Why, once triggered, must an autoimmune response remain in the “on” position? If it is true that all the cells in your body renew themselves every 7 years why would that exclude cells impacted by my illness? Why, once an autoimmune reaction is triggered, can’t it be reversed?

		<description><![CDATA[I started this blog post a week ago. It has morphed a few times and I&#8217;ve hesitated to send it out, wondering to myself, &#8220;what does packing and sorting out books and papers have to do with healing and rebuilding?&#8221; This morning it came to me.
