Awful news...

You may remember (esp Sandi who helped me immensely) that I was fighting QS4 in April/May, who wanted to put six antennae on the Church my daughter attends, and that my friend had just moved down the road from.

Permission was granted (despite letters to Planning) at 'officer level' so residents didn't even get a say in the matter.

My friend rang me this morning to tell me that one of her neighbours (who lives 180 metres away) was told yesterday that she has developed leukaemia (apparently in the last week) and is going into hospital today for further tests and chemo today. It's just horrible.

I've emailed the agent to find out exactly when the installation was switched on - I'm not mentioning my friends neighbour at the moment.

I'm really not sure what to do - I was wondering if it might be worth getting the signal strengths etc properly documented... My friend (and I) feel that the family should be informed, not least for the sake of the lady's young children, but she is understandably loathe to upset them further at this stage, while the news is still sinking in.

I've haven't gone into too many specifics on this public forum, but would certainly appreciate any ideas and suggestions. My email is ashields_at_onetel.net

Thanks - Angie
