This last year has been a hard uphill climb to inform the public, the
medical profession and the government agencies about PPD. At the
Sirius Rising Henna Conference 2000, I got the assignment to prepare
information on PPD black henna to present to media and suchlike ....
and thus I did

http://reverndbunny.sphosting.com/mediappd.htm
http://reverndbunny.sphosting.com/ppdburns.html
and have all helped tremendously.

Papers such as http://www.smw.ch/pdf200x/2001/2001-13/2001-13-351.PDF
have been wonderful.

The feature Fox News did on PPD black henna (aired in many cities last
month, done with beaucoup material from my harddrive, and much time
with the camera on me as I ranted on PPD vs traditional henna) seems
to have reached many, many people! Also, the BBC, London Times, New
Zealand Republic, KCOP 13 LA, and many other media features that I've
personally worked with, have gotten the word out with as much clarity
and responsibility on the issues as I could get them to press into
limited space.

PPD black henna has been banned in many places ... but as long as
Bigen is available over the counter with no warnings, there's going to
be a big problem!

I've personally worked with over 100 people who've had injuries, and
couldn't get proper diagnosis or proper treatment because of the
general level of ignorance. Because the issues of henna and PPD are
complex and can't be grasped quickly by the stupid, government
officials are lagging behind in getting these things sorted. It's
going to be a long climb uphill yet.
