“Heather Millar was 30 years old when she felt that first tightness in her chest. A registered nurse with nine years in pediatric care, she was working on a short-term contract in San Antonio, Tex. when waves of exhaustion washed over her . . .” (Nicole Parton, The Vancouver Sun, November 28, 1994.)
The Toxic Labyrinth is the chilling account of Heather’s struggle with symptoms which mimic asthma, chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, arthritis, and many other illnesses. All testing proves negative, and her condition is diagnosed as stress and anxiety.
When she becomes allergic to everything, Heather and her family are forced into a desperate race against time to save her life. As they probe for answers and challenge the findings of conventional medicine, the cause of the mysterious illness gradually become clear: Heather is being poisoned. The culprit-common chemicals which are so much a part of our twentieth century environment. However, with determination and her family’s support, Heather wins the battle.
This book is not just for those who suffer from the effects of our toxic environment, but for all who wonder if they could be next.
