They should also do a video of a Morgellons sufferer watching the video for the first time to capture the emotion the sufferer really goes through in watching and identifying with it.
The lady at the window. The isolation. Made me cry.

One of the best parts as JJ pointed out is the selfless aspect you added. It touches deep into the the emotions a parent goes thru and you thought to mention the "Children". That aspect really needed to be brought to light just as you did it! The best I've seen yet!

Grady,can you tell me what the "canary" symbolized? I found this info: www.wisegeek.com/what-does-it-mean-to-be-a-canary-in-a-coal-mine.htmWhat does It Mean to be a "Canary in a Coal Mine"? Life for an actual canary in a coal mine could be described in three words - short but meaningful. Early coal mines did not feature ventilation systems, so miners would routinely bring a caged canary into new coal seams. Canaries are especially sensitive to methane and carbon monoxide, which made them ideal for detecting any dangerous gas build-ups. As long as the canary in a coal mine kept singing, the miners knew their air supply was safe. A dead canary in a coal mine signalled an immediate evacuation. Even as gas detection technology improved, some mining companies still relied on the 'canary in a coal mine' method well into the 20th century. Other animals were used occasionally, but only the canary had the ability to detect small concentrations of gas and react instinctively. Today, the practice of using a canary in a coal mine has become part of coal mining lore, but the ideology behind it has become a popular expression. The phrase living like a canary in a coal mine often refers to serving as a warning to others. The actual canary in a coal mine had little control over its fate, but it continued to sing anyway. In one sense, living like a canary in a coal mine indicates a willingness to experience life's dangers without compromise. In another sense, many business and political analysts use the term canary in a coal mine to describe a harbinger of the future. A melting glacier in Alaska, for example, may be described as a canary in a coal mine for global warming. One small event in an isolated area may not seem especially noteworthy, but it may offer the first tangible warning of a larger problem developing. In a political sense, a country's delegation abruptly leaving a meeting could be described as a canary in a coal mine for future negotiations. Some large corporations also use a 'canary in a coal mine' strategy for future growth or reduction. A small company may be used to test the waters for a new product line, for instance. Even if the company only experiences modest profits or losses, the parent corporation can evaluate the feasibility of the product without risking a large investment. By carefully observing a canary in a coal mine, industries can avoid major failures down the road or benefit from a jump on the competition.
