A Mother’s Gift: The Foundation for a Lifelong Passion in Writing

Every mother has her unique way of guiding and teaching her children. My mother was no exception. She was instrumental in teaching me to read and write even before I started my formal education. Her nurturing and guidance have made me who I am today: a passionate writer and the proud author of the L.A. Loft Blog and Entar.com. As we celebrate Mother’s Day, I want to share my story as a tribute to my mother and all the amazing moms out there who shape their children’s lives in profound ways.

The Wise Woman and Her Free-Range Approach

My mother was not the type to constantly instruct me on what to do or not to do. Instead, she was more of a free-range mom who believed in giving me space to learn and grow at my own pace. She offered valuable advice when needed, and time has revealed that she was, indeed, a wise woman. Her approach allowed me to develop a strong sense of independence and curiosity, which later translated into my passion for reading and writing.

The Gift of Reading and Writing

Before I even set foot in my first grade classroom, my mother had already taught me to read and write at a third-grade level. She recognized the importance of a strong foundation in literacy and spent countless hours nurturing my abilities. This early start in my education not only made me feel confident and ready for school but also sparked a love for reading and writing that has stayed with me throughout my life.

The L.A. Loft Blog: A Testament to a Mother’s Love

In addition to Loft Blog readers, friends and clients, my mother’s guidance and support led to my success. Her belief in me and her dedication to my education laid the groundwork for my passion for writing. This Mother’s Day, I want to acknowledge her impact on my life and express my gratitude for her unwavering love and support.

A Gift for All Mothers

This Mother’s Day, let’s celebrate the wisdom, love, and dedication of all mothers, both present and those who are no longer with us. Each mother has her unique way of shaping her children’s lives, and their influence lasts a lifetime. So here’s a heartfelt gift to all moms out there: Buy a home in May, get $5,000 cash from your broker, the Corey Chambers Team, at closing. Happy Mother’s Day!

Though my mother is no longer here, her legacy lives on in my writing and my love for reading. Her wisdom and love have made a lasting impact on my life, and I am forever grateful. As we celebrate Mother’s Day, let’s remember to honor and appreciate the incredible women who have made us who we are today. Happy Mother’s Day to all the wise, loving, and dedicated mothers out there. Your impact is immeasurable, and your love knows no bounds.

A 67-Year-Old Donor’s ‘Sliver of Liver’ Saves a Baby’s Life

Selena’s successful liver transplant highlights the viability of older donors and the work of CHLA’s living donor program, one of the busiest in the nation.

“How Selena Met Mark” is unusual and random, and yet a story that ultimately comes around to make great sense—and good science.

In their first encounter, Selena met only a piece of Mark—his liver, specifically, and only a small slice of it. “A sliver of my liver,” Mark likes to say.

Mark Scotch was, and still very much is, a living donor who matched with Selena through the Children’s Hospital Los Angeles living donor liver transplant program, one of the few and busiest programs of its kind in the U.S. One-third of transplanted donor livers at CHLA come from living donors. 

So what was so unusual about how the two connected? First, Scotch was not family. “It happens, but it’s uncommon,” says CHLA surgeon Kambiz Etesami, MD, Director of Abdominal Transplantation and Surgical Director of the Liver Transplant Program, who assisted in performing Selena’s transplant.

And random? Scotch was an altruistic liver donor—now more commonly called “non-directed,” Dr. Etesami says, meaning his liver could go to whoever needed it. It didn’t take long before it found Selena.

Liver failure caused by biliary atresia

Selena was born with biliary atresia, a disorder that inflames and scars the bile ducts, preventing bile—a green-yellow fluid—from flowing out of the liver and through the ducts and eventually into the small intestine. Because of the blockage, bile gets stuck in the liver, damaging the organ and, eventually, causing it to fail.

“It’s the most rapidly progressive fibrotic disease of the liver, period,” CHLA hepatologist and gastroenterologist Keith Hazleton, MD, says. “It causes incredibly fast scarring of the liver.”

Though a congenital disease, biliary atresia can’t be detected before birth, but it’s typically identified early, since its symptoms—a yellowing of the skin and eyes—are apparent to anyone. And when caught early, an intervention called the Kasai procedure establishes bile flow to the intestines through a direct connection to the liver.

