The
forwarded study from Australia re high voltage transmission lines
(2007) supports immune deficiencies that fall into the category of
lymphoproliferative disorders (LPD) or myeloproliferative disorders
(MPD) and the link to low level EMF/EMR exposures in my two grandsons
as well as my guinea pigs.
These
findings, when one digs deeper to identify certain aspects of white
blood cell changes/differentiation, allow for comparison of levels of
hypersegmented neutrophils (slowed DNA synthesis), lymphocytosis and
neutropenia, all of which are "markers for irradiation" and well-known
to be associated with adverse effects of undergoing radiation
treatments for cancer.
You
have agreed studies regarding factors mentioned above, in addition to
findings re histamine, chymase and more are extremely important and
have not gone forward due to lack of funding. Obviously the
blatant disregard, or deliberate avoidance, on the part of
the media does not help support funding for the sort of studies that
will, provide conclusive proof that close, chronic, prolonged
exposures, particularly as such findings apply to children three
years of age and younger (ages of most childhood Leukaemia patients).
The
review out of Dresden re cells, tissues and organs re EMF effects on
cells -- details below HVTL study info out of Australia -- is
very lengthy and offers explanations that apply to my guinea pig,
Kelley, who developed osteomyelitis and then improved when exposure was
reduced, along with a multitude of other cellular effects and
explanations re mechanisms. Kelley was suffering "a
myeleoproliferative disorder" and as most know, she did get well and go
on to live a healthy life for another two plus years in reduced EMF's
in our basement (except for the sewerpipe with higher than ambient
magnetic fields from the HVTL's that I didn't know about).
I have discovered recently (as you know), that resin-coating on the
plastic pipe may be explanation for the increase in the magnetic
field). Since Kelley died from "Reactive Renal
Amyloidosis," (a rare TSE-like disease involving protein misfolding --
and "amyloid accumulation"), the need to replicate close, chronic,
prolonged exposures can not be overemphasized!!!
On
your behalf, Olle, so you can "help save the children," I am once again
making a plea for funding for the sort of "specific,
definitive studies" you have agreed to do numerous
times. As we know, in reality, the studies themselves depend upon
backing from an organization such as Children With Leukaemia in London,
who are in an excellent position to provide the sort of publicity
required to get the results released to the public in a way that will
bring proper attention to parents and prospective parents
around-the-world.
What
IF those children who are being reported as being in the 5-fold
increased risk numbers were also sleeping next to electrical items such
as infant monitors, cordless phones, electric clocks or fans close to
the bed (bad wires, pipes near beds, appliances or electric or gas
meters on other side of bedroom walls, etc. etc. -- the list goes
on.......)? I read lately that more and more persons
take their children to bed with them. The children may have
only one of those items close to a crib such as a monitor but in the
parentx room, may be sleeping close to electric clocks, transformere
boxes for cordless phones and all of the other things I mentioned plus
more. I will be reporting on just such a
case re "multiple beds" later this week.
Studies
re "distance from electrical and telephone equipment" will provide "the
missing link" to epidemiological studies such as the new study out of
Australia re lymphoproliferative and myeleoproliferative
disorders. As you also agree, the details re close,
chronic EMF/EMR exposures are extremely important in order to help make
realistic determinations regarding safer distances from not only high
voltage powerlines but also, from cellular antennae, radio towers and
WiFi sources.
New
findings re the link between autism (other neurodegenerative disorders
such as Alzheimers and Parkinsons also) and low levels of melatonin,
combined with the sort of studies you are anxiously waiting to do, are
also opening-the-door to the realities of the need for everyone to
reduce bedside exposures in order to have maximum natural melatonin
protection.
I
have reported many times that I have documented improvement in my
husband, Bud -- (previously said to have Alzheimers) -- reduction or
actual disappearance re agitation and improvements in cognitive
function that I attribute to "good, healthy sleep" as result of
moving his electric clock radio off his nightstand and starting him on
melatonin. Considering the large numbers of persons
-- primarily children, who are being diagnosed with autism-like
disorders as well as increasing numbers of early onset Alzheimers, any
charity or organization who can get behind funding you for the specific
studies I have mentioned, will be making an invaluable contribution
toward "literally saving society.......!!!!"
Best
wishes to all for a better future!!!! Joanne

> Methods: Case-control study of 854 patients diagnosed with LPD or

> (including leukaemia, lymphoma and related conditions) aged 0-94
years
> comprising all cases diagnosed in Tasmania between 1972 and 1980.

> Results: Compared with those who had always lived >300 m from a

> those who had ever lived within 50 m had an odds ratio (OR) of
2.06 (95%
> confidence interval 0.87-4.91) for developing LPD or MPD (based on
