A Colorado mother pleaded guilty this week to the murder of her 5-year old daughter, who saw monsters and demons after accidentally drinking water from a glass bong used to smoke methamphetamine.
Stephanie Alvarado, 27, was convicted of second-degree murder of her daughter Sophia Larson, who was left “seeing monsters and demons” after drinking from her mother’s water pipe in December last year.
What interests me about this particular case is the fact that a 5-year-old child who has never used drugs ingests methamphetamine and then immediately starts seeing monsters and demons just like hardcore METH addicts claim to see when they commit crimes such as assault and murder. It is as if the METH acts as a conduit or a channel to this spiritual world that when one consumes this drug, they can then tune into it and see things that other people cannot or they are just hallucinations, but why would a 5-year-old child make such claims?
Alvarado had smoked METH two of her cousins when the child drank water from a bong and was seeing demons, but she refused to get her daughter medical because she could lose custody, according to the police report.
Her two cousins, Daniel Alvarado and Bertha Ceballos-Roma, were also charged with the crime. Daniel is awaiting sentencing, and Bertha was deported to Mexico.
Apparently, the METH Demon, Alvarado, has a history of uncontrollable rage, which is very common with METH addicts. She is also facing an additional six years in prison for a domestic abuse charge for attacking the father of the dead child, who happened to be her ex, just hours before her first court appearance over poor Sofia’s death.
Alvarado faces a potential of 54 years for her crimes.
Little Sophia’s dad, Alec Larson, said his ex had been a good mother until she got hooked on drugs, which he blamed for their breakup.
“I didn’t think we were going to bury my daughter. I thought we were going to bury her mom and it just took a turn for the worst,” he told Fox 31.

PRESS RELEASE
Date: February 12, 2020
Subject: Child death investigation involving five year old female on December 11, 2019.
Identity of Deceased: Sophia Larson, 5-years old, resident of Garfield County, CO.
On December 11, 2019 at approximately 3:44am the Garfield County Coroner’s Office was dispatched to Grand River Hospital in Rifle, CO for a death investigation involving a five year old girl. The subsequent law enforcement and coroner’s office investigation suggested that the child may have ingested methamphetamine.
An autopsy was completed the same day by the coroner’s office contract forensic athologist. In January 2020, toxicology results were completed and showed that the decedent had a very high level of methamphetamine in her system. The forensic pathologist determined the cause of death to be “methamphetamine intoxication.” The manner of death is certified as “accident.”
In determining the manner of death, The Garfield County Coroner’s Office adheres to the principles in the NAME (National Association of Medical Examiners) “A guide For Manner of Death Classification.”1 The manner of death is a medical classification for statistical purposes and the manner of death certification has no bearing on criminal justice proceedings, or if law enforcement or prosecutor should or should not charge a person for a violation of criminal statute.

The ancient Etruscans had developed a severe form of punishment for their prisoners by tying them to a rotting corpse and allowing them to walk around day and night until the fungal infected carcass’s organisms had started to putrefy the living person’s body.
We are told by Aristotle that “at the time, that we are punished much as those were who once upon a time when they had fallen into the hands of Etruscan robbers, were slain with elaborate cruelty; their bodies, the living [corpora viva] with the dead, were bound so exactly as possible one against another: so our souls, tied together with our bodies as the living fixed upon the dead.”
Aristotle compares the state of the soul imprisoned in the body, to the Etruscan pirates joining dead corpses to living ones.
The story is further related by Virgil in The Aeneid who says that the Etruscan king Mezentius, “went so far even as to tie dead bodies to living persons, hand to hand, face to face, as a kind of torture, thus inflicting a slow death to these beings who liquefied themselves into pus and rot, in a miserable embrace.”
The meaning of putrefaction is the process of decay or rotting in a body or other organic matter by the action of living microorganisms (bacteria, fungi, and protozoa). We can now say that corpse is far from dead when viewed at the microorganism level of fungi/molds and bacterias.
Hence, the living dead.
This form of Etruscan punishment is impressive given that the corpses organisms become one with the living forming a necrotic bond via a fungal infection that enhances the decomposition of the living, making them “become one.”
