WHIRLWIND COALITION

The motto on this page is if regular people don't care then why should the politicians..............This page was set up in May 2006 when I realized George Tabb and a heck of a lot of people (up to 70,000) who were exposed to and many currently sick from unwitting exposure to a dangerous cocktail of chemicals released at Ground Zero in Lower Manhattan in the wake of 9/11 could not afford their medical bills or in many cases didn't realize that they should even be monitoring their health in regards to that exposure.......also, that a lot of regular people didn't even know what was going on because of in large part a deliberate media blackout for 5 years (and which to some extant still exists or information and progress is in fact being propagandized). Unfortunately even when there IS a story one week but not in next week's paper people assume the problems have been rectified. Far from it.WHICH BRINGS ME TO GEORGE TABB: George, nearby resident of The World Trade Center and one of the volunteers in the aftermath was soon an early whistleblower predicting a future cancer cluster and interviewed by Brian Williams on MSNBC, People Magazine and The Washington Post, the few media outlets back then that dared touch the story of the true aftermath of 9/11, right before everyone in the media at large was instructed to shut up about it, or perhaps thought it not important enough to cover. Now that the media veil has been lifted somewhat (although it's still being treated as a 'local issue' more people realize the existence and severity of this problem that's a great start however many affected and in danger of dying way before their time, such as the heroic first responders who are not allowed to even speak to media as they have been threatened with loss of pension, there is a long way to go and people are still very much in trouble at this point. Many of the first responders extremely sick are being denied disability even though their conditions were job related (everybody being sick with the same laundry list of illnesses) must still report for work so as not to lose benefits for their families on top of struggling with mounting medical bills and losing everything they've worked their whole lives for. That's just speaking of the first responders, there were many others unwittingly exposed: nearby residents, volunteers, children other individuals who worked nearby or there for various reasons from all over.................This is a solvable problem. Release 'allocated funds' to those who need it so they don't drop dead way before their time. It's that simple (except for the part about red tape yes) however, simple as that goal is, it's not over yet, it's just beginning for those affected. The victims of the aftermath coverups who at this time cannot afford proper medical help, needed operations, medication, oxygen tanks for breathing problems are dropping dead left and right to put it bluntly and none of them need to with proper medical care: Things being diagnosed and treated promptly, need help. Also, the National Birth Defect Registry sponsored by the Birth Defect Research for Children, INC. has agreed to help collect data regarding the birth defects of children born to those working in Rescue and Recovery. The effects of the exposure will be around for a long time. So George Tabb the last few years due to his own exposure has been grappling with severe health problems and has been spending all his time trudging back and forth to doctors and specialists when he can afford to that is. There's a lot of folks like him all sickened by the same thing. Politicians pledging and allocating money to actually help Ground Zero Victims: Where is it? Unfortunately due to governmental red tape, the two federally funded clinics are only allowed to ‘deal with’ certain ailments and illnesses caused by the toxicity meaning the programs are by no means comprehensive, George was just diagnosed with Polycystic kidney Disease which he was told they would not treat because that is something that is inherited at birth so they will even look into other symptons caused by that -and no one in his family has ever had that. Polysystic kidney disease has been proven to be caused by extreme exposure to harmful cheicals in lab mice, but not in humans.......So basically George Tabb is one of many who are being further harmed and left to die by old fashioned bureaucratic red tape and denials. Now, to those few who may cynically say "Why don't we go after the terrorists who caused 9/11 to pay victims med bills.". Well, who caused the attack is not the issue at all, it was factions of the United States Government that caused tens of thousands of people to become poisoned unbeknownst to them, and, who will be coming down with the same laundry list of illness and not be aware until it's too late to treat any of it. George and all the others sickened in the aftermath and those becoming sick now are ordinary human beings WHO NEED THE REST OF US to shout from the rooftops and rattle chains and not let them be shoved under the rug again... The term 'Bystander effect' applies. Being in pain, having trouble breathing, needing operations, things removed, being beleaguered by new infections, not being properly helped medically, all because of the coverups and repeated denials for many years by the Current Federal Government and then millions of dollars allotted to help is not going where it should be going is beyond ugly.. Families will have exhausted their life savings, lost their houses, gone deeply into debt before any of this is resolved 'in the victims favor' in the court system. There are times when b red tape merely waits for people to die and the problem goes away. I don't want to wait and see if bureaucracy can resolve the issue of their medical expenses. Justice comes a little too late for people 6 feet under. Having ones name postumously scratched on a wall is of no comfort to the families and friends they’ve left behind. If Spiderman saw something wrong he'd jump in and correct things without thinking about any of the sociopolitical or sociopolite aspects. It all starts by lifting one or a few people up at a time. ..... -Monica Nelson
