I am so sorry to hear this! I am afraid if they wait for the CDC it'll never happen - or if it does, will be biased because of what they say...

Thanks sunnydaze, I'm devastated...yet again, another kick in the head.
I'm sorry to say this...waiting for an announcement from the CDC is the biggest cop out I've ever heard.
I don't suppose the Aussie media would even consider rattling any chains with the Aussie government, since they're also sat on their fat butts waiting to hear from the CDC.

I made an error in my post on the 7th July 2010 - I said "60 Minutes were waiting on an "announcement" from the CDC before they will air the Morgellons story" - in actual fact the correct term used in the email to me was "pronouncement".
pro·nounce·ment (pr-nounsmnt) n. 1. A formal expression of opinion; a judgment. 2. An authoritative statement.
pronouncement [prəˈnaʊnsmənt] n 1. an official or authoritative statement or announcement 2. the act of pronouncing, declaring, or uttering formally
PLEASE - members of this forum and visitors to this forum WE need your HELP!!
Please write to Stephen Taylor (Producer) - 60 Minutes Australia email address; sttaylor@nine.com.au
Thank you sarahconnor

My comments above regarding an "announcement" versus "pronouncement" is neither here nor there. For obvious reasons, I can't share my email communication with Stephen Taylor, which ceased around July 2010. The last email I wrote to Stephen was on the 19th October, 2010 after listening to a radio interview by Dr Hildegarde Staninger. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (original email sent 19th October, 2010)
Dear Stephen,
Gill here - how are you?
I wanted to write to you & pass on this link I was sent today; www.tanker-enemy.tv/hildegarde-staninger-interview-video.htm
From a lay persons point of view, I have no medical experience either; this interview with Dr Staninger is the most informative, easy to understand explanation of Morgellons.
During the interview Dr Staninger is asked "What is happening with the CDC study" - she gives her honest reply - "she has NO idea". Dr Staninger IS a doctor of medicine, I do ask the most obvious questions at times, so please forgive me. Why is NO ONE (ie. media) taking any notice of what Dr Staninger is saying? The majority of research done to date on Morgellons, has been done by independent researches. It's the same for chemtrails, we know this is happening, we know our atmosphere is full of this man made junk. Why are people not the least bit curious as to WHY this is happening? My answer would be - if the public feel these sinister acts by their governments are not effecting them or mere internet hear say, think again.
Who knows what our future holds - when & how will those responsible for this atrocity up the anti? Morgellons has proven, thus far, to be a morphing condition, what is the next stage? Are the conspiracy theories the truth? Are we being prepared for the New World Order? Depopulation? Control?. I don't like to be pessimistic, but after suffering this nightmare, I don't see a bright future. However, on a daily basis I can't think about it. The numbers world wide for new Morgellons cases are 1,000 per day.
I am hopeful, that this interview could give you some fresh ideas for how 60 Minutes could possibly approach this story. I do understand that this is very political, however, I think the Morgellons mystery has gone on far too long now. In my opinion, the DOP debate needs to be acknowledged, as I believe DOP is incorporated with this condition, & has been the experience of most sufferers. The DOP "entity" is real, though from memory DOP articles do not explain what this "entity" actually is.
As I said, I do hope that 60 Minutes will consider airing a story in 2011 about Morgellons.
Thanks for your time Stephen. Kind regards Gill Penkethman------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ As things stand today, I can't say who is right & who is wrong about what "Morgellons" actually is. All I can say is that I "tried" to get the media to support us - but to no avail. I have a question for everyone - "Would it ease your suffering of Morgellons if a story about this disease was to be aired on Australian Television?".Thanks sarah

