I was raised in the U.P. of Mich. and was living in northern Mich in 1981
when
got TM. at age 55. Thirty years ago many believed that living in the north was
a
contributing factor for TM.

I don't think that where we lived when TM struck is the only underlying factor.
I was watching CNN and the doctor, Dr. Grupa?, said that they have studied the
cord blood of newborns and they have found that the cord blood contained over
200 chemicals, not body chemials but harmful chemicals - contaminated
newborns is what they called the newborns.
The Dr. also said that there are thousands of chemicals that are in our food,
air, clothing, cleaning supplies, etc. that have NOT been studied to make sure
that they are not harmful. A Congressman has submitted a bill that will not
allow any chemical to be used until the chemical is proven not harmful - as it
stands now, a chemical is put into use and used until it is proven to be
harmful! So we are all guinea pigs for the industries.
For myself I believe that I had the bad genes for my auoimmune sstem but also
just 75 days before TM struc me, I had a botched surgery then a follow-up
successful surgery 30 days later. In between the surgeries, I had an
allergy reaction to the meds that they gave me. After the successful sugery,
I went back to work early - due to deadlines which resulted in stress! Added
to that were the holidays stress - Thanksgiving and Christmas. I think
another factor was that the hospital where I had the botched successful
surgery was under major remodeling - the surgery rooms where right next to a
major area being remodeled.
I grew up in Indianapolis, IN. I can rememer the different smells in the air
- just to name a couple, a creasol pole coating factory, a couple of slaughter
houses, meat processing, medical processing, bakeries (Wonder bread and
others). I lived there for over 20 years. My daughter was born there and as a
baby she had so many attacks of broncitis (sp?) BUT as soon as we moved here in
SW FL when she was 2, the attacks stopped.
Life is short! Break the rules! Forgive quickly! Kiss slowly!
Love truly, Laugh uncontrollably .
And never regret anything that made you smile.
Prayers and thoughts for you and yours,
Candy K.

After the awful news Janet Dunn has given us, I am wondering if where we live
in the US has any relevance. I realize that there are those in our group
that are from
other countries and I am asking them along with our US citizens to just send me
your name and the city and state you were living in when TM attacked you. I
hope
you don't mind my asking you to do this, but I think it would be very
interesting if we found a certain area that was heavy with TM or very light
with TM.
Thank you, Janice

According to my booklet from the Reed foundation, it is well within
the realm of possibility.
It seems to depend on the level and type/span of your injury.
You should contact the Reed foundation and get that booklet-- it was
incredibly helpful
to me while i was in the nursing home being mistreated. And I shared
it with the other
oppressed prisoners-- a couple of guys who told me it was VERY helpful.
