When I was nine my father died leaving my mom to raise us seven kids. We had to move to a bigger town so mom could work. So we all moved to Kingman in 1952.

I can also remember our teachers taking all the students out side to look at the sky when the government did their bomb testing. The different colors were beautiful; beautiful but deadly. My mom thought it was the northern lights making our skys look so pretty.

Well my mom Juanita (Nita) Dunham died after a seven year battle with breast cancer in 1970. I helped take car of her, the last two years were very bad.

I also had two sisters that died of brain tumors, my youngest sister Juanita (Chickie) (Dunham) Northern in 1987 at the age of 42 and my oldest sister Pat (Dunham) Lauver in 2002 at age 62. Both of these women suffered terrible pain.

Isn't it a shame that our government's lie is killing so many people.
