Help! Time is running out for my family to file suit

against Rocketdyne now Boeing. Google: Simi Valley Rocketdyne Cancer

This is a re-post that I did on 3/29 in General Discussion. I got some good suggestions, but so far none have panned out, so I thought I would post it here and give it another try!

We need a lawyer to take our case! Here are the details:

Everyone in my family has cancer. I strongly believe that it is from contamination from a company (called Rocketdyne now called Boeing) we lived near for approx 30 or more years. We lived in Simi Valley CA about 40 miles North of Los Angeles.

Our findings are not consistent with genetic cancer. We were tested for the known genetic markers and we do not have them. Three of my family members were diagnosed with cancer just within a few weeks of each other in 2003. My mother age 75, one sister age 46, another sister 50. At age 42 I had abnormal biopsy cells but not yet cancer. Then my grandmother, my other sister age 38, brother age 28 in early 1980's. The common denominator with all of us was we lived in Simi Valley approximately 5 miles from Rocketdyne in the same house not far from The Brandeis Institute (won law suit on contaminated
water from Rocketdyne).

1. Families with genetic predisposition are diagnosed at the same age or close meaning everyone at age 46 or whatever age is in their genetic codes. We were diagnosed in the same year but at different ages. This is consistent with an environmental exposure.

2. Also even though the last three of us that were diagnosed with breast cancer in 2003, all of the breast cancers are so very different. My mother lobule. One sister with ductal with moderate aggression estrogen receptive negative. Another sister ductal highly aggressive estrogen receptor positive. Which means our cancer treatments are different. Different breast cancers different
treatment. Genetic cancers are of the same type.

3. My niece born in 1992, While her parents lived on Waltham St in Simi Valley died shortly after birth with no known cause but toxicology wasn't performed. Water tests done on Waltham St show extremely high levels of toxins.

4. Although we did move several places before settling 1966. The only place we all lived together in the same house was Simi Valley. It appears very likely that we were exposed at the same time to an environmental cause.

5. Toxins that Rocketdyne used have been shown to cause mammary cancer in mice.