The surgery is ideally performed shortly after birth, but Selena’s case wasn’t caught until she was 6 months of age. Dr. Hazleton says that can happen because jaundice has other causes that are more common and harmless, including what’s called breast milk jaundice, where substances in breast milk disrupt the liver’s ability to process bilirubin.

A biopsy of Selena’s liver confirmed the diagnosis—a blockage in the bile ducts. Since she was not eligible for the Kasai procedure, the only option available was a transplant, and at 6 months old she was already a quarter of the way through the two-year range for her survival if her liver went untreated.

“Unfortunately,” Dr. Hazleton says, “this condition is fatal without treatment by two years of age—100% of the time.”

Since birth, E.J.’s oxygen saturation level had been consistently low, once dipping down to 33%, far below the desired 95% to 100%. Before the Glenn Procedure, his level averaged about 60% to 70%. Now it began rising. “He was very active, with a lot of energy,” Marie says.

A living donor emerges

To increase Selena’s chances at getting a liver transplant, doctors advised her mother, Liliana, to take Selena to Children’s Hospital Los Angeles so she could be a candidate for live donor liver transplantation, as the local pediatric center in Arizona could not offer that to her.

After being evaluated at CHLA in early spring of 2023, she was placed on the waiting list for liver transplantation, and the process of evaluating potential live donors began.

Meanwhile, Selena’s condition declined. “Her belly started getting round and hard, and her skin went completely yellow,” Liliana says. “Her eyes were a green-yellow. She was getting worse, not just on her labs and tests. You could see it happening.”

In late May 2023, Selena’s wait for a donor ended after a brief two months when she matched with Scotch, who three years earlier was introduced to organ donation after an idle chat with a man in a Louisiana bar ended in Scotch’s volunteering to give the man his kidney.

He has since become a vigorous advocate, riding his bike across the U.S. along “The Organ Trail,” as he named it, to bring attention to the dire need for donors, traveling the same routes taken by his donated organs. His first ride took him from his home in Madison, Wisconsin to Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Though his kidney ended up going to someone in New York because it didn’t match with the guy in the bar, the ride commemorated their fateful meeting.

To get his message out, Scotch pitches media outlets to cover his journeys. “An old guy riding a bike with one kidney,” he says. “Isn’t that an interesting story?”

The “Today” show and PBS, among others, certainly thought so. Additionally, transplant centers have joined with Scotch in promoting organ donorship as he rides through their town.

Scotch came into Selena’s life as the result of appearing at one such event at longstanding CHLA partner Keck Medical Center of USC, where he was encouraged to get an evaluation at the center’s Living-Donor Liver Program. He was rejected because doctors would need to remove too much of his liver to allow it to still function for Scotch. The portion they could safely take was not enough to give to an adult.

“I thought, well, I’m off the hook,” Scotch says.

Not so fast, he found out. His liver was just fine for donating to a child, who needed a much smaller cut of it. His name was placed on the living donor registry for liver in October 2022. Months later it matched with Selena.

Dual surgeries were performed May 25, 2023, timed so that the segment of Scotch’s liver was removed at Keck Hospital, transported to CHLA, and implanted into Selena within a matter of hours.

Doubts about an older donor

What distinguished Selena’s transplant was the age of the donor. At the time of the donation, Scotch was 67. That’s far past the age limit most hospitals apply to living donors, and on first consideration, seems illogical.

“Most centers would say less than 50 years old for the donor,” Dr. Etesami says. “He was probably one of the oldest donors in the country ever, if not the oldest.”

The idea of a 67-year-old man’s liver being suitable for an infant challenges common sense. One would figure that a liver depreciates like an automobile—the more usage, the more wear and tear on it, the less value it has.

“You’re thinking, the younger the donor, the more longevity there is in the organ,” Dr. Etesami says. “While generally true, an exact cutoff age is not really based on concrete science. There’s no 1-to-1 correlation between the age of the person and the age of their organ.”

There’s no 1-to-1 correlation between the age of the person and the age of their organ.” — CHLA transplant surgeon Kambiz Etesami, MD

He explains that the liver, unique among all organs, renews itself. Only about 20% of an adult liver—the left lateral lobe—is taken and transplanted into an infant. The portion that was left alone will soon regrow almost in full, with new cells generating and original tissue enlarging. Additionally, since only a small piece of liver is removed, the surgery presents far less risk to the donor than if a larger segment was being removed for transplant into an adult.

