A Shocking Truth
RECEIVED Mon., Aug. 17, 2020
Dear Editor,
I write on this issue as many of my peers impacted cannot as a result of what I will share. I am a retired trauma nurse that assisted in bringing the current national product liability suit. Many have acquired repeated traumatic brain injuries secondary to consenting to the procedure called electroshock/ECT. This is being used for many conditions and no longer as a last resort. There is a significant increase in suicide following. No FDA testing for safety or effectiveness. Used at leading facilities. If you live in or near a moderate size city some hospital is using this. Used also on our children and veterans. Two class actions taking place around this issue in both USA and in England secondary to damages from this practice. Dr. Bennet Omalu famous for findings of CTE in the NFL is now on record stating the same anticipated in ECT patients given repeated brain injuries from electrical trauma. All systems impacted by electrical trauma and ALS also a risk.
See www.ect.org, www.endofshock.com, www.ectjustice.com, and Youtube site Life After ECT. Book by Linda Andre called Doctors of Deception. Please go on public social media and discuss this issue so others are informed. Given COVID and the mental distress many are at risk for being offered this. My gratitude.