I believe the infected must do as Reza Negastrani says in The Corpse Bride: Thinking with Nigredo, “a pact with putrefaction must be made; the moment of nucleation with nigredo and Nupta Contagioso or Nupta Cadavera, which suggests a marriage with the diseased or the dead: a forcible conjugation with a corpse, and consummation of marriage with the dead as a bride.”
Negastrani writes;
“Yet more ambitiously, this fragment subtly points to a moment in philosophy when both the philosophy of Ideas and the science of being qua being are fundamentally built upon putrefaction and act in accordance with the chemistry of decay.
It is the moment when beings must undergo necrosis and decay in order to remain in being and the Ideas must be founded on intensive necrosis and an extensive decay in order to remain in their essence and to synthesize with other Ideas.
In other words, this moment marks a necessity for Ideas – even the Idea of ontology itself:
In order to be active intensively and extensively, inwardly and outwardly, the Idea must first be fully necrotized and
blackened on all levels, intensively and extensively.
The following is a disorganized venture – more in line with grave robbers and necrophiles than with archaeologists and scholars of history – to disinter the twist inherent to the fragment associated with Aristotle and to delve into the moment when, prior to all arrangements and establishments, a pact with putrefaction must be made; the moment of nucleation with nigredo, as we must call it.”
Negistrani tells us that this practice was revived during the reign of the Roman Emperor Marcus Macrinus, the notoriety of this atrocity survives antiquity and the Middle Ages. In the sixteenth century, the horror of this torture is expressed, once again, by a popular emblem called Nupta Contagioso showing a woman being tied to a man plagued by syphilis, at the King’s order.
Today, we can say that by default, through arrested development, lack of knowledge, and subsequent ignorant health and spiritual choices, many people in the West have taken it upon themselves to nucleate with nigredo, and by doing so, many make a spiritual pact with putrefaction.
When I look around our current world and see the drug addiction and lifestyle choices are causing people to putrefy and rot from the inside out as if they have become de-facto married to nigredo – AKA fungal infections that then infect our children and the culture from the very black goo that the unseen filaments that are wrapping around our souls feed upon through horizontal gene transfer.
Instead of making a pact with God, a pact is forged with the demonic fungi necrotizing our culture from the inside out, one person and one soul at a time. The So Below, As Above through the GI tract of its victims as it passes the blood-brain barrier for the battle of the Neursphere for the planet’s Noosphere. It is here where life’s eternal laws reside and the true legislators of our existence who in Christian literature is known as the devil and his legions of demons hand down sentences of death to those souls deemed unworthy, where their reality is akin to living hell as they are tortured and eaten alive.
To cope with their fate, these people who were forcibly putrified to start rotting while alive must make pacts with the intelligent demonic fungi/molds that are now taking over their minds and souls.
But unlike Negastrani’s idea of “a marriage with the diseased or the dead: a forcible conjugation with a corpse, and consummation of marriage with the dead as a bride.”
I would say that it is a forcible conjugation with decay or the devil, and consummation of marriage with the living dead as “their bride.”
Nucleation with Nigredo: A spiritual pact with putrefaction or marriage with the So Below who has taken its bride on the As Above.

During the 1970s through the 1990s, it was reported that impure brown heroin contaminated with fungi was causing fungal infections within users, according to Stuart Levitz, MD, professor of medicine and microbiology & physiological systems at the University of Massachusetts.
Dr. Levitz explained;
“During that period, the heroin supply was relatively impure, and people would use lemon juice to dissolve it,” said Levitz, whose research and clinical interest is in fungal infections. “It was believed the lemon juice got contaminated with candida, and drug users were injecting candida into their bloodstream and getting Candida infections. But, the problem went away when the heroin supply became much purer.”
According to the 2018 study by the University of Massachusetts Medical School and published by the CDC, infectious disease, Levitz and his colleagues identified a re-emergence of fungal infections associated with illicit intravenous drug use in a review of candida in patients at UMass Memorial Medical Center. After analyzing198 cases of fungal infections over a 7 year period in patients 14 or older. (1,2)
An unexpectedly large number of patients, 24, had a history of illicit intravenous drug use.
