The Medical Perspective on Environmental Sensitivities
Mothers Heartbreak
May I suggest for further insight into the sensitivity known as EHS reading the comprehensive document 'The Medical Perspective on Environmental Sensitivities' by the Canadian Human Rights Commission on Environmental Sensitivities http://www.chrc-ccdp.gc.ca/sites/default/files/envsensitivity_en.pdf [ http://www.hrinfodesk.com/preview.asp?article=22802 ]. It has many reference pages of research on EHS used in its examination from top scientists and medical doctors around the world. Many conditions in past such as fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, and chemical sensitivity were once thought to be psychological also, however, we now know they are legitimate health conditions with very real and debilitating effects. Most people with EHS have gone for years feeling ill before discovering the source of their problem, and are very aware of what brings on ill symptoms for them, in this case electromagnetic radiation usually from wireless devices. But for those who are sceptical, there are tell tale biomarkers that cannot be faked or simply induced with thought such as increased levels of: C- reactive protein, cortisol, GH, norepinephrine, and histamine; altered cerebral blood flow; influx of calcium into mast cells; tachycardia; rouleaux formation (stacking) of blood cells; ECG and EEG changes, as well as subjective data. This is obviously not just a figment of the imagination. Their reality is, they feel better when in a clean environment (no or very little RF/MW radiation) and quickly deteriorate when they are being irradiated whether they are aware of the source or not. Who are any of us to tell them to suck it up and live with it? Would we accept that attitude if it were our child suffering?
Well for me, it is my child. My son is crushed he cannot attend the middle school (Dunsmuir) in our catchment next year with all his friends, where they also have a soccer academy (been playing soccer since he was 5 yrs. old) due to the Wi-Fi that blankets the entire school with microwave radiation that gives him headaches, tachycardia (speeding heart rate), fatigue, and nausea. I had a tour of the school, they have two computer labs that are plugged in for power and could easily be wired for internet, but instead my son will have to go out of area to a school without his friends and without the special soccer program that he would love, why? all so that the computers can have no wires to connect to the internet. I pray we can find a school without Wi-Fi, if not, what will our options as parents be? Tell me how any of this is ethical or equitable for any child that already has to deal with so much. For the sake of children like mine and Karen s, please take the time to research the real and growing sensitivity of EHS, but also to further understand that ALL children, whether sensitive or not, are being harmed with cumulative exposure to microwave radiation, the very same frequency of radiation used in microwave ovens only less powerful, but over many many years! There is much wrong in the world if we as parents are unwilling to look at the mounting evidence available from many different and credible sources (independent and free from industry funding) that clearly affirms children should avoid all forms of radiation wherever possible to reduce their risk at the most vulnerable stage of their lives. Ignorance is not bliss, and our children will pay the biggest price for our mistake if we continue to ignore what science is already elucidating.