Since I'm on a roll I may as well give you the entire dirt, nothing ventured, nothing gained.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ (email original format - 30th May 2010)
Dear Stephen,
You would have no doubt received some emails from approximately 4 M's sufferers by now. I will be perfectly honest with you & say that I did approach many & they turned down the offer of writing to 60 Minutes. "We" believe the media is biased & deceitful. I have no idea if this is the case for 60 Minutes, but I would have thought that something would have happened by now.
You & I first spoke at the end of October 2009 & you did say then that the M's story was a priority. Now things look very different, we are almost in June.
One sufferer (& I know it's only "one") has been anxious to know when this story will go to air. I suggested she write & ask you, unfortunately she replied saying she refuses since you never even took the time to acknowledge her writing to you in the first place.
What you must realise Stephen is that these people have put their heart & soul into writing to you, leaving them feeling even more vulnerable than they already are.
I feel that the M's story will now be put on the back burner since the oil spill in America.
If 60 Minutes are waiting on the CDC you may as well forget about the M's story altogether. The CDC will hold out us for as long as the want because they can!
Peoples lives are being ruined every minute of the day because of this insidious disease. Misdiagnoses of mental illness are being thrown at people in turn destroying their lives.
Take Tony & I for example. We have a meeting this coming Friday (4th June) with the Department of Human Services. These people have been in our lives for 18 months - why? - because on the 5th December 2008 a Psychiatric Nurse & a Psychiatrist walked into my home & after speaking with me for 30 minutes concluded that I was delusional & schizophrenic.
William, our son, was taken from us for 5 months, placed in foster care. DoHS informed me this had to happen because it was unsafe for my son to be around me for any longer than 10 hours a week. How did they come to this conclusion? - so called Mental Health 'experts' informed them I had a psychiatric illness.
The meeting on Friday is to decide if DoHS stay in our lives or go. The meeting will discuss if there are any protection concerns & whether there are any mental health issues. What if I was truly schizophrenic, why the discrimination against mentally ill people?
For people in the mental health system & DoHS it's a 'job', for us it's our lives!
My parents have always believed I have this condition because they witnessed fibers coming out of my skin. My mother even gave a statement to DoHS about Morgellons...like water off a ducks back...they don't care, & these people (DoHS) continue to cause me anxiety & fear. I've lost my child once, who's to say it won't happen again. All because people are not prepared to see this disease for what it is - REAL!
I await your reply.
Regards Gill
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ (email original format - 30th May 2010)
Hi Stephen
I understand that Gillian has sent you an email today. Let me give you a bit of an insight regarding Morgellons from a partner of a Morgellons sufferer. My name is Tony O'Donnell and have known Gillian for over 24 Years - we have lived and been partners from very early 2001.
I can hear what you are thinking as I type this email - "What in Gods name did I open this can of worms for? - and how the hell do I get it closed again?" Because that is what this disease is "A bloody can of worms" and its easier for 99.99% of Doctors to say - and I quote "That should not happen" I have been to numerous appointments regarding this disease with Gillian and you can almost hear the doctor as we leave the Hospital/Clinic/Specialist - "She is either nuts or looking for attention" Let me assure you as GOD as my witness - I have witnessed all of what she describes. She is such a tough and feisty lady and doesn't like to be pissed off by anyone. SHE IS SICK of it - it has destroyed her life and I am not far behind - believe you me - I was so close to saying get out of my life and go and whinge at someone else - I have a life to live as well - but NO I stuck through it.
Please if you are going to run the story SAY SO - if not SAY SO. Watch the video (YouTube) that tells IT all - all her own work - I just purchased the microscope and got it all working - BIG DEAL. This email is not about me - it's about Gillian and all the other sufferers.
BTW - Don't hold your breath regarding the CDC report - it will never come out (that is my gut feel) - I am not one to blow sunshine up anyones arse - just tell it like it is. If the story is too hard (you are brave taking it on in the first place) I will go back to watching stupid stories regarding Neighborhood disputes and other crappy filler stories you run - Which I understand totally (being a bit harsh there on 60 mins - I like it as a current affair)
But IF YOU are waiting for the CDC to release their findings (I stress this again) DON'T hold your breath otherwise you will be dead and buried long before the CDC releases anything - maybe the CDC think that all these sufferers will just GO AWAY - I can guarantee they won't.
You will get no information about Morgellons from the Government - Gillian has been there done that - Howard/Rudd/Roxan/DHS etc etc etc
YES - a lot of nut cases try and debunk this disease because they have nothing better to do with their time - and boy there are some VERY nasty people out there communicating with very sick people.
If you want any information (expertly filtered) about this disease don't ask me ask Gillian - she will tell you who is a nutter and which doctors are quacks.
There you go - warts and all - feel free to respond but I know you are a very busy man.
I am a 48 year old Electronic Engineer (B.E. Comm Eng) RMIT 1984 and I am not a stupid man - I try and analyze the situation for what its worth and try different things in a controlled way. BUT I AM NO DOCTOR - but on the other hand most of the doctors have "DR" in front of their names purely to make money and write scripts - I could have a DR title in front of my name if I spent a further 12 months doing my post graduate study.
Thats it from me
Kind regards
Tony O'Donnell