“The take-home point from the study is not necessarily that we compared 24 patients with intravenous drug use to 174 without. It’s the fact that we had 24 patients who were using IV drugs and suffered from Candida infections,” Levitz added. “In addition, nine of the 24 cases were in the last year of the study in correspondence with the surging opioid crisis.”
The researchers concluded, “These cases emphasize that in addition to overdoses, infections remain a serious cause of illness and death for intravenous drug users.”
Interestingly, many of the mental issues and drug psychosis that drug addicts complain of can be easily connected to symptoms associated with a fungal infection. For example, many addicts complain of bugs, parasites, and or mites biting them and eating their organs, such as their brains.
These symptoms are common with METH, cocaine, and heroin addicts, and they are all different drugs. That is why I contend with my supporting research that it is not the drug causing these health conditions and mental illnesses, but the fungal infection within users as a result of doing the drug.
When you look at before and after images of addicts, it does not matter if they are heroin addicts, meth addicts, or cocaine addicts, they all start to “look the same and act very similar or the same”.
Here are some before and after images of heroin addicts.
Now, this is a cocaine addict.
And Meth addicts all look very simlar or the same, which I contend is because they all have fungal infections.
It has been well documented for several decades in the U.S. that systemic candida infections cause skin lesions and even brain abscesses, so heroin addicts, just like METH and other addicts who are complaining of these symptoms, should not be automatically considered crazy and or psychotic by ignorant doctors who have not read the science.
The facts are that obtaining a severe fungal infection from using drugs has been well known for decades in the United States. For example, astudy from 1992 discovered that drugs like heroin are already infected with various genus’ of microscopic fungi even before it gets to the nose, lungs, and or blood of a user. Meaning, that when a heroin addict snorts, smokes, and or injects it, they are also injecting the live fungi that are already growing on the heroin into his or her bloodstream.
The researchers studied “the fungal spectrum of brown and white heroin and cocaine sold in the streets of Spain to analyze the extent of adulteration, as well as their toxicological potential. They found that of the 205 drug samples cultured in the appropriate medium grew 91 colonies of micellar fungi from 53 taxa, of which only 8 were found in the 3 types of drugs.”
“Statistical analyses revealed brown heroin to be significantly more contaminated by fungi on the basis of numbers of colonies per milligram of sample than the other two drugs. Forty-five of the 54 taxa isolated were found in brown heroin, with 275 colonies,” according to the study.
Samples of white heroin contained 68 colonies of 18 taxa, while cocaine samples included 48 colonies of 13 taxa. The potential pathogenicity to man of the different isolated taxa includes allergies, pulmonary mycosis, sporosis, systemic or subcutaneous mucormycosis, and asthma.
The researchers concluded, “The fact that brown heroin is more contaminated and heterogeneous in the taxa found in its samples suggests that the contaminants may be introduced during its synthesis or during adulteration with contaminated substances.” (3)
In 1987, researchers sounded the alarm when “a case of Candida albicans endocarditis is described which developed in a heroin addict with aortic valvulopathy after an episode of cutaneous and chondrocostal candidiasis related to the use of “brown” heroin.
The researchers said, “To our knowledge, this is the first case reported in the English literature. This complication should be suspected in all heroin addicts with this new syndrome, especially if valvulopathy is present.” (4)
A 1992 study of disseminated candidiasis was diagnosed in 83 heroin addicts from November 1983 to April 1990. All patients had consumed brown heroin diluted in fresh lemon juice.
Sixty-two (75%) had skin lesions, 41 (49%) had ocular lesions, and 35 (42%) had one or several costochondral tumors. Candida albicans was grown in culture or histopathologically identified in 34 cases (41%). The patients who had only cutaneous lesions were treated with ketoconazole, and they were all cured. The patients with ocular involvement received systemic amphotericin B with or without oral flucytosine; 29 of these patients developed varying degrees of vision loss.
The researchers concluded, “This is a new syndrome of candidal infection in drug addicts who use brown heroin; ocular lesions are the most harmful manifestation, and loss of vision is the major sequela.” (5)
When my six-year-old son who never took heroin or any illegal drug for that matter, was sick due to toxic mold from a home we rented in Carlsbad, California, one of his major symptoms was that he complained was vision loss and as if he was in a tunnel and his vision was seriously impaired. These vision loss episodes would happen “sporadically,” so when I read the research that heroin addicts suffer from ocular lesions and loss of vision from fungal infections, it made perfect sense.