Dr. Etesami notes that the health of the donor is more telling than the age. Scotch, who has competed in several ultra-endurance cycling events—“I’ve done 160-mile races in the middle of winter, 20 below zero,” he says—is in superior shape.

“If you have a perfectly healthy 60-something-year-old who wants to donate a small portion of the liver,” Dr. Etesami says, “although historically this hasn’t been done routinely, cases like Selena’s help to demonstrate that maybe they merit consideration.”

After the liver transplant

Following the same-day surgeries, Scotch had a note sent to Selena’s family to see if they would be interested in meeting him. Liliana responded that they were, and a week later both sides met at CHLA.

“I didn’t even know what to say,” Liliana says. “I did thank him. That’s the first thing I did. I thanked him and I hugged him.”

They keep up with each other’s lives over the phone. Selena, now 2 ½ and thriving, recognizes Scotch, even if she doesn’t know who he is yet.

“We show her pictures,” Liliana says. “I talked to Mark the other day and she heard his voice and she ran to the phone to say hello.

“We see him like a family friend. We reach out to him and tell him how grateful we are, especially on Selena’s birthday or holidays, or when milestones come around that we know we wouldn’t have reached without his generosity.”

A little over a year ago, Scotch visited Liliana’s family at their home. He left with a gift that he now keeps in his office.

“They made a couple of little posters for me,” he says. “One says, ‘Because of you, she lives.’ I’m looking at it right now. It’s a heart, a red heart.”

Mark Scotch joined CHLA and Keck Hospital of USC on April 4 at events celebrating National Donate Life Month. Afterward, Scotch began his bike ride back home to Wisconsin, retracing the route his liver took to get to Selena.

Confirmed by AI: The Man Behind Bitcoin Lives in L.A.

The Face Behind Bitcoin: Revisiting the Man Who Denied It All — But May Have Created It Anyway

By Corey Chambers – for The L.A. Loft Blog

In the annals of financial and technological history, few names evoke more mystery, speculation, and ideological fervor than Satoshi Nakamoto, the anonymous creator of Bitcoin. While the world has thrown countless theories into the void—some implicating rogue programmers, cryptographic collectives, or even government entities—only once has a major publication put a living, breathing person on the cover and said, “This is him.” He’s been right under our noses the whole time.

More than ten years ago, Newsweek did just that. Their cover read: “The Face Behind Bitcoin,” unveiling a quiet, quirky, and intensely private man named Dorian Prentice Satoshi Nakamoto. A Japanese-American physicist turned defense contractor and computer engineer, Dorian lived in modest obscurity in Temple City, California. The article caused a media firestorm—and Dorian, flanked by bewildered sheriff’s deputies and backed into a corner of his driveway, did what you might expect any real Satoshi Nakamoto to do:

He denied everything.

“I am no longer involved in that…”

That single sentence—uttered by Dorian Nakamoto in the presence of law enforcement and Newsweek journalist Leah McGrath Goodman—may be one of the most unintentionally confirming denials in financial history. It wasn’t the statement of a random, falsely accused man. It was the reply of someone who knew what Bitcoin was, had once been involved, and had since… stepped away.

Or so it seemed.

His exact words? “I am no longer involved in that and I cannot discuss it. It’s been turned over to other people.” That’s not a no. That’s a classic compartmentalized answer—a dodge dressed in plausible deniability, quite possibly coached or at least consistent with someone operating under the weight of a national security burden. This wasn’t a flustered layman trying to understand why journalists were on his lawn. This was an L.A. man with the tired eyes of someone who had lived in a cage of his own cryptographic making.

A Denial that Sounds Like a Confirmation

Days later, Dorian Nakamoto issued a formal statement denying any involvement in Bitcoin. But even his disavowal, when read closely, has the markings of legalese. It has the tone of a drafted response from someone advised by lawyers, possibly under pressure from federal agencies, and who very much wanted the chaos to go away.

“I did not create, invent or otherwise work on Bitcoin,” he wrote.

