings in each state of Australia as well as hosting fund raising events.
Dr. Muneto Ueda, Chairman of the CJD Support Network in Japan attended this year’s conference for the first time and brought a group of four other Japanese colleagues with him. Dr. Ueda’s very comprehensive and moving presentation focused on the cases of iatrogenic CJD. In Japan the risk of iatrogenic transmission from CJD contaminated dura mater transplants is 1 in 100,000.
Ruthie George, volunteer Treasurer of the CJD Foundation reported on the “State of Affairs” of the Foundation. Her report included financials, statistics, fund raising events and other fund raising activities of the CJD Foundation.
Following a short break Linda Gregson, Executive Director of the CJD Foundation discussed grief work after a loss to CJD. Not only were symptoms of grief discussed but the common expectations during the first 3-4 years after a loss.
The formal conference concluded with an excellent Advocacy Training Session led by Rhonda Rutledge, a family member and Rick Dearborn, Chief of Staff for Senator Jeff Sessions, AL. Together they were able to help each of us understand the process of political advocacy, visits and provided tools to help make these visits successful. Monday morning many family members participated in visits to their representatives on Capitol Hill. From the evaluations, this day was very successful. For a list of the congressional requests, please go to CJD Foundation website home page and click on Advocacy and then Current Year.

Greetings Voice,
i send this 'CJD Foundation Questionnaire' and ask the group, what they suppose will be found out with this ???
with this questionnaire, in my opinion, they don't want to know what/where the routes and sources of CJDs in theUSA are coming from. NO WONDER they said i was interfering with there research, there research consist of _not_ finding out anything other than how it was diagnosed.
you folksjudge for yourself. maybe i'm just being an extremist as some say???
then again, maybe not...TSS

Greetings again CJD Voice,
NOW, compare to the CJD questionnaire i sent through, and ask yourself why they ask me to remove this from internet? better yet, ask yourself why the CJD Foundationin fact did remove my questionnaire from their message board? what is it they are so afraid of that we may find out?

hi Tracie,
doing fine, thank you. about the questionnaire? by no means am i trying to step on Dr Gambetti's toes here. i think there is more to it than just reporting a case. we _must_ find the source and route of spordic CJDs, and i think a great deal of it will be from the medical/surgical arena. i just want a questionnaire made up for _all_ victims of human TSEs in the USA in _every_ state, and i want it reportable in _every_ state. i am turning the heat up. ****, i'm getting old and grey, i want to see it done before i die. will be sending this out to many media and papers and requesting them to turn the heat up on the Gov. you will be able to keep up with the ones coming through the voice and if i get some that have not come through the list, i will pass on to Dr. Gambetti if he likes. i respect Dr. Gambetti very much and would do nothing to hender his work or yours. i just think that this is too important of a matter not to have one. and i think by turning the heat up, getting to the media and pressing there buttons a bit, just might help this get done a bit faster... hope so anyway...
kindest regards,
terry

Hi Terry,
How are you? I'm just curious about your Questionnaire ?
It just was posted on the Foundation's Message Board without any introduction... and I was a bit concerned as it may cause some confusion with the Surveillance Project I'm doing via the Foundation for Dr Gambetti. Could you let me know?
Tracie
Greetings again Voice,
just what is the _new_ CJD Foundations goals witha CJD Questionnaire that asks _no_
questions about soure/route of the six variants of sporadic CJDs???
=================================================
i am reminded of a few things deep throat told me years ago;
=================================================
The most frightening thing I have read all day is the report of Gambetti's finding of a new strain of sporadic cjd in young people......... Dear God, what in the name of all that is holy is that!!! If the US has different strains of scrapie..... why???? than the UK... then would the same mechanisms that make different strains of scrapie here make different strains of BSE... if the patterns are different in sheep and mice for scrapie..... could not the BSE be different in the cattle, in the mink, in the humans....... I really think the slides or tissues and everything from these young people with the new strain of sporadic cjd should be put up to be analyzed by many, many experts in cjd........ bse..... scrapie
Scrape the damn slide and put it into mice..... wait..... chop up the mouse brain and and spinal cord........ put into some more mice..... dammit amplify the thing and start the damned research..... This is NOT rocket science... we need to use what we know and get off our butts and move.... the whining about how long everything takes..... well it takes a whole lot longer if you whine for a year and then start the research!!!
Not sure where I read this but it was a recent press release or something like that: I thought I would fall out of my chair when I read about how there was no worry about infectivity from a histopath slide or tissues because they are preserved in formic acid, or formalin or formaldehyde..... for God's sake........ Ask any pathologist in the UK what the brain tissues in the formalin looks like after a year....... it is a big fat sponge... the agent continues to eat the brain ...... you can't make slides anymore because the agent has never stopped........ and the old slides that are stained with Hemolysin and Eosin...... they get holier and holier and degenerate and continue... what you looked at 6 months ago is not there........ Gambetti better be photographing every damned thing he is looking at.....
Okay, you need to know. You don't need to pass it on as nothing will come of it and there is not a damned thing anyone can do about it. Don't even hint at it as it will be denied and laughed at.......... USDA is gonna do as little as possible until there is actually a human case in the USA of the nvcjd........ if you want to move this thing along and shake the earth.... then we gotta get the victims families to make sure whoever is doing the autopsy is credible, trustworthy, and a saint with the courage of Joan of Arc........ I am not kidding!!!! so, unless we get a human death from EXACTLY the same form with EXACTLY the same histopath lesions as seen in the UK nvcjd........ forget any action........ it is ALL gonna be sporadic!!! And, if there is a case....... there is gonna be every effort to link it to international travel, international food, etc. etc. etc. etc. etc. They will go so far as to find out if a sex partner had ever traveled to the UK/europe, etc. etc. .... It is gonna be a long, lonely, dangerous twisted journey to the truth. They have all the cards, all the money, and are willing to threaten and carry out those threats.... and this may be their biggest downfall...
Thanks as always for your help. (Recently had a very startling revelation from a rather senior person in government here.......... knocked me out of my chair........ you must keep pushing. If I was a power person.... I would be demanding that there be at least a million bovine tested as soon as possible and agressively seeking this disease. The big players are coming out of the wood work as there is money to be made!!!
In short: "FIRE AT WILL"!!! for the very dumb.... who's "will"! "Will be the burden to bare if there is any coverup!"
again it was said years ago and it should be taken seriously.... BSE will NEVER be found in the US!
As for the BSE conference call... I think you did agreat service to freedom of information and making some people feign integrity... I find it scary to see that most of the "experts" are employed by the federal government or are supported on the "teat" of federal funds. A scary picture! I hope there is a confidential panel organized by the new government to really investigate this thing.
You need to watch your back........ but keep picking at them....... like a buzzard to the bone... you just may get to the truth!!! (You probably have more support than you know. Too many people are afraid to show you or let anyone else know. I have heard a few things myself... you ask the questions that everyone else is too afraid to ask.)
================================================
greetings again voice,
then i remind everyone to read this;
'As implied in the Inset 25 we must not assume that transmission of BSE to other species will invariably present pathology typical of a scrapie-like disease.'

Tissue infectivity and strain typing of the many variants Manuscript of the human and animal TSEs are paramount in all variants of all TSE. There must be a proper classification that will differentiate between all these human TSE in order to do this. With the CDI and other more sensitive testing coming about, I only hope that my proposal will some day be taken seriously. ...
