The funny side of mercury poisoning

…if there is such a thing…

This was posted by one of the group’s members, Brian McBlain.  Since mercury toxicity causes chronic fatigue, severe memory loss, loss of coordination, personality changes, etc., many folks have lost their jobs because of it.

*** Employability: A few of us are approaching sufficient memory, stress, and general functionality to re-enter the work force.

Explaining the employment gap is going to be fun…

10. Took some time off to test my metal.
9. Wanted to get in touch with my inner ore.
8. Heavy metal toxicity made me allergic to work.
7. My memory got so bad I couldn’t remember appointments like work.
6. I kept getting lost in my driveway.
5. It is hard to dress for success when you can’t get out of bed.
4. I thought I get in touch with my asocial side.
3. I tried putting pants on one leg at a time and kept falling over.
2. I’d drive to work and not find it.

Funny because it’s so true, especially to the more toxic of us.

When my brain was saturated with mercury, I got to the point where my hands were shaking, as in Parkinson’s. I could not hold a thought in my head.  Even though I loved to read, it was torture because I had to keep re-reading the same passages over and over because of the severity of ADD and memory loss.

The worst day–the lowest point–was when I couldn’t remember my own children’s names.  It was then that I knew that something was terribly wrong–and no freaking doctor could diagnose the  root cause.  Thanks to my guardian angel for leading me to the answer and not giving up on me.