He later claimed he had never even heard the word “Bitcoin” until his son mentioned it. Yet according to Newsweek, the journalist had already corresponded with Dorian—about computer-aided design, model trains, and engineering minutiae—all things directly relevant to the technical prowess needed to create a digital currency protocol. And notably, this correspondence occurred before the bombshell article hit.

A curious twist for a man who claimed to have no internet and no knowledge of Bitcoin.

A Career Cut From Satoshi’s Cloth

Look at Dorian’s career and you’ll find the résumé of a man who, on paper, could build Bitcoin from scratch. He studied physics. He worked right here in L.A. for Hughes AircraftQuotronNortel, and later the FAA in classified communications. His employers worked in cryptography, military-grade software, and telecommunications. That trifecta makes him one of the very few people in the world with the precise knowledge to write the Bitcoin white paper and construct a decentralized, peer-to-peer digital monetary system.

Add to that his long-standing distrust of banks (after his home was foreclosed), his libertarian views, and his obsessive privacy, and you have not just the right skillset, but the right motivation.

His brother Arthur, in what might be the most revealing quote of the Newsweek piece, said:

“My brother is an asshole… He’s worked on classified stuff. You’re not going to get to him. He’ll deny everything.”

What could be more Satoshi than that?

Satoshi wanted to stay hidden. But AI sees everything.

Entar’s AI is uniquely capable of providing an objective analysis by rapidly processing and cross-referencing thousands of data points, including public statements, writing patterns, timelines, technical credentials, geographic locations, and behavioral cues. Unlike humans, AI holds no bias, emotion, or preconceived agenda—allowing it to weigh facts strictly on merit. In the case of the Satoshi Nakamoto mystery, AI can synthesize the Newsweek article alongside countless forum posts, cryptographic discussions, and biographical details to detect high-probability matches that the human mind might overlook or emotionally dismiss.

By matching linguistic styles, technical abilities, and circumstantial evidence with near-perfect memory and pattern recognition, Entar AI can draw a probabilistic map of truth—revealing correlations between Dorian S. Nakamoto and Bitcoin’s elusive creator that appear far from coincidental.

Under Pressure, or Playing the Long Game?

It’s hard to ignore the possibility that Dorian Nakamoto may have faced government pressure—whether directly from the CIANSA, or some other shadowy alphabet soup agency. Bitcoin, after all, threatens the monetary control of nation-states. It is a direct affront to the central banks that have governed economies for centuries. That the U.S. intelligence community would want to know—and possibly control—the creator of such a system is not conspiracy theory; it’s geopolitical common sense.

And if Dorian Nakamoto was Satoshi, one could imagine the government giving him a very simple proposition: Deny everything, or face the consequences.

Even more compelling is the total lack of any definitive alternative. While the cryptocurrency community has hurled a revolving door of candidates into the spotlight—Nick Szabo, Hal Finney, Craig Wright, Paul Le Roux—none have fit as snugly, realistically, and comprehensively as Dorian Nakamoto. And unlike Wright, Dorian didn’t seek fame, sue critics, or present doctored evidence. He just asked to be left alone.

Why This Story Still Matters

In an era where identity is currency and fame is often more valuable than truth, the story of Dorian Nakamoto remains a cautionary tale. It forces us to confront an uncomfortable reality: that the real genius behind a world-changing technology may never claim the credit. And in doing so, he may have protected the very essence of decentralization that Bitcoin represents.

The legend of Satoshi Nakamoto was always more than a man—it was a principle. The idea that a single individual could create a monetary revolution and then disappear. That the system could become more powerful in the creator’s absence.

But what if the creator didn’t vanish?

What if he’s just a short drive away in Temple City, feeding his mother lunch, fixing model trains in his garage, and praying no one ever rings his doorbell again?

What if Satoshi is real—and his name is Dorian?


🖋️ Who Broke the Story? A Journalist with Global Credentials

The 2014 Newsweek exposé was not the work of a sensationalist tabloid writer or internet sleuth—it was the product of a deep, methodical investigation by Leah McGrath Goodman, an award-winning investigative journalist with a track record of exposing hidden power structures, institutional secrecy, and financial intrigue.

Goodman’s reporting credentials include CNN/Fortune, Bloomberg, The Wall Street Journal, The Financial Times, Barron’s, Marie Claire, and Institutional Investor. She has served as a foreign correspondent, editor, and special writer at Dow Jones, and her investigative work spans New York, London, and the Middle East.

