Spraying with Dursban for fleas in Santa Barbara.  Woman dies of breast cancer

I found your website by looking for Dursban LO when I ran across some of the letters my twin had written trying to get help in 1993 when she was severely poisoned when they sprayed her office for fleas at the County of Santa Barbara.

Judy died last year of cancer. She had had a small lump in the breast, removed, no involvement in the lymph nodes, then it spread to her liver and then finally took her life. She was 59. Dursban is said to attack breast and liver. I believe she was killed by this and faced complete opposition and denial of it from her workplace and the doctors they sent her to (but not the ones she went to on her own, who varified she was vitally ill from the pesticide).

Judy was my identical twin. I will never be the same now, with her gone. She would not sue them when it happened because she had to depend on her employment, and she was too sick (allergies, severe headaches and vomiting, sinus infection constantly) to try to. Others were poisoned by the same incident.

I hope you spread this far all over the world and I totally agree with you and your concern for the world, humans, animals, water, insects, all of life.