In 1983, researchers reported about a 21-year old heroin addict from Brittain who was losing his vision has the result of a candida fungal infection. The physicians handling this your man’s case discovered that a white fungus was literally starting to cover his eyeball.
What was really weird was that “there was no evidence of yeasts or other fungi in blood or urine. Serum precipitin tests for candida and aspergillus were also negative.”
A week later, as the eye continued to deteriorate, they were able to culture the white growth to get a specimen from the heroin addict’s eyes. The researcher stated, “In this specimen, a few budding yeasts with occasional short pseudohyphae were seen in the Gram-stained tissue, and cultures produced pure growth of Candida albicans.” (6)
The doctors ended up curing and restoring the man’s vision with the antifungal drugs 5-fluorocytosine (150mg/day in 3 doses) and ketoconazole (200 mg/kg/day oral administration).
Researchers have documented how these heroin addicts developed fungal infections causing skin abscesses, pyomyositis, spondylodiscitis, septic arthritis, costal osteomyelitis, infective endocarditis, recurrent bacteraemia, and multiple brain abscesses. (7)
Last but not least, there are many reports that the heroin supply has been intentionally contaminated with fungal pathogens and some growers like in Afghanistan even suspect foul play by the U.S.
The article stated, “When the report of the fungus was first published, a reliable source directed the author of this article to the Sunshine Project, a now suspended non-profit organisation. In 2000, the international NGO had published a report about “dangerous US fungus experiments”, warning against the potentially harmful impact of the fungus on biodiversity in the target drug-producing regions.
The report said: “The strains of the fungi fusarium oxysporum and pleospora papveracae might infect and kill plants other than coca, poppy, and cannabis in ecologically sensitive areas of Asia and the Americas.”
Whether this is true, I cannot comment, but what we can be certain of is that this fungal infected heroin is still making its way onto the black market and into people’s noses, lungs, eyes, brains, and blood.

In 2015, researchers reported that a heroin addict died from a fungus/mold growing within his brain and body as a result of smoking the contaminated drug.
According to UC Health, “When the patient’s autopsy report came back to the neurologists, they saw the damage: broad ribbon-like branches of fungus extended throughout the brain tissues.
Areas of dying tissue (necrosis) and bleeding (hemorrhage) had caused the fatal brain swelling.
The fungus was identified as zygomycosis.”
Cerebral mucormycosis is a rare entity usually seen in intravenous drug users.
According to the CDC, “Mucormycosis (previously called zygomycosis) is a serious but rare fungal infection caused by a group of molds called mucormycetes. These molds live throughout the environment. Mucormycosis mainly affects people who have health problems or take medicines that lower the body’s ability to fight germs and sickness.
It most commonly affects the sinuses or the lungs after inhaling fungal spores from the air, or the skin after the fungus enters the skin through a cut, burn, or other type of skin injury. However, it can occur in nearly any part of the body.”
How did fungi typically found in the soil (in decaying leaves, compost, or rotten wood) get into the brain of this heroin user?
“The heroin itself or needles used for injection could have been contaminated with spores,” Dr. Ferioli says.
“Then, the spores either circulated in the blood to the brain or were transported via the smoke. It’s not an uncommon fungus. But it can be devastating if it enters the blood stream, even in healthy individuals.”

Danish researchers have discovered a genus of fungi that infects and eats flies from the inside out as it controls their minds creating what they call “zombie flies.”
What is interesting is how these now fungus-infected flies become zombies and predators of other flies.
The study leader, Professor Jørgen Eilenberg, had said, “It is fascinating how the life cycles of these fungi are so well adapted to the lives of the flies they target,” says Professor Jørgen Eilenberg.
According to the research published in the September 2020 issue of the Journal of Invertebrate Pathology, the fungi, Strongwellsea tigrinae and Strongwellsea acerosa have developed the ability to attack the fly, which then becomes infected. It continues to buzz around for several days as the fungi devour them from within their abdomens, creating holes that eject fungal spores that it lands upon it infects.