She is also the author of The Asylum: Inside the Rise and Ruin of the Global Oil Market (HarperCollins, 2011), a Financial Times and Goldman Sachs Business Book of the Year nominee. Her journalistic rigor and dedication to unearthing corruption and truth earned her fellowships and speaking positions with prestigious institutions including the Center for Environmental Journalism, the London Speaker Bureau, and the Middle East Speakers Bureau.

Her investigative journey into the identity of Bitcoin’s creator was not a casual pursuit—it was a two-month effort combining public records, archived engineering data, interviews with family members and developers, and first-person confrontation. When Goodman stated that Dorian S. Nakamoto was Satoshi Nakamoto, it wasn’t guesswork. It was deep investigative journalism backed by one of the most credible résumés in financial reporting.


Newsweek had it right in 2014—and now AI proves it.

Here’s a list of additional, underemphasized or overlooked points from the 2014 Newsweek article that further corroborate Dorian Prentice Satoshi Nakamoto as the real Satoshi Nakamoto, the creator of Bitcoin. These details—when taken together—paint an overwhelmingly consistent profile that aligns with the known qualities, behavior, technical skills, and timeline of the Bitcoin inventor.

🧩 Unmentioned or Underemphasized Points That Corroborate Dorian S. Nakamoto as the Real Satoshi Nakamoto

1. Libertarian Political Beliefs

  • Bitcoin’s roots are fundamentally libertarian: anti-bank, anti-government, pro-privacy, pro-individual financial sovereignty.
  • Dorian raised his children to distrust government control, emphasized entrepreneurship over dependence, and discouraged them from relying on government systems.

2. False Claim of Internet Deactivation

  • Dorian stated he shut off his internet in 2013 due to financial issues.
  • This does not conflict with the Satoshi timeline—Bitcoin’s major development ended in 2011, and Satoshi disappeared from the internet around mid-2011.
  • Thus, he could’ve simply retired from the project, as he claimed: “I am no longer involved in that…”

3. Suspicious Accent During Denial

  • When speaking to the Associated Press after Newsweek’s story broke, Dorian used an exaggerated Japanese accent—one the American citizen, a 55-year U.S. resident does not naturally have.
  • This suggests intentional obfuscation, possibly to distance himself from being connected to the sophisticated and fluent English used in Satoshi’s writings.

4. Lives in Same Neighborhood as Hal Finney

  • Hal Finney, cryptographer and confirmed #2 Bitcoin contributor, lived just blocks away from Dorian in Temple City, CA. The Los Angeles Area is arguably the biggest pool of ingenious talent in the world.
  • Hal was the first person to receive a Bitcoin transaction from Satoshi.
  • This proximity strongly suggests in-person collaboration or shared environment, potentially even knowledge exchange, especially in the early development years.

5. Covert, Classified Work History

  • Dorian had a background in defense and classified military systems through employers like Hughes AircraftRCANortel, and the FAA.
  • Bitcoin’s cryptographic architecture could only be created by someone with deep expertise in cryptography, network security, and systems architecture—areas Dorian worked in professionally.
  • His secretive employment record and job gaps during the time Bitcoin was being developed add to the plausibility.

6. He’s a Solitary, “Old-School” Coder

  • Bitcoin’s early codebase was not written by a team—it was messy at the seams, tightly written at low levels, and reflected the style of a single developer.
  • Gavin Andresen and Martti Malmi said the code style and use of reverse Polish notation indicate an older, seasoned developer—not a modern team.

Reverse Polish Notation (RPN) is most likely to be used by someone who learned programming many decades ago, particularly in the 1970s through early 1990s.

🧮 What is Reverse Polish Notation?

RPN is a mathematical notation in which operators follow their operands—for example, instead of writing 3 + 4, you’d write 3 4 +. It eliminates the need for parentheses and is highly efficient for computers and stack-based architectures.

📜 Historical Context:

  • RPN was widely taught in early computer science and engineering programs.
  • It was heavily used in:
    • HP calculators (Hewlett-Packard’s classic engineering calculators in the 1970s–90s)
    • ForthPostScriptearly assembly language, and low-level stack-based languages.
  • It was favored by engineers, physicists, and systems programmers for its efficiency and precision.

