Nobody deserves this kind of treatment or "mistreatment". But in this particular situation, so MANY lives are at risk!! Will it take a tragedy in the air, to get someone's attention? Not only is David sick, but I'm told many of his co-workers are sick and that cognitive mistakes are being made within the Metro Tower? Does that also not put our air travelers at great risk? Does the flying public have any idea what lies behind the scene? This requires immediate attention, on all aspects of a most alarming situation. It's been two years. We don't want to see a major tragedy take place.

We've got to help David get this story out. I'm posting a few photos of injuries I sustained as a result of toxic mold - trichothecene. But the focus of this article is the situation at Detroit Metro. I only share these photos because I want the public to be aware of how dangerous mold poisoning can be. The photos show visible burns and an attack on my central nervous system. But it also caused multiple organ damage and destroyed my immune system. This can happen to anyone exposed to these toxins.

You can visit my website and read more about the effects of toxic mold.

http://www.myspace.com/faceoftoxicmold Or visit Sickbuildings - A Yahoo Health Group.

When you play with fire somebody usually gets burned. Please pass this on to every Senator, Congressman, newspaper or contact you have.

I hope this article helps. I pray we'll unite and not allow this to happen to David or these air traffic controllers. Keep them and our air space safe! God bless you.  These photos and health effects are REAL.  Please help this man and all involved -be it directly or indirectly.

Songwriters, now victim/advocates Iris and husband Tlee were poisoned by toxic mold & trichothecene. Forced to abandon home & worldly possessions, this deadly mycotoxin destroyed their health. Their goal is to create a public awareness on the adverse health effects of indoor toxic mold.

ABC News, EMagazine, Healthy Living and many other publications shared their story.  

As they battle their own tragedy, they're determined to help victims get proper medical care and assistance. Iris arranged the 1st mold health seminar in her area in Nov. 2007. As both victims and advocates they will help you any way they can. They ask for your support of their efforts.

Music is all that remains of the life once shared. Just before diagnosis, they released a heartfelt 911 tribute CD, Surviving the Storms, Truckin' On and other songs of life, love, laughter, hope and inspiration.

Iris is involved in a national Mold Awareness Month. Despite both Iris and Tlee facing a life-threatening diagnosis, she has faith that God is in control and miracles still happen.

Help These Air Traffic Controllers

I'm the lady who submitted this article and in the photos which I hope show how serious this health issue really is.  David needs your support! He's devoted most of his adult life to his career.  He did nothing to bring this illness on himself.  I can relate to the pain and nearing 400 medical appointments.  Can you even imagine the pain and stress this has put on him and those who care about him?  Many don't realize it, because they just don't have the time or TAKE the time to really LISTEN. 

Some of the symptoms and things these toxins do to the human body are beyond bizarre.  If you don't see them, you would not believe a lot of what we go thru.  We can't even awaken in the mornings and stretch without our muscles going into spastic-like and uncontrollable spasms/cramps.  We get so hypersensitive AFTER the poisoning, we can no longer tolerate even minute amounts of mold/mildew.  Many become chemcially sensitive.  A simple exposure will now debilitate us.  All our body organs are affected.  We have no immune system. We can't eat without getting sick. We can't sleep. We have trouble breathing without burning, Our chests feel like a two ton truck is crushing it, no moisture in our often swollen red eyes..we have slurred speech and neurological injuries...the pain can radiate thru our nerves or we can feel like someone beat us all over with a sledge hammer. We have cognitive problems, loss of focus.  We can be driving down a street we've traveled our entire life..and suddenly not know where we're at. 

This is REAL, folks and it's also taking place all over this country..in our homes, schools, and like David workplace...Those who are liable are often quick to tell us..it's no big deal..nothing to worry about or even go so far as to say that mold can't make you sick..Mycotoxins do not exist...?? as I said please go look it up for yourself..

Do a search on trichothecene. Look up the health effects.  See what to do with your belongings once contaminated...See what the cure for this poisoning is..There IS no cure!  And those who think you can just wipe these molds away. Often you never even see mold..we didn't..yet the toxic vapors were penetrating thru the walls.. they were as a stealth and slowly invading our cells...and note there are MANY mycotoxins...

Everybody passes the buck..Contact this person, this agency, but it seems like everyone's hands are tied...it's like a viscious circle which usually leads you back to square one.

To think they would fire this man when the environment they created are the reason he's sick? That's horrible. With all his years of service and aquired talents, surely they could find him a safe work area?  or maybe none of it is safe?  The other workers with health problems..They don't need to be worried about their jobs being in danger because of a work-related illness...

And to allow our air space to be at risk due to sick controllers..somebody needs to bite the bullet and do what is right.  I admire David for speaking out.  I urge everyone to help this man and his family by sharing this with every politician, newspaper or contact you can get access to.  He and his family really need your support and prayers.  This illness is a constant battle.

Help us break this mold of deceit, greed and death...

Iris & Tlee

I posted symptoms of trichothecene exposure..and other info on my website. www.myspace.com/faceoftoxicmold

Also posted an article here on oped about the history and effects of mold which I correlated with Dr. Campbell. and an article from Wall Street which may enlighten you as to what is really going on with the mold issue...

I think when you realize how badly these toxins can affect you, you'll see the situation at Detroit Metro is very serious indeed.  Thanks for helping me get David's story out there.  God bless you all.  Iris
