David Nette's Story - Part Three

I'm Not An Angry Man
Shortly after visiting an Edmonton, Alberta chiropractor and having her neck manipulated, David Nette's wife, Sandy, suffered a stroke. Both vertebral arteries in her neck were torn on the inside and she was left almost totally paralyzed.

In Part Three of his story, David talks about his lack of anger and the reasons he and Sandy are going after the basic beliefs of chiropractic in a risky class action suit.

Please share your stories with us.

A class action suit website has been established http://albertachiroclassaction.ca/

I went to a chiropractor one time only on a recommedation of a personal trainer, I immediately during this "treatment" that it was absolutely ridiclulous. I never went back despite their phone calls to me to come back for further "treatment" I believe the whole "profession" is total garbage. No one should go to a chiropractor. What kind of "science" is this anyway? I feel awful for Sandy and David, You are helping many people, past, present and future victims of these so called "doctors"

As someone who has practiced yoga, I don't think people get the benefits from the manipulation of the vertebra where they push on your spine. I feel that, the benefits are due to being placed in the various positions and stretching your body. This occurred to me when, I realized that, many of the positions my chiropractor put me in were vary much the same as yoga stretches. I quit going to the chiropractor after he claimed it cured cancer, deafness, and countless other illnesses. Its all voodoo.

@ihatthnwtt You're comparing vaccines with chiropractors??

I can only say what my experience has been..I injured my back in 93 and have had pain and numbness in both my legs. Chiro helps relieve the pain...just this month I had terrible pain in my left leg and found it hard to walk and sleep. Chiro helped relieve that...it has not cured my condition but has given me a better quality of life.

What do the MD's offer except surgery or pain meds?

I'm sorry to read about your wife. I pray that no one else ever has to experience what you two have gone through. Unfortunately, there are risks involved in everything we do. There are a small number of patients who become partially or fully paralyzed after vaccines, but I would not recommend that no one else ever gets vaccinated based on this, would you?

[ihatthnwtt]

As in all treatments there is a risk, its just too bad you tube does not have the space to show all the deaths, tragedys, over drugged people, demaged children due to vacines ect ect.......As a society you need to take a closer look to were the real demage is being inflicted on the population at large..........

i feel for this couple very much , i believe i would like to see if the chiropractor in question was negligent , dr.s lose patients everyday in operations , also there is whats called SALON SYNDROME where bending the head back in a sink cause strokes. mostly do to to to pre existing  conditions (athrosclorsis) sp? still what happened to this couple is terrible but i would look at the INDIVIDUAL CHIROPRACTOR their are reckless dr.s everywhere, god bless this couple

Thank you for your efforts in raising awareness in this subject. I was just about to give chiropractic adjustments a try when I stumbled on this video while doing my research on it. Further in my research I have seen how many cases of strokes have been reported with chiropractic care sought soon before the occurrence of the stroke. Thank you for the awareness again.
