Please visit my website www.carledavid.com for an extensive overview of my latest book, "BADER FIELD" a non fiction family saga with a powerful message.

My latest book, "Bader Field" (Nightengale Press, 2008) began as homage to my father, my hero, Samuel David, the legendary art dealer whose life was cut short by a major coronary at the young age of 58. As the book developed, a greater purpose emerged. The fabric of our family was woven with the tragic loss of one of my older brothers to suicide. Bruce, at the tender age of twenty-two took his own life leaving behind a trail of horror and devastation. No note, no clues, completely shocking our idyllic 1960's American family with a permanently unresolved question as to why. Although the reason matters not, for it wouldn't bring him back, it would perhaps have offered some insight and understanding, albeit little comprehension or solace.

I recognized my need to open a wide reaching dialogue, showing the realistic nightmare of suicide, having lived through it. As a survivor, I am on a dedicated mission to lift the veil of shame that protects this violent act and lets it thrive. Suicide is a leading killer of children and it needs to be stopped. Pre-teens, teens and young adults who are most vulnerable, need to know that if they are on that last edge of desperation, that there is help for them. They are not alone, there is love and light and always a better way. They do not come back. Taking one's life is a permanent solution to a temporary situation. The wake of pain and suffering that it leaves upon family members and friends is something that needs to be seen and understood for perhaps that in itself might be a life saving measure. More than a million people a year take their lives. I am working tirelessly to have "Bader Field" made in to a movie. As a film or documentary I feel quite strongly that the impact would be dramatic and long lasting and would awaken and rally the world to this cause. Books are inspiring and effective; movies and documentaries are far more powerful and influential.

Please visit my website (www.carledavid.com) for a more comprehensive overview of the book and its bigger purpose.

This is my way of paying it forward. I am on a quest to reach out and make a difference, taking the darkest days of my life and turning them into a path of light with the hope of saving lives...even one.

I have attached images of the front and back covers as well as a synopsis and would be happy to send you a copy of the book itself.

Perhaps there is some way in which we could work together.

Comment by Merle Savage on February 11, 2010 at 10:35am

Dr. Riki Ott has devoted her life to taking control from corporations and giving it back to people. I am only one of many workers whose quality of life was determined in 1989 by Exxon. If corporations continue to control our legal system, then we the people become victims. Please view: MovetoAmend.org

My name is Merle Savage; I was a general foreman on three different barges during the Exxon Valdez Oil Spill (EVOS) beach cleanup in 1989. It was a challenging adventure with hazardous environmental conditions and demanding situations – which turned into 20 years of extensive health deterioration.

In 2007 I learned how toxic the hot water beach spraying was from Dr. Riki Ott. She also informed me that Exxon's medical records and reports that surfaced in litigation brought by sick workers in 1994 had been sealed from the public, making it impossible to hold Exxon responsible for their actions.

Exxon developed the toxic spraying; OSHA, the Coast Guard, and the state of Alaska authorized the procedure; VECO and other Exxon contractors implemented it. Over 70 percent of the 11,000-plus work force was subjected to breathing in the toxic fumes 12-16 hours a day. Beach crews breathed in crude oil splashed off the rocks and into the air: the exposure turned into chronic breathing conditions and central nervous system problems, along with other massive health issues, which continues.

My website is devoted to searching for EVOS cleanup workers who have been exposed to the toxic spraying and are suffering from the same illnesses as me. Our summer employment turned into a death sentence for many -- and a life of unending medical conditions for the rest.
