Fluoride still on minds of many people

On Aug. 8, my sister was diagnosed with bone cancer. She is fighting for her life. As many of us are aware, fluoride causes bone cancer. I wonder what kind of chance she will have if the water is fluoridated? When bathing or showering in fluoridated water, the pores soak it in and it attaches to the calcium, then into the bone. Our stepfather died in 2005 from cancer, and our mother died in 2006, also from cancer. They all lived in fluoridated areas. This is a plea to ask everyone that is against water fluoridation to help keep it out of the water, for my sister. Please call, write or e-mail Commissioners Don Munks and Ken Dahlstedt and tell them this must not happen, that people’s lives are at stake.
