As I search the new I find information on sarcoidosis cases and came across this one from last year of Police Officer James J. Godbee of the NYPD. My condolences goes out to his family as I can only imagine how hard this is for them. He he goes off to lend a hand in the rescue efforts after the 9/11 attacks in ground zero and he ends up with sarcoidosis. What they are writing is that he somehow got sarcoids after breathing in toxins from the site. He then has a heart attack 3 years later cause by complications from sarcoidosis. The family believes that he should be included among the death cause by the attacks and in essence they are right because had it not been for the attacks he would probably be on the job still today. I think this is a big smoking gun and I keep writing about the 9/11 connections to sarcoids. This is an opportunity being pass on because something in that toxic mix of dangerous dust cased sarcoidosis is many people some acute, some chronic. If we can find some sort of trigger then that would put scientists on the right path to find better treatment or perhaps even a cure.
