🧵"I'm angry we are living through this...I don't want to know someone a year from now who died from cancer from being exposed to [toxic chemicals], I'm begging you to do something," -#EastPalestine's Lonnie Miller begging EPA & Norfolk Southern to relocate residents who want it

90 days of "excruciating unexplained muscle pain," 30 doctors visits, 6 antibiotics, 3 steroids, daughter "can't stop puking," -Lori, 3.4 miles from derailment, on family's health since derailment.

Husband also diagnosed w/ rare breast cancer post-derailment. Dogs also sick.

"I get these rashes, my eyes burn, burning in my mouth, the headaches, I get really bad sweating spells to where they smell like chemicals...my grandkids come over and their fine. Next morning they're congested & complaining of stomach problems," #EastPalestine's Chris Davis

If you have 2 hours this week/weekend, PLEASE WATCH/SHARE this whole #EastPalestine community meeting. One of the most powerful, heart wrenching, infuriating things we've covered. Reporting by @louisd, video by @JonFarinaPhoto

@louisd @JonFarinaPhoto SUPPORT our ON-THE-GROUND reporting. This is SC and @louisd217's 4th reporting trip to EP. Sadly, there was only 1 other media outlet present covering this. Majority of media has abandoned East Palestine. We will not but need funding to keep going back: StatusCoup.com/Join
