Hi Tim

On Page 104 of the above book I quote " Some health effects of radiation
include including cataracts, radiation sickness and radiation dermatitis and
failure of several organs, years after exposure....5 to 15 years for
leukaemia, up to 40 years for skin, lung, breast and other cancers"

There are other such quotes throughout this book about the effects of
electrical injury but for now I will leave them out.

There is also a full report in The American Medical Association " Home
Medical Encyclopaedia (NY: Randem House, 1989),846

The book is only one of a few I have about electrical shock injury all the
books state that cancer is an effect of electrical shock injury specifically
male & female breast cancer,and I will strive to explain as well and as
simple as  I can how it happens, although I am not very good at but
persevere with me.

When a person receives a severe electrical injury they are also receiving
non ionising radiation particles even with a small electrical shock, this is
basic science. It is the current that does the damage and of course the
greater the current the greater the effect.

Every electrical shock injury carries Electromagnetic Force Radiation.

The currant changes basic cellular structures throughout the body including
damage to DNA, breast cells in particular become "excited" some develop into
abnormal pre cancerous cells and through time into most commonly with
electrical shock injury a highly aggressive growing cancer.

I would like to point out a just few myths about electrical shock injury.

Not all electrical shock survivors have entry and exit burns only Direct
Current D.C. produces burns on the human body.

Alternating Current A.C. is 3 times more dangerous than D.C. per AMP. for
AMP.

I'm reluctant to get into this, as I always get in trouble when I do get
into these type of debates. BuT...
When I was dx my bc surgeon/specialist told me that my two most
important risk factors for this was and I quote "your getting older and
your a woman
We've lived in the same place for 30 years next year.
We have high tension lines at the very back of our mobile home park.
These are quite a distance from our home. I was curious also, as this
had come up before in our looking for the "why" of this mess.
Of course we've learned that for most of the cases of breast cancer
there are no concrete, etched in stone answers.
Nor, do I think they are fortn coming anytime soon.
So I asked the "hub" and he told me in order for this to have been the
cause I would've had to lay under those high tension lines for years to
get the exposure that would have created my tumor. He said "a 100 years"
to be accurate.
We're concentrating more on the polution that we have in this state. But
even that's not a "given" as far as a reason.
Our state is one of THE worst for polution...
I grow roses, could have been the sprays I used to use on these.
Could've been the microwave I've used for the last 15 years. I had ti
for 10 years before I was dx.
It could've been one of these or a combo of all of them. BuT! I'd now
rather be spending time enjoying the things that I like to do..instead
of sitting around wondering "why me" and "how"
I've "been there and done" that as they say, and it took 3 good years
from me and this is time I can't get back.
So now I've just excepted the fact that I've had it {twice even} and
just do the best I can not to dwell on it, and do what I can to stay
healthy from here on out.

There are tons of studies out there, and that's not a bad thing, that's
how we learn. But when they become "conclusive" then we can better make
the additional changes we need to make to keep us safe.
Take care everyone
God bless
annie
p/s Tim you're amazing!! and I hope you continue to lead us to good
solid information. I know I'm greatful you're here. ;-)




Ultimately.....we know deeply that the other side of every fear is a
freedom.

"Courage"...is *fear* that has said it's prayers.