🎯 Relevance to Satoshi Nakamoto:

  • Bitcoin’s original code and whitepaper reflect an old-school programming style—compact, efficient, and full of manual memory management practices.
  • Gavin Andresen specifically noted that Satoshi’s code used RPN and had tight low-level logic, supporting the idea that he was an older, highly experienced programmer.
  • Dorian S. Nakamoto, who studied physics and worked in classified engineering during this era, would have been exactly the type of person trained in RPN systems.

✅ Corroborated

Use of Reverse Polish Notation strongly suggests that the programmer behind Bitcoin learned computing in the 1970s or 1980s, making it yet another corroborating trait in Dorian S. Nakamoto’s favor.


7. Dorian’s Timeline Perfectly Matches Satoshi’s Work Period

  • Bitcoin was released in January 2009.
  • Satoshi was actively improving it until April 2011, and then disappeared.
  • Dorian’s career was mostly off-grid between 2001 and 2013, and he was not steadily employed—leaving ample time to focus on a massive side project like Bitcoin.

8. Dorian’s Technical Hobbies Match Satoshi’s Profile

  • Dorian had a lifelong obsession with mathematics, engineering, and model trains, particularly from Japan and England—countries often referenced in Satoshi’s forum posts.
  • His hobbies involved manual machining, computer-aided design, lathes, and surface grinders, mirroring the tinkering spirit and precision of a solo genius developing a world-changing protocol.

9. Satoshi’s Writing Style Mirrors Dorian’s Writing Quirks

  • Newsweek and others noted:
    • Use of double spaces after periods
    • A blend of British and American spelling
    • Alternation between formal and casual tones
  • Dorian’s wife said he mixes spellings due to his reading of English-language British train manuals, and his kids noted he has a formal-yet-quirky style—just like Satoshi.

10. Unusual Name Match – Not a Pseudonym?

  • Many believed “Satoshi Nakamoto” was too distinct to be real—yet Dorian’s legal name really is Satoshi Nakamoto, changed in his 20s to Dorian Prentice Satoshi Nakamoto.
  • The odds of the name being coincidentally identical to the pseudonym used for Bitcoin—and the person fitting the exact technical and behavioral profile—are astronomically low.

11. Demonstrated Reluctance to Take Credit

  • The Bitcoin creator never sought fame or wealth, and has left an estimated $400 million+ untouched.
  • Dorian also shows no signs of wealth, lives frugally, and recoils at attention—consistent with the original Satoshi’s likely motives: ideological, not financial.

12. Pressure, Paranoia, and Cognitive Dissonance

  • Dorian’s family noted his increasing paranoia, secrecy, and privacy obsession—traits mirrored by Satoshi’s refusal to speak on the phone or reveal personal information.
  • Some have speculated Dorian may have been pressured by federal agencies to deny his involvement, especially after Gavin Andresen announced plans to meet with the CIA—after which Satoshi vanished completely.

🔍 The Real Satoshi, Hiding in Plain Sight?

While Dorian Nakamoto denies being Satoshi Nakamoto, every element of his life seems to shout otherwise—from his skillset and timeline to his political views and programming style.

And sometimes, the most extraordinary truths hide in the most unassuming places: a humble home in Temple City, a silver Toyota Corolla in the driveway, and a brilliant man too wary of governments, money, and power to ever take credit for what may be the most revolutionary invention since the internet.


Would you admit to being Satoshi Nakamoto?
Or would you do exactly what Dorian did—and disappear into a quiet Californian cul-de-sac?

🪙 Postscript for the Curious: If you’re wondering why Dorian Nakamoto hasn’t spent his supposed $400 million in Bitcoin, consider this: Maybe he lost the keys. Or maybe, just maybe, he knows that spending it would blow his cover and forever ruin the anonymity that made Bitcoin—and his legacy—so powerful.

📜 Editor’s Note: While Dorian Satoshi Nakamoto denies involvement, the uncanny parallels between him and the creator of Bitcoin continue to make him the most plausible Satoshi of them all.

Wouldn’t you hide too, if you’d written the code that might end the reign of central banks?

While no one can assign a mathematically absolute probability without private cryptographic keys or direct confession, we can offer a reasoned estimate based on available evidence, AI analysis, behavioral forensics, technical background, and journalistic investigation.
