Review for Association Of Birth Defect Children, Inc. dba Birth Defect Research for Children, Orlando, FL, USA
My family was injured by pesticides in 1991 resulting in chronic illnesses which plague us all to this day. Betty Mekdeci, the director of Association of Birth Defect Children, has been an inspiration. She and ABDC have been an excellent source of information about how to understand the linkages between exposures and disease, and this has helped us avoid further damage. Sure, ABDC is about research about birth defects, but many of us suffer from toxicant induced illnesses that surfaced in adulthood. ABDC seized the opportunity to inspire chemically injured persons such as myself, making us willing to teach others in our communities so that they and their offspring may enjoy more healthful lives. ABDC has a reputation for integrity, intelligence, and heart -- and has done an amazing job of gathering and analyzing toxic injury data showing patterns of birth defects and chronic illness.
