(1 post)I can assure you we forbid ANY posts with political overtones specifically because we were desperately trying to get the main stream media on board and knew their reluctance was because Conservative media had embraced it. Weekly, large groups of members targeted specific main stream media outlets encouraging them to do the right thing. Also Deval Patrick and Elizabeth Warren as well as the president were inundated with thousands of polite emails. They refused to help. How sad is it that your political affiliation would make people refuse to read the facts or help a child who's health was clearly failing? Justina's abdomen became burgundy in color, her hair fell out half way back, her legs developed severe edema which was indicative of heart issues present in Mitochondrial disease and she could no longer walk yet BCH dug in their heels to complete their research instead of caring that this child's health was plummeting. What would cause these obvious symptoms other than medical experimentation? This political division and lack of mutual respect hurts us all. We need to view this as Americans who know best what our children need instead of blind faith that if our party says it's so, it must be.