The Danish researchers have speculated that the fungi may produce substances that “dope” their hosts, and a fly who comes across it to mate risks becoming infected. The fungi are nourished from within the flies’ abdomen as it also feeds upon the fly’s bodies right up until the fly lies on its back, goes into convulsions, and dies as it then releases spores as it decays.
While this research may be considered groundbreaking, I honestly believe that is how ALL genus’ of flies operate, so it does not matter if Danish or an American house fly; they are all infected with fungi and practically carry out the same duties in their respective countries. I believe that the fly is one of the closest relatives to ancient fungi. They are just flying sacks of fungal spores whose job is to act just like fungi do by becoming a unique vehicle to infect others, mate and control other organisms to do their bidding.
For example, we know that like fungi, almost all flies are predators, parasites, and parasitoids, feeding upon damp and decaying plant and animal material that is the most ubiquitous food source found over much of the Earth. Today, we also know that flies and their aquatic or semiaquatic larvae have the ability, just like fungi, to live in the waters of the ocean to the bottom of the world’s deepest lakes while others live in wet mud and sand and within the skin and bodies of mammals. In contrast, one species of fly larvae can live in crude petroleum.
LORD OF FLIES
In the Scripture, we are told through various passages that Beelzebub, is another word for the Devil and the “Lord of the Flies,” an English translation. I find it interesting that the Devil is referred to as the Lord of the Flies concerning these scientific findings.
For example, the Bible tells us that we need to be alert to the fact that the “Devil is our adversary” who is the “prince of the power of the air” that “puts thoughts into our head” to lay traps to trick us into doing his will and that he “seeks to eat us.”
When we look at modern science, we can find interesting parallels between the knowledge we have now of the fungi kingdom and our Christain ancestors’ knowledge when the Scripture was created.
Then when we examine the human race and especially here in the West with our modern lifestyles, we can find similar traits that can be compared to these zombie flies and the other fungi infected insects that I have written about here on my blog. Our lifestyle choices have led to many of us to have serious addictions and diseases like alcoholism, drug addiction, diabetes, and Alzheimer’s.
Our ancestors may have called these sins and some people who today we call infected they may have called possessed by the devil or demon.
Perhaps, they are one and the same phenomenon but one explanation is scientific, while the other is religious?
Diseases where it appears that people are literally being eaten from the inside out develop sores on their bodies and lose their ability to control their behaviors no matter how hard they try. It’s as if they become demons or conscious zombies who “think they are doing their own will” when in fact, they are doing the bidding of the fungus that infects them.
Just like the flies. Just like the devil, the Lord of Flies in Scripture.
To put my theory in context, I thought I would include some images like these of methamphetamine addicts. People I have personally known in life appear to go mad as if they are losing their minds and their souls as they are eaten alive.
It is not just methamphetamine. Many drugs cause this behavior and people become zombies who have lost control of their bodies, such as fentanyl and heroin, to name a couple.
The drug use may be leading to a massive fungal infection in these people due to the chemicals, lousy food, lack of vitamins, and staying up for days on end, which is wreaking havoc on their immune systems.
These addicted people become like zombies who unwittingly start doing the fungi’ bidding, which seeks to destroy them and everyone they meet.
Maybe we can theorize that the spores are coming out of these people and their wounds infecting others?
Then we have a disease like diabetes where people develop open sores and many massive fungal infections.
Or the fact that fungi are being found in 100% of the autopsied brains of Alzheimer’s patients.
People who have Alzheimer’s Disease have been described to lose all memories and their identities to become a shell of a person.
“The feeling that someone is already gone before death fully claims them – that they are “a shell,” in the words of Paul Tripoli, a Washington-based clinician and counselor – leads some friends and family members to stop visiting someone with Alzheimer’s disease altogether.
“Some people say, ‘It just isn’t Grandma,’” Tripoli said.
They forget who they were and who they are and even forget to eat as if they are zombies, waiting to die to be consumed by the same fungi that inhabit their abdomens and brains, thus highjacking their minds, consciousness, and their bodies.
To many of you, comparing this science of zombie flies, addiction, Alzheimer’s, and zombie people to the Devil and Lord of the Flies’ stories is ludicrous because you think the Church concocted the biblical myths to control their ignorant flock.
