GENETICALLY ENGINEERED FOOD...GENETICALLY ENGINEERED THOUGHT?
(Jahi McMath right)
Since the Jahi McMath tragedy has been in the air I have pondered the idea that the decisions made by the adults in her life don't seem to make since given the reasoning for this little girl to be placed under a surgeons knife. I have wondered how much the food Jahi McMath and her family consumed played a part not only with her health condition but with how the adults in her life cognized information. Let me be clear, that I do no know what or how this family eats on a daily basis, but I am willing to bet they were like most people in the United States and consumed the Standard American Diet known to many of us as the SAD. Why else would this family be so easily led into surgery for this little girl?
Jahi McMath appears, for all intents and purposes, to be brain dead. Her mother admitted her to Childrens Hospital and Research [emphasis mine] Center Oakland in Northern California for what is supposed to be a routine surgery for the removal of her tonsils. Normally, the surgery woud be the cutting away or burning away of the oval shaped masses of lymphoid tissue found in our throats. Jahi McMath should have been out of the hospital enjoying her holiday meal and gifts like every other 13 year old this Christmas, but she is not. Jahi lays in a hospital bed living only with the help of a ventlator and life support.
After the surgery Nailah Winkfield, Jahi's mother, reported Jahi asked for a popsicle, but about 45 minutes later she was bleeding from her mouth. The nurses said this was normal and gave a cup to Jahi for the blood, but soon after she began to bleed from her mouth and nose profusely. The emergency alarm was sounded for room 10, Jahi's room, and she was whisked away to ICU, suffered cardiac arrest and by two a.m., placed on life supprt and later pronounced braid dead by physicians on duty. What was supposed to be routine surgery has now become a nightmare for this little girl and her family.
Why was young Jahi in the hospital in the first place? To have her tonsils removed. Doctors diagnosed young Miss McMath as suffering from sleep apnea after her mother brought her in because of her snorring. Nailah, Jahi's mom said "Jahi always snorred, but it had become worse and began affecting her school work due to poor attention span." Melinda Krigel, spokeswoman for Childrens Hospital and Research [emphasis mind] Center Oakland said "Jahi suffered from pediatric obstructive sleep apnea, which caused severe snorring, stop and go breathing in her sleep, a lack of attention span and urinating on herself." Jahi's uncle Omari Sealey also confirmed the diagnosis on CNN's Piers Morgan show, stating Jahi was recommended for surgery to remove her tonsils to relieve her of sleep apnea, to better her attention span, improve her sleeping and control her "uncontrolled" urination. Jahi's mother believed this was true, Jahi's grand mother, who by the way is a nurse, believed this and so Jahi was taken in for surgery on December 9th.
This is where the desire to fight white supremacy (which is really not a thing) as our primary enemy is at worst a grand distraction and at best a reminder that we are in constant battle. Yet, the battle is for our minds first and foremst and our bodies after that. But, the question remains as to why her mother, stepfather and adults in her life were so easily led to surgery? Shouldn't the question of diet have been raised by someone especially by the adults in Jahi's life when the word surgery was uttered? It surely should have stopped them and caused them to consider diet and exercise before surgery. Could the idea that likey Jahi's mother's thought process could not be as clears as it could be due to the diet she likely consumes? Modified foods could lead to modified thoughts.
Jahi should have been given the opportunity to reverse her illnesses naturely. Her mother shoujld have considered this before surgery. Bad diet, lack of real food, little to no exercise are the likely culprits that brought Jahi to the condition that she was in. Her mother was likely unable to see the connection between what Jahi ate and her medical condition. Surely, Nailah Winkfield herself could not think clearly as she is probably a consumer of the SAD. Her mind likely clouded by a constant three meal a day regimine of eating tainted foods and not enough cleansing foods. Eating without thought about what one is eating and never relating any condition she my suffer derives from the SAD. As I searched he web for information on this post I could see how little the web is searched for genetically modifed foods. We here in the blogsphere write of this menace, but we are unsuccessful in brining the information to the every day Joe and Joetta. Jahi McMath is likely laying brain dead in a "research" hospital brain dead equally from what she ate to the probable mistakes the surgeons may have made while she was sedated.
