Dr. Oz,
My name is Brian Epstein and I am from Toronto, Canada.
I just watched your show on Oprah (today being, Tuesday, March 24th).
On the show, you talked about cell regeneration and extending life.
My friend's father is 78 years old. 8 months ago, he was diagnosed with bladder cancer. It has since spread to the liver and the doctors have said that it is terminal.
Given what you talked about today, I am wondering if there is anyone or organization (hospitals) that I could (or the family contact) to find possible procedures that may lengthen his life.
I hope that you can respond in a timely fashion. My phone number is 416-654-9027 or my cell phone 647-938-9027 (feel free to leave a detailed voice mail as no one else will hear the message as I live by myself).
My e-mail address is

I am concerned that not enough people have commented on Oprah's Dr. Oz forum page. I just visited the site to make sure that the comment I wrote last night was approved by the monitor and posted - and their are only 34 comments!
I remember someone saying that Dr. Oz wanted to see how many emails or letters he would get about the topic after his radio show to base whether or not he would try to get Oprah to do an TV show on Lyme.Maybe people are writing letters/emails directly to Dr. Oz and/or Oprah, but if the low number of comments on Oprah's "community forum" is any indication of the number of letters going directly to them, then we are in trouble...I personally wrote a direct letter to Dr. Oz and then posted almost the same letter on the community forum page.
There are thousands of us chronic Lyme patients! This is our biggest and best opportunity to get massive media attention, but I feel we have to convince them with numbers - that this is a huge problem that deserves their attention.
As we all know, Oprah and her show is no stranger to personal tragedies, but I believe it is the number of our tragedies that will most influence their willingness to give us a forum.I don't want to see this opportunity pass us by - as there probably won't be another train coming by like Oprah's for a long time...
