Fisherman's Wife Breaks Her Silence

Kindra Arnesen is her name. She's decided to break her silence with the whole oil spill/fisherman's getting sick problem. Her husband David often calls her when he's out on fishing expeditions, so she wasn't surprised to get a call from him the other day. This call was different than most thought; he was calling to tell her he was sick. He told Kindra that several other men on the boat were sick too. They had symptoms such as dizziness, vommitting, and head aches. David believes that the vapor from the oil spill is infecting fisherman's bodies. BP is paying David to help clean up the oil spill since he cannot make a living fishing right now. Kindra was scared to talk publicly about the illnesses because she didn't want to "bite the hand that was feeding her family" People don't want to talk because they're scared, I don't think they should be scared. I think they should speak freely about it because it's BP's problem and they need to get this fixed a lot faster than they are.
