Ground Zero First Responders Complain of Rare Cancers, Officials Fail To Recognize Link

Monday, August 1st, 2011

According to CBS News, rescuers and first responders who bravely worked at ground zero in New York immediately and days after 9/11 attacks voiced their anger and disappointment at a town hall meeting about a $2.8 billion federal fund for them. A few dozen gathered at the meeting saying they became ill after working at ground zero, and were angered that federal officials had announced that those with cancer will continue to be excluded from the federal help for those who say they were sickened while working at the World Trade Center wreckage.

Retired police detective John Marshall made an argument by standing and speaking through a breathing tube he has needed since treatment for throat cancer. First responders believe their cancer is connected to the cloud of toxins that bellowed from the destruction of the twin towers. The National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health ruled after a review that there was very little evidence on the link between the massive toxic cloud and cancer.

Senator Charles Schumer called the report premature, saying that some any people have gotten such rare cancers and at a young age that it seems obvious a link must exist. Senator Kirsten Gillbrand called for accelerated research and data collection to examine links between cancer and exposure to toxins at ground zero.

Lethal Weapon 3 rip When cancer manifests in your body, it sends off subtle signals of its presence. Here is a list of some symptoms that often go unnoticed.

*Changes in nipples or breasts on one side — This may be an early sign of breast cancer. Look for unexplained redness, swelling, discharges, dimples, lumps or rough spots as well as inverted or turned nipples.

*Unusual bleeding — This could be a warning for cervical, uterine, or colorectal cancer. Watch out for unusual pain or unpleasant odors, bleeding after intercourse, blood in urine, blood in stool, or periods that are unexpected, unusually heavy, and painful.

*Change in bowel or bladder — Continual constipation, diarrhea, stomach aches, increase in urination, pain while urinating, or pain while having a bowel movement could be related to colon, bladder, or kidney cancer.
