    To whom it may concern,

    I am a Thalidomide victum. My mother was given the drug when she was pregnant with me. I was born with no mouth (which they immediately took me out and “drilled a hole in the mouth area) so that my mom could feed me with an eye dropper (it took her 1 1/2 to feed me a half oz. of milk). Also I was born with no tongue, no left foot, a deformity in my left hand, an open cleff pallet (which was never closed) I still battle daily with my speach being understood (although if you listen closely you can understand me), plus chronic health issues due to the severe birth defects as well.

    I am seeking compensation now, but have never in the past done so. I do believe I am DUE the compensation for all the struggles I have had to face & will cont. to face for my entire life time. At the age of 3 yrs. I was a march of dimes poster child. I was born in 1964 in Oklahoma City, Okla. Prior to my birth my mother was a nurse and she had to quit work after my birth due to the severe birth defects I had. She had 7 other children who were and are in “perfect” health.

    I now live in Justin, Texas (USA). My questions is do I join the other victums in UK or is there a contact source here in the USA that I would need to seek the compensation?

    The older I becaome the struggles with my birth defects become larger. (ex. I have always had to be a bit careful when I drink to keep me from choking (due to me having no tongue and an open pallet, but yet never had any majior problen, but NOW as I am older I find myself choking more and more). In fact I was just at the ER yesterday for the swallowing issue.

    Anyways, I look forward to your response in hopes that I can get the compensation I deserve. I won’t stop this time until SOMEONE will HELP me and I am in hopes that you will be the one to help me.

    Thank you for your time,

    Bridget Johnson
