Over the last four decades, as we contemplated and researched the principles in our book, it has been difficult to watch suffering around us, knowing patients could be helped by better diagnosis and treatment. Carolyn represented patients with eye injuries for more than thirty years; thus, one of the hardest for her to watch has been the development of clusters of ocular melanoma (OM). OM robs young patients of their eyes, and takes the lives of too many victims—and the problem is growing! As the problem grows, investigators are less likely to admit a cluster, because the incidence of OM in clusters is less dramatic as compared to the incidence around the country. Our book explains the causes of OM clusters, in Auburn and Huntersville, and the reasons for our belief. See “The Origin of Disease: The War Within”, Chapter 12, Chronic Infection in Cancer.
The investigation team for OM has to date searched common social links and abnormal genes; and each member of the team focused only on their individual specialty. No one appears to have researched the medical literature, to make reasoned conclusions on possible causes; and none considered the potential for infectious causes.
Scientific studies have identified five infectious pathogens which have been “associated” with OM, one of which is a common bird pathogen—chlamydia psittacosis. We believe the OM clusters were caused by chlamydia psittacosis, alone or a combination with one or more co-infections with the other four pathogens. Chlamydia psittacosis causes the same eye cancer in birds, and animal pathogens often cause the same disease in both animals and humans. Some ocular melanoma victims have already developed secondary cancers, of the liver, pancreas and brain, which have also been “associated” with chlamydia psittacosis.
Researching potential infectious causes in OM is the beginning of helping those afflicted improve their prognosis, and the beginning of new discoveries in other types of cancer. Tomorrow we will post the many reasons supporting chlamydia psittacosis as the cause of the OM cases in Alabama, North Carolina, and New York, alone or as a co-infection.