But in my opinion, if you keep an open mind, modern science provides us with the knowledge that I believe helps validate some of the ancient teachings in the Bible.
Please keep in mind that how they had understood science two thousand years ago was much different than today.
Our scientific understanding of life and I contend the Devil proves that what they had written was true to describe this unseen world and prophetic. I believe that they knew that one day we would reach this point in human knowledge that we bring about the Apocalypse or the unveiling of these truths.
Behold flies of the dung pile, your “prince of the power of the air” (Ephesians 2:2) is here.

Imagine having little to no free will over the movement of your limbs. Now picture yourself with a hand that you literally have no control over.
A hand which seems to have a mind of its own and often, it is extremely adversarial to you. It will get mad and cause you harm. A hand that also wants to attack and hurt you to the point that it will even try to wrap itself around your neck in order to strangle you, slap your face and leave you black and blue.
I know this sounds like the plot of Hollywood Horror film but this actually happens to people in real life. Welcome to The Science of Human Duality in a modern world where people with brain lesions, seizures and surgery experience a strange medical phenomenon known as “Alien hand syndrome (AHS), Alien Limb, Anarchic Hand or Dr. Strangelove syndrome.” It was originally called “la main étrangère (‘the foreign hand’)” by Brion and Jedynak in 1972 describing patients with corpus callosal tumors.
In Stanley Kubrick’s movie Dr Strangelove, the main character has AHS and is described as “erratic.” His right hand appears to have a mind of its own, at times raising his dark gloved hand in a Nazi salute and at other times, clutching his own throat as if to choke him. Dr Strangelove must try to restrain this rebellious right hand with his left hand.
Alien hand syndrome (AHS) can be described as a medical condition that affects that brain which causes people not being able to control their bodily movements and their limbs seem to move on their own. For example, a person with AHS may move their hand, hit, and or reach for something even though they had “no thought or desire” that caused the hand to move.
It is important to note that most patients describe the involuntary hand movement as if it as a mind of its own and It is that AHS most commonly affects the left hand and leg.
Today, medical Experts describe alien hand syndrome as a phenomenon reflecting a functional “disentanglement” between thought and action. It has been proposed that alien hand should be strictly defined as involuntary movements of the limb, whether appearing purposeful or not, and should be associated with a sense of loss of ownership (Hassan and Josephs 2016).
There are many reports that this alien hand appears to act mostly in a negative or hurtful manner towards the patient and or their loved ones. It is as if the limb has some unseen “psychic phenomenon or unknown entity” controlling it.
Patients with AHS may personify the limb, referring to it as “my little friend,” and often report the limb as “having a mind of its own.” Many researchers quote an example of a patient who reported that her hand intermittently attempted to choke her. Patients often attempt to control the hand as though it were a rebellious child, sometimes rebuking, holding, slapping, or chastising it. Most people who suffer from this disease simply feel estranged from the hand or accept only a tenuous relationship with it.(Clinical Evaluation for Aphasia -Kaufman & Milstein 2013)
In 1908, German neuro-psychiatrist, Kurt Goldstein was the first person to publish a detailed case report about a right-handed woman who had suffered a stroke affecting her left side from which she had partially recovered. The problem was now the patient had no control over her left arm which she described as if it belonged to another person and performed actions that were independent of her own will.
The patient complained of a feeling of “strangeness” in relation to the goal-directed movements of the left hand and insisted that “someone else” was moving the left hand, and that she was not moving it herself.
One day, Goldstein’s patient complained, “There must be an evil spirit in the hand!”
Goldstein first connoted the “alien” quality of unilateral repetitive grasping, the impression that an alternate entity is responsible for the behavior (Goldstein 1908).
Researchers in a 2014 study, describe this negative behavior as the following; “Alien hand might manifest as a self-groping behavior and self-oppositional behavior. Autocriticism has also been reported, with the person slapping the alien hand with the normal hand. The person loses control of the affected hand as if it is being controlled by an external force. The alien hand might grab onto things and the person might have to use the other limb to release the objects from it.”
The researchers conclude, “At extremes, the alien hand has been reported to even suffocate the patient.”
