How do you make the people who own these gas wells and sludge pits pay for giving my son histoplasmosis capul?


He has histoplasmosis capulitis and now is having to have his second heart transplant, he is 4. We are going to loose everything because of this. What can we do?

I am sorry for the problems your son is encountering. But, neither gas wells or sludge pits have anything to do with causing Histoplasmosis. Histoplasmosis is caused by the fungal organism Histoplasma capsulatum. It is a common soil organism.

Most people in the eastern portion of the US have had non-symptomatic cases at some point in their life. Histo cases have symptoms similar to a cold or mild flu. Very few people develop severe disease but it is always a posibility. The young and elderly are more likely to have involved disease.

Histoplasma outbreaks are often, but not always, associated with high concentrations of bird droppings, such as roosting sites. The micro-environment of the droppings is perfect for high levels of spore production. The macrospores produced must be inhaled to initiate infection. Usually high numbers of spores are necessary. The infection is not contagious.

I would like to give you an answer that would give you comfort but it is highly unlikely that any attorney could convince a jury that the gas wells and sludge pits are the cause of your sons infection, particularly since it is commonly seen in areas that have no wells or pits.

Can you proove that's the cause? if so contact a lawyer they'll help you out.

Seek out a good attorney who specializes in Health related law suits. I'm surprised you haven't done this all ready.

YOu should contact a lawyer, maybe personal injury, and ask how you prove that this is the cause. Something should be done, not only to help your family, but to help this from happening to poor innocent people in the future.

How can you prove he got it from that? And more importantly why was a four-year-old anywhere near one?

get a good lawyer
