Re: MCS brought on by toxid mold

More | Report Post

Yea, some people used to believe the world was flat. Those are
the same type of people that didn't believe that asbestos or
lead could poison people. Now they don't look so good.

I am very insulted by the lack of knowledge about toxic mold on
this board. There is proof that mold can cause disease and
health problems, including MCS. Many MCS patients develop MCS
due to their mold exposure. Due to the fact that some people
aren't willing to accept it, mold victims are having difficulty
getting the medical treatment and legal representation that
they need. Toxic mold makes people sick and can, as well as
has, killed people. The episode of "Foresenic Files" on Court
Tv that Waldo mentioned, showcased forensic proof of the affect
the mold exposure had on that family. That episode can be
purchased and previewed on the Court Tv website at:

The episode is called "Breaking the Mold." This particular
case has set a precedence for many other cases and state
legislations.

By the way, my healthy, athletic, active family of four was
nearly killed by mold in our home. All of us, including my two
beautiful, innocent children suffer severe chronic illness due
to the long term exposure. I have MCS now. I did not have it
prior to moving into our house. I developed it within 6 months
of living there. Mold destroyed our lives and has challenged my
children's future. Their education is now being affected by
it. Mold is affecting our future generations, right now. We
cannot sit back and ignore this any longer. If you don't
believe it, instead of sitting there and criticizing, please
take the time to research and educate yourself.

H.R. 1268 "The Melina Bill" is currently being presented before
congress to address mold issues the same way we address lead
and asbestos. This of course, if passed, will affect
leglislation on a national level, instead of a state level
(like in the past.) Congressman John Conyers is sponsoring it.
Read about H.R. 1268 on his website:

Those medical and scientific professionals working with
Congressman Conyers on this issue are providing hard proof to
Congress of its existence. During National Mold Awareness Week
in September, mold activists received a very positive response
from Congress Representatives and staffers. The momentum is
picking up for support of this bill. I'm sure you'll be
hearing more and more about it in the coming months.

Here is just some of the proof from the medical profession and
forensic scientists out there. I'm also including reference
sites for any inquiries you may have. Thank you.

The book "Mold & Mycotoxins," by Dr. Kaye H. Kilburn, M.D. is
very thorough in presenting scientific facts to prove our point.
I believe it to be the best book on this subject.

The fact is, mold can make people sick. The proof is now
becoming more and more well documented and publically known. I
can provide you with list after list of lawsuits that are being
awarded to mold victims; some resulting in million+ dollar
rewards. Even though the law is still vague on how to
represent these victims, it will not be for much longer. The
business of mold tort lawyers is booming. In my county alone
there are 40+ active cases and hundreds in process. So if you
are an attorney, it is in your best interest to educate
yourself. If not to help innocent victims, than to build a
lucrative business. If you want a piece of the "Moldy Pie," I
suggest getting on board soon.
