Long-term health effects of exposure to benzene
The major effect of benzene from long-term exposure is on the blood.
(Long-term exposure means exposure of a year or more.) Benzene causes
harmful effects on the bone marrow and can cause a decrease in red blood
cells, leading to anemia. It can also cause excessive bleeding and can
affect the immune system, increasing the chance for infection.
Some women who breathed high levels of benzene for many months had irregular
menstrual periods and a decrease in the size of their ovaries. It is not
known whether benzene exposure affects the developing fetus in pregnant
women or fertility in men.
Animal studies have shown low birth weights, delayed bone formation, and
bone marrow damage when pregnant animals breathed benzene.
The Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) has determined that
benzene causes cancer in humans. Long-term exposure to high levels of
benzene in the air can cause leukemia, cancer of the blood-forming organs.

Colonel Dan, I need help finding anyone who sprayed agent orange in vietnam.
Anyone who mixed AO with diesel, kerosene, gasoline to spray.
This is very important, possibly to hundreds, if not thousands of Vets.
Can you put out the word.I have statements from New Zealand, Australian
vets, but need 1st hand accounts from US Vets.

I have a bone marrow disease Myelofibrosis, I'm terminal have 1 maybe two
years, according to my DR. I have just completed my final BVA via a
teleconference with a Judge in DC, April 30. I supplied information and my
research regarding my illness. I have battled this claim for 4 years for
recognition as caused by AO. My illness is one of many directly linked to
Benzene, leukemias, etc. Mixing AO with kerosene, deisel fuel, gasoline to
spray, directly caused my illness, and the many other cancers VETS are
suffering from. This could answer many cases for Vets. The VA mandate to
research AO, only included AO and it's components. These studies were and
are limited to just that, failing to recognize the total picture. benzene is
the cause of many Vets problems. My congressman, Gary Miller, CA has helped
my effort. He suggests I write congress and suggest hearings regarding this,
and allow congress to mandate further studies.
I need to this for all the families and those Vets, fighting for other
related diseases, unknowlingly caused by Benzene.

Having Myelofibrosis recognized as caused by AO, will open the door wide
for those Vets, suffering MPD's Benzene is absolutely known to cause many
cancers. Bone marrow depression, immunilogical deficiencies, etc Recognition
will greatly advance the solutions for Vets.

Look what Benzene causes online, you;ll see what I;m talking about.

This, I pray will be a legacy of mine to help them.
Testimonies of Vets, who mixed these deadly components, who support my
premise.
Please help

Please help,
Marvin Derrick
