Dear Peter Giusti, Tim Hanke and the entire Scleroderma Foundation, I am sending this to you all and to this entire Scleroderma organization because PJ Brent from Atlanta, GA (now dead) has two daughters who took "hits" from their mother's failed breast implants via the placental barrier through fetal cells in autoimmunity do indeed have a scleroderma~LIKE swallowing disorder!

What do we as humans, the general public do with our children who have taken "hits" of this toxic adjuvant~silicone,breast implants/the catalysts and the time factor of exposure, along with or without a genetic predisposition and now have scleroderma, morphea/skin changes and/or the swallowing problems, and/or the scleroderma-LIKE health concerns?

Where is the medical direction, the compassion, the valid studies, the open-mindedness from the physicians who are the "best of the best", the funding for the studies for those of us who have been clearly exposed to toxic breast implants, (silicone OR saline WITH A SILICONE SHELL, none of which these so-called medical devices of an illusion of the mind have NEVER, EVER been FDA approved to be "safe or have acceptable risks") and we have scleroderma, morphea, a swallowing disorder, lung/breathing problems, contractures & much, much more...

What about the offspring, the innocent children? Breastfeeding is simply extra "hits". The researcher can make the study fall anyway he wishes, but when people and innocent children are sick and the common thread with the UNIQUE SYMPTOMS are showing up like what is going on with breast implants, then somebody better start waking up real fast. You as an organization have knowledge of others with scleroderma, scleroderma-like problems who need medical direction and compassion. Children too! After all, we are all

children in aging skin! Breast implants EXERTS, ENHANCES the immune system, human adjuvant disease, genetic adjuvant disease, both the same diseases...along with the different LOT#'s that the person is exposed to.

Different triggers will produce different symptoms, sometimes UNIQUE symptoms IF one observes well. We are leading lives as we are taking "hits" of our toxic environment! And nothing could be more toxic than having a NOT PROVEN so-called medical device in the chest wall 24/7, around the clock as we age...as the offspring take "hits" also, via the placental barrier through fetal cells in autoimmunity.

I do know what I am talking about as I have a front row seat to watch what happens to my own daughters who took "hits" from my very own extremely failed silicone and double lumen breast implants. I ask you all as an organization, is it best to let nature just run its course with our Hilary who has aggressive scleroderma moving up her body, a swallowing disorder, petit mal seizures, allergies, abnormal sterols, a severe acral bone dysplasia of the hands/feet, who is going through an advanced aging process so her genetics doctor states...her body is screaming out to everyone in volumes that she took massive "hits" from my very failed breast implants .

She is not alone either as there are many. Personally, I really do not think that scleroderma, morphea is really all that rare. Physicans just failed to note it in their patient for whatever reason. The physician may even pass off scleroderma-LIKE problems as simply dry skin or something else...but they fail to note the different stages the skin goes into. There is always time and space to learn more in medicine. Nobody knows it all in medicine.

The immune system is extremely intelligent, but the environmental trigger is even more keen as it fakes out the immune response.

Please listen to the volumes of the human body in a child, in this child, Hilary Morrissey, in the other children, in all the people...as scleroderma has soooo many VOICES! The human body is speaking. It is now time for the physician to become an immune response whisperer! Listen to the words of the immune response.

Is is best if one day our Hilary dies that I find the "best of the best" in research who really cares to uphold medicine, science and research to its highest standard of DO NO HARM with breast implants...to "gut her like a fish" for others to learn more, to help others not suffer? To learn more about scleroderma, morphea, genetic predispositions/"clustering' of autoimmunity, a "two hit" theory along with MICRHCHIMERISM/GVHD~fetal cells in autoimmunity, HLA-typing, breast implants and the catalysts, and all this along with HERVs, ALUs and jumping genes in this whole process.

Does this sound cruel coming from the mother who would lay down her life for her child? Please, do not fault me. This is difficult to deal with. I did not know I was going to be faced with all of this when I was a teenage plastic surgery patient in 1976. This child as is everyone else who suffers from scleroderma, whatever form, no matter if scleroderma-LIKE or whatever has a great purpose in this life.

I just wanted you to know PJ Brent who was my co-chair to Toxic 2 Kids. We were two peas in a pod. Walking on the same path in life...the common thread, breast implants and our children who took "hits" via the placental barrier through fetal cells in autoimmunity. Breastfeeding, extra "hits". Failed, not proven, very toxic breast implants brought us and many others together.

DIED: MAY 29, 2000~MEMORIAL DAY

Lord, guide me on this journey I make,

For there is the high and low road I can take,

Four-lane highways, that go quite fast,

Filled with so many going past.

The road I have chosen the highest, winding road

With ruts and hills, not smoothly paved,

Praying I will be strong and brave

That my soul is in a place

Where love everlasting comes with God's grace.

_____________________________________________

PJ is indeed where love everlasting comes with God's grace. Greatly missed by so very many! And she who rocks the cradle does rule the world! God, Our Holy Father is with all of us who were exposed to breast implants, the very innocent children included who took "hits" of this very toxic adjuvant~silicone, the catalysts and the time factor of exposure via the placental barrier through fetal cells in autoimmunity. Breastfeeding was simply extra "hits". Breast implants pulled our trigger in our youth, via the placental barrier with the offspring! The mission continues on even though PJ Brent is gone, as others have picked up her heavy cross that she carried for the sake of her children and husband she left behind. We, who were exposed to breast implants continue on...as footsoldiers this Memorial Day weekend. As all we want in life is for medicine, science and research, those who are the "best of the best" in medicine to take the highest road.To uphold medicine to that highest standard of DO NO HARM. A simple request from a simple housewife here in North Missouri. Please join me in memory of PJ Brent from Atlanta, GA this Memorial Day 2001.
