More responses to reader experiencing Dow settlement issues. (1)
Hi everyone, and, Sandra,
Its my, opinion- A women, from every BI manufacture should have sat on this
Panel/committee! We, would have held them all liable, notified our sister's of any changes (asked for their in put an opinions before agreeing to a Single thing) that was an absolute necessity to be made to; the original Dow Settlement Plan! If it didn't profit, us in some way; it would have been Voted down by those women serving on the committee. Dow, has been allowed to change this litigation to suit themselves to many times; and continue to stall paying their victims how many years while bribing medical institutes, physicians, pulling the wool over the FDA and setting the criteria for studies ran on breast implants..ex. the mayo study, the FDA refers to still.. that was hog wash Dow, paid for themselves. There are some great atty.'s and some real jerks that thought it was a way to make some fast money. The firms left in this litigation aren't going to make a cent. They've spent more than they'll ever recover. I've, had ton's of phone calls from; women and men who's atty.'s took all there medical records and split Leaving without notifying them they were quitting. If I knew a really good atty. in there area, I'd recommend they contact them- or I'd refer them to KKJ for assistance's.There are women, having problems an are ill from, the new gummy bear breast implants al ready. They were in the Inamed, or Mentor Study. It
seems their, PS isn't following the proper protocol set forth by not reporting them to the FDA. I've, turned their names over to, KKJ. an encouranged them to report these new gummy bear implants to the FDA,+ mentor, Inamed themselves plus their PS for being deceptive and not following the proper ethics or protocol he's bound by when using these new faulty Breast implants! They turn to lumps. Just like I figured left out jell0 would do.The cohort study proves, Dow Chemical was guilty from the beginning of
the breast implant issue and designing these toxic bags of silicone in Dow Chemicals own labs. Then, Gerow and Crowin began implanting; women in Texas first. The rest is a horror story full of lies, deceit, bought off PR by, Dow Chemical when they lost the first 5 trials and had the worst incriminating evidence against them locked away forever; as part of the Deal. One sister that settled before, Dow file bankruptcy told me years ago- if there was some way we, could get into those, women's Files- it would be all we'd need to win our cases also. Dr. Patten, was to close in putting out a study of his own that would tie breast implants to, MS an other diseases with BI's as the direct causation. Dr. Campbell, was destroyed by nasty, Dow also, along with; Pierre Blasé, and Tom Talcott for the same reasons! They could all prove, Dow Chemical was involved in the manufacturing of; these toxic faulty killer devices. What bothers me the most is why the, FDA never in over 30 years made; Dow or any other BI manufacture prove these medical devices were safe for human use? There was plenty of press on the negative side effects, and more than enough reasons before now and the new gummy bear implants to come to a conclusion breast implants were harming children, and Women's health.They paid off the men that had penile implants, because
they didn't want men in the news claiming they were ill from a silicone Medical device. The world would listen and feel sorry for a man that had lost his scrotum or penis to a silicone device. Every jury would award a man the top amount, Dow had no recourse with them other than to pay up! With breast Implants, Dow could say about any thing concerning a woman whether it was true or not. And proceeded to do just that, we were called un flattering false disgusting names. The dark, Marsha Angell turned her wicked pen on us, for a hefty fee$! Sybil G. isn't/ hasn't ever gone without medication; or a place to live like half of the women. I, don't be grudge anyone that has more than I do. When it comes to making decisions that effect what we'll, eventually receive it's my opinion some of the sisters could have made better decisions for everyone._______________________________________________________

So if Dow is waiting for these new implants to
exonerate them it will never happen, even the moron plastic surgeons refer to them as the new and improved implants.
I also do think the CAC has failed the women miserably this has always been about Dow, it has been bout the attorneys using this settlement as one big slush fund for there disposal. There should of in my view been a committee set up right from the get go of implanted women from all over the world not just one implant woman from California, we needed a stronger voice and we needed our input in this, as it was in my view never there for us.
You look at how the auditors get to audit this fund quarterly and get god knows how much, look at how judges rulings are made quite quickly when it comes to attorneys pay schedules, look how long it drags out when we are being screwed for a small pitance for diseases under the A payment in disease option 1 where is anyone looking out for us? There should of been a ruling on this, this should never of gotten to where it is today had the negotiations been done prior to settlements even being paid out, my god they drug the negotiatons out for how many years and it seems everything has to go back in front of the Judge WHY?
In my opinion this settlement and how they lied to us about having to accept it without disclosing the terms to us is a situation where I think this should of crashed and been restarted. They are going to try and wear us down when it comes to the A payment as well. The rupture categorey also why was that such a farce why is that being denied why when even if silicone bleeds into a woman should she not be compensated? it is because Dow once again got a deal in there favor when they damn well knew the health risks. No one again looked out for us.
I should think this class action suit will go down in history as the worst ever negotiated for the victims.
I want to know how much of the fund is going to attorneys and others as well? I can only imagine does anyone think they wait to get paid maybe we should have the right to hold deficiencies on them for a poor job done.

I am like, Ruby. One of, my physician's closed the door without notifying us; an our Medical records are no here to be located in, Texas. I, took paper's for, women to fill out to become a part of the class action litigation against Breast Implants to this Physician's office at their request. This physician most diffidently believed my, Breast Implants were the causation of the illness I was having/being diagnosed with then and continue to be diagnosed every time I go to the DR. S now.
Dow Chemical, Corning, have intentionally stalled the entire litigation process in hopes The FDA would approve a new Breast Implant as safe; therefore the disease criteria won't Be worth the paper the Settlement Plan was written on! That was, Dow's Plan from the beginning. No, women should have ever been sent to a; Dow Dr.! Who, ruined their entire suit against, Dow and now they have no recourse to bring suit against Dow again! Wouldn't that fall under part of, the CAC committees duties- to protect the, women against Dow's evil stunts
