Fat woman ain't sung...


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r26_C...eature=related always brings tears to my eyes.

My best guess is that we are going to see nothing out of Veterans United for the Truth. Bob Handy has told me on several occasions that I should contact the ACLU to see if we can generate interest there. Bob has also suggested contacting a number of law schools to see if they will take this on as a class project.

It is not that the VUFT doesn't want to help but the pro bono group that they work with put $7 million into the fight for PTSD. That group did not accept a single penny when it was initially settled and is now fighting the VA's rebuttal.

Bob also has not given me a definitive NO either. The lead attorney for the pro bono group has mesothelioma and has been out sick for some time now.

The group Veterans for Common Sense in Washington, DC has never acknowledged my request for assistance from them.

I was so discouraged with the IOM ruling that I have really done nothing since but that will be changing over the next few weeks. Someone will pick this up because we are right and the IOM decision contains no science. It was strictly a financial decision most likely driven by this administration.

The only reference to MDS / AML in the IOM report indicates that studies of these diseases have only been undertaken recently and there is no proof within the Veterans Affairs Office of a linkage between Agent Orange and our diseases. Talk about sleeping with the enemy?

Yet we proved them with Dr. Timothy Aliff’s Nexus Letter with references to twenty one scientific studies going back to 1994. They apparently did not care to look at anything other than what they received from the VA. They could not allow facts to get in the way of what they wanted to prove. That we are 14,000% more likely as a group to have the diseases meant nothing to them.

There have been over 8,000 views of this thread. Surely, one of you must have a contact within the ACLU or a law school? I am willing to travel at my expense to present our case in front of one or more of them. I need your help.

Dr. Mikkael Seekeres told me once that Aranesp would not last forever in keeping up my red count. Soon I am afraid I shall have to find out what else they have in their magic box of tricks.