Dear Admin,
The reason for my request to have the "media alert" deleted, re: 60 Minutes doing a story on Morgellons, is because the story is NOT going to happen.
Let's not give people false hope.
Thanks for your help sarah

Your right Sarah, we've gotten the bums rush, morgellons is dead in the water. I am sure that micro-biologist avoid morgies like the plague. First of all it is dangerous to work on the stuff, outside a contained lab. I would think. I dont think anyone wants to be the next victim of elimination. I think the mental health has been coersed, plus medical. I believe it is the alien factor, and you know what length the gov. has gone to covering up alien contact. I believe when they divie up all their info. about aliens, then and only then, will the truth be known. The way things are going with all the sightings, it cant be to far in the future.

Hi Amron and Sarah,
I followed this thread and it does explain (Thanks to the both of you) that this 60 minutes show is dead.
It might be good to understand later that someone was pushing for it as a possiblity early on.

Hi Admin,
Thanks for your note.
60 Minutes are doing a stand off with the CDC. 60 Minutes are scared for their reputation.
Stephen Taylor, should YOU be reading this; WHY did you invest so much money in going to the USA to learn about Morgellons?
WHY promise to interview me, then delay me, then tell me good things come to those who wait & we will win in the end?
Our last phone call you told me we had to be mindful to those with DOP??? and maybe if I were to quit smoking I might feel better!
Thanks for nothing 60 Minutes.
P.S. Please dispose of my personal information being; time line of events & doctors I have seen appropriately. Thank you.

One more thing Stephen (should you be reading).
You said the "Morgellons" story was a "work in progress". Please explain to me how people getting sicker world wide is a work in progress?
I know you said you have no medical expertise & are a humble TV producer.
I'd say by now you need your eyes tested!
Also, what happened to 60 Minutes finding a doctor to examine me?
I don't think YOU want to believe that this atrocity is in Australia. Denial is a safe place for some.
I never thought I'd say this, but by God I hope you get this disease!

Dear Prime Minister,
I sent an email to you about a month ago and was wondering why no one has got back to me as yet.
I do understand and respect that you have been very busy in your role as our countries leader, with all the natural disasters and catastrophes happening around the world. I do feel however that the issue of Morgellons Disease and the lack of Government support both here in Australia and America is of grave importance.
Below is a copy of an email I sent to Dr Clare A. d**ewicz, MD, MPH, Medical Epidemiologist, National Center for Infectious Diseases, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 1600 Clifton Rd, NE, Mailstop E64, Atlanta, GA 30333 (e-mail: cad3@cdc.gov).
Dear Dr d**ewicz,
My name is Gillian Penkethman & I live in Melbourne Australia. I am writing to you on behalf of the citizens of Australia & my friends around the globe with this insidious disease we refer to as Morgellons Disease.
You may or may not recall that around 2005 - 2006 I made a phone call to the CDC. You returned my phone call & we spoke for approximately 25 minutes. You were very well aware of Morgellons & said that you had had thousands of phone calls.
I do recall that your parting comment to me was "hang in there & something good might happen".
Since our conversation back then, yes something "good" did happen - I gave birth to a beautiful baby boy. Unfortunately my suffering of Morgellons has never gone away. I was once again diagnosed DOP whilst pregnant.
I tried to work with my health care providers (as CDC states) but unfortunately our health care providers are convinced Morgellons is DOP. Since the birth of my son I have been involuntary admitted to the Psychiatric Hospital twice for making too much noise about Morgellons being real. The worst part being, my son was taken from me for 5 months & placed into foster care. I was also placed on a court order to have Depo antipsychotic injection in my butt every 2 weeks!!
We are now in 2011 and the CDC still haven't made an announcement about their study. The Australian Government are standing firm, they refuse to notify health care providers of this condition until the CDC makes an announcement.
Please Dr d**ewicz, I don't know how you can lay straight in bed at night knowing that this atrocity is going on. Families are being destroyed because of the LIE of DELUSIONS OF PARASITOSIS!
I await your urgent reply.
Sincerely Gillian Penkethman

