I Was My Own First Case Study. (n=1)
Early in my advocacy, I was working with terminal cardiovascular cases — people whose doctors had exhausted every medical and surgical option. They were being sent for stem cell treatment as a last resort, and I had three months with each person before they traveled. I used that time to prepare them. Mind and body. Everything the research supported.
Then one day, the medical director of the treating clinic called me. He said, “Dori, we have a game here called Guess the Coordinator. Your people are different. They’re happier when they arrive. They do better. Their results hold over time. We can identify your cases before we even open the file. We want to know what you’re doing.”
What I was doing wasn’t complicated. I was taking seriously what the field had largely ignored: that the biological environment someone arrives in shapes how well their body responds to treatment. Optimize that environment first, and the cells have a fighting chance to do everything the science says they can.
I had three heart attacks. Eighteen cardiologists. No diagnosis was made. I became my own study of one — tracking, documenting, forming a hypothesis about what was happening in my body. The medical establishment had no name for it. Years later, peer-reviewed research confirmed what I had identified on my own.
I built Immortal Me+ because everything I’ve gleaned from thousands of conversations should not be a secret.
I’m a scientist, inventor, author, and patent holder — a wife of 45 years, mother of three, and grandmother of nine. I once wanted to be a veterinarian. I chose marriage and children instead.