A 2013 study reveals the case report of an 84-year-old African American woman who developed AHS and was so distressed by her involuntary movements that she thought her arm was “possessed by the Devil”.
The researchers had said, “An 84-year-old African-American right hand dominant woman presented to the emergency department complaining of headache and episodes of uncontrollableleft-hand movements. She described the episodes wherein her left arm moved uncontrollably as if it was groping around trying to grab herself on her body. The patient explained that while asleep she felt that “someone is trying to grab means if someone is in bed with me”.
The researchers concluded, “At times, she felt the need to talk to her hand or yell at it in order to command it to stop these embarrassing movements. These movements occurred while she was attempting to eat, watch television and during use of the toilet. The patient was evidently very distressed by these events and thought that her arm was “possessed by the Devil”.”
A 2007 study study reveals the story of a 41 year-old, left-handed, HIV positive, white woman who was admitted to a hospital in 2005 after she suffered severe headaches on her “right side” of the head which later developed into drooling and the loss of control of her left hand which she called a “monster.”
During the same period, she developed brief episodes of left-hand weakness associated with dysarthria. Two weeks later, the patient lost control of her left hand, mainly at night where upon waking her left hand was grasping her right arm. Subsequently, her dominant hand presented extravolitional movements, as if having a will of its own, not responding to volitional commands such as opening a door or holding an umbrella, but groping unneeded objects and having difficulty releasing them.
The patient often found her left hand closed, in front of her face, as if it were “looking” at her.
She was afraid of her hand: “it seemed to be a monster”.
What causes alien hand syndrome?
Most people who have been diagnosed with alien hand syndronme (AHS) suffer from lesions and tumors located in the right hemisphere of the brain and from damage to the corpus callosum which can give rise to “purposeful” actions in the sufferer’s non-dominant hand (an individual who is left-hemisphere-dominant will experience the left hand becoming alien, and the right hand will turn alien in the person with right-hemisphere dominance).
But in the vast majority of patients, the damage occurs on the right side of the brain which causes their left hand to become alien.
In “the callosal variant”, the patient’s hand counteracts voluntary actions performed by the other, “good” hand. Two phenomena that are often found in patients with the callosal alien hand are agonisticdyspraxia and diagnostic dyspraxia.
Numerous cases have been reported of the syndrome after surgery for epilepsy and seizures. which is a neurosurgical procedure with an incision involving the corpus callosum. The corpus callosum is a band of nerve fibers in the middle of our brains that acts as a mediator between our left and right hemispheres of our brain.
Apparently, once its cut, all neurological hell can break loose and then it appears that an alien or little demon then controls the left hand.
HERE IS SOME AGNOSTIC SCIENCE FOR THE FEW GNOSTICS OUT THERE….
Agonistic dyspraxia involves compulsive automatic execution of motor commands by one hand when the patient is asked to perform movements with the other hand. For example, when a patient with callosal damage was instructed to pull a chair forward, the affected hand would decisively and impulsively push the chair backwards.[14]
Agonistic dyspraxia can thus be viewed as an involuntary competitive interaction between the two hands directed toward completion of a desired act in which the affected hand competes with the unaffected hand to complete a purposive act originally intended to be performed by the unaffected hand.
Diagonistic dyspraxia, on the other hand, involves a conflict between the desired act in which the unaffected hand has been engaged and the interfering action of the affected hand which works to oppose the purpose of the desired act intended to be performed by the unaffected hand. For instance, when Akelaitis’s patients underwent surgery to the corpus callosum to reduce epileptic seizures, one patient’s left alien hand would frequently interfere with the right hand. For instance, while trying to turn over to the next page with the right hand, his left hand would try to close the book.
SURGERY FOR EPILEPSY
Pope Pius XII declared against the practice of lobotomy to treat (change) socially unbecoming behaviour, maintaining that a lesion to the frontal lobes would strip a person of free will. This thorny issue was debated at some length by an ad hoc committee of ecclesiastics and scientists. They came to the conclusion that the freedom of will of people affected by such a lesion would be degraded, and advised against their becoming priests or receiving Holy Communion.
Here are some good videos that further detail this research.
