Wesley believes that the excessive amount of toxins present in their home caused her daughter’s mysterious illness. The house they lived in was filled with asbestos, mushy walls, and black mold.

By the time they moved to Fort Sill, Oklahoma, Calina was very sick and suffering more than 100 seizures a day, during which her brain could not receive oxygen. She has the mental capacity of a child half her age and can no longer recite the alphabet.
Asbestos exposure has been linked to various forms of cancer, including mesothelioma.

The Wesleys hope that releasing their story will encourage others in the neighborhood to do so as well. Raising awareness may get parents to remove their children from dangerous environments before they suffer as Calina has.

buy Captain Ron In April of 2003, James Gentry arrived in Southern Iraq to take command of more than 600 Indiana National Guardsmen who were protecting KBR contractors working at a local watering plant.

“We didn’t question what we were doing, we just knew we had to provide a security service for the KBR,” said Battalion Cmdr. Gentry. But today, James Gentry is dying from a rare form of lung cancer as a result of months of inhaling hexavalent chromium, an orange dust that is part of a toxic chemical found all over the plant.

At least one other Indiana guardsman has already died from lung cancer, and others are suffering from tumors and rashes consistent with exposure to the toxin.

There is evidence that indicates KBR knew about the deadly exposure danger months before the soldiers were informed. Depositions from KBR employees addressed concerns about the toxin in one part of the plant as early as May of 2003. KBR minutes from a later meeting state that “60 percent of the people … exhibit symptoms of exposure,” including bloody noses and rashes.

In a statement, the multi-billion dollar contractor told CBS News: “We deny the assertion that KBR harmed troops and was responsible for an unsafe condition.”

KBR says it notified the Army as soon as it identified the toxin, but some Indiana guardsmen say they only just learned of the risk. “I didn’t know I was exposed to a deadly carcinogen until five years later when I received a letter,” said Indiana National Guardsman Jody Aistrop.

Lt. Col. Clarence Counts, a public affairs officer at the base, said an unknown number of soldiers removed floor tiles last week and the tiles are now being tested to see if they contain contaminants. Counts has said that environmental officials have sealed and cleaned the contaminated barrack.

The barrack was built during the Vietnam War, and is in the midst of renovations. Soldiers who ripped up tiles were not given masks or other safety equipment to protect them from the potentially hazardous asbestos dust in the air.

Colchiski claims to have had a sample of the floor tiles tested in a laboratory and staed that the sampled contained over 25% asbestos.

The major defense contractor KBR Inc is being sued by 16 Indiana National Guard soldiers. The suit claims its employees knowingly allowed the soldiers to be exposed to a toxic chemical in Iraq five years ago.

The suit alleges the soldiers from a Tell City-based unit were exposed to a sodium dichromate, a known carcinogen, while protecting an Iraqi water pumping plant shortly after the U.S. invasion in 2003. The suit also claims that the Houston-based KBR knew at least as early as May 2003 that the plant was contaminated, but concealed the danger from civilian workers and 139 soldiers.

Suspiria divx Merlin’s Apprentice download The chemical, used to remove pipe corrosion, is especially dangerous because it contains hexavalent chromium, which is known to cause birth defects and cancer, particularly lung cancer, the lawsuit said. The cancer can take years to develops. Some of the soldiers who served at the site now have respiratory system tumors associated with hexavalent chromium exposure.