Email sent this morning to Stephen Taylor, 60 Minutes.
Dear Stephen,
I haven't heard from you in over 6 months, & I don't believe you have given me a real explanation as to why you decided to ignore me. If you recall you were the one who tracked me down & you made a point of telling me NOT to talk to any other media about Morgellons. Like a fool I agreed, so when I was approached by a magazine to do a story for them, as well as them paying me $400 I turned down the offer.
These days I can not even get a reply from the Prime Minister, & our Health Minister Nicola Roxon is also ignoring us. What is it going to take to get someone in the media world to tell the truth about this disease?
As for you waiting on a pronouncement from the CDC - that is the biggest cop out I have ever heard.
Hope to hear from you soon. Kind regards Gillian Penkethman

I did get a reply back from Stephen. He said he has tried to learn about Morgellons disease, but the more he read about the disease, the less he understand. Since no one has been able to tell the truth about what this disease is, 60 Minutes are unable to put a story together. So we're waiting on the CDC.

My final dialogue with 60 Minutes. Please read bottom to top.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sent: 5th May 2011 - by me
Your email to me marked 'private and confidential' was a total set up.
The fact that you lied through your teeth from the onset makes me sick. The fact that YOU made promises you couldn't keep makes me even sicker.
Are you aware that there are people killing themselves over their suffering of Morgellons?
You learnt all you needed to learn, but either you &/or your colleagues told you to leave this alone. Word of warning - before you go delving into peoples lives, collecting their personal information & blowing sunshine up their behind & then not following through you have caused me more hurt than you will ever know. You had the power to make a change - but you didn't - why? you don't believe in this plain & simple.
I don't suppose you really give two hoots that people like myself struggle (not everyday) with wanting to end our lives.
You will rue the day you ever made contact with me.
_________________________________________________ (another reply by me)
You think you've had a hard time trying to understand Morgellons? I've had a hard time trying to understand YOU and your agenda.
Was I not good enough to be interviewed Stephen? Did I not give you the gutsy story that you were after? You want to hear about me digging this nuts from my body? Sorry, that's my business, not for naysayers such as yourself.
I'm going to the ABC, my dad was right, commercial stations suck.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Stephen,
The fact that you promised to interview me & stated "the Morgellons story was a priority" is extremely disappointing.
As I said, I don't want to cause problems for you or I. I simply want to get help for everyone. I sent you the link so you could see I wasn't using your information in a vindictive manner. If you are that upset about it call Alex Jones yourself!
Hope you had a lovely Easter. Regards Gill
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
My email to you was marked 'private and confidential', and the fact you ignored that is disappointing. As a consequence, I don't propose communicating with you further.
Stephen Taylor ________________________________________ From: Gillian Penkethman Sent: Monday, April 25, 2011 7:11 PM To: Taylor, Stephen Subject: Alex Jones Show
Without Prejudice
Dear Stephen,
I'm sending you this link to let you know I shared one of your emails in a letter to Alex Jones. Please see link; (link removed for privacy reasons).
He is aware of Morgellons & was talking about it in depth on his show a couple of nights ago.
Please understand I am not trying to cause trouble for you or myself - especially since you marked your email to me "Private & Confidential".
I can promise you Stephen, your last email communication with me will not be posted on the internet.
All the best & thanks Gil
