hello everyone, i’ll get straight to the point— my friend is stuck in Iraq because her parents tricked her into a one way trip. she was told that they would just be visiting family and vacationing, but by the end of the trip when they were supposed to start leaving, it was clear they were not going anywhere. her father ripped up her passport in front of her and now she is in need of a new passport, taxi funds to get to the US Embassy in Baghdad, money for a hotel to stay in, and a plane ticket. not to mention, when she comes back to the US she won’t have anywhere to stay or any of her belongings anymore. if you could DONATE even just a little bit, it would be greatly appreciated. please reblog this. some friends and i helped her make a gofundme because she’s unable to do so, here is the link, again PLEASE donate: https://www.gofundme.com/tricked-into-a-one-way-trip-to-iraq?utm_source=internal&utm_medium=email&utm_content=campaign_title&utm_campaign=donation_receiptv5

A woman working at an OB/GYN office, who was a breast cancer survivor, asked Dr. Barry W. King to look at a lesion on her vagina

The woman was concerned her cancer returned so she turned to King for help

King examined her, and afterwards told her to have her husband look at it later 

Once home she used the bathroom and noticed the toilet paper was purple

She recognized the purple as gentian violet, which is a dye used to treat different medical conditions but thought it wasn’t used anymore

When she went back to work, King acted giddy and confessed he pranked her 

She realized King also told several other people she worked with about the ‘joke’

She said in court she believes he was hoping she had sex with her husband and that it would dye his penis purple as part of the prank 

It’s old knowledge that, unless you’re involved in mining, mineralogy, or occupational health & safety, has been deliberately buried from both the public’s and regulators’ knowledge.

CNBC’s article + their writeup on the Reuters report revealing J&J’s cover-ups go into more detail on their corporate liability and the impact of J&J’s products specifically…

…But I cannot overstate that people’s best option right now is to look for products in general that do not contain talc at all, regardless of the manufacturer, and to be vigilant in seeking appropriate healthcare (and/or legal action if required) if symptoms arise.

This goes for body use (diaper powder, chafing powder— this is where the cases of ovarian cancer are coming from), for any use where powder may be inhaled (hair, face), or will have prolonged exposure to mucus membranes (eye makeup, bath bombs, etc.).
