"Sen. Ike Skelton told the Lake Sun Tuesday."
Skelton is in the House of Representatives - of course we can't expect newspaper reporters to know that.

All these articles are really scaring me. he has a high temp. too. They are probably 90% hype, but it never hurts to take a family member to the clinic, or yourself for that matter, if you have a bug. Better safe than sorry.

"...ricin has been one of Saddam Hussein's favorites. In the 1990s, United Nations inspectors uncovered a decade-long drive to grow and process castor beans for what Iraqi scientists belatedly acknowledged was for Iraq's weapons arsenal. The country's ricin stashes remain unaccounted for." "Minute quantities of ricin are lethal, and they vanish from the victim's body in hours with barely a trace, making it a notorious stealth murder weapon. "
Iraq & ricin

There are, in fact, several military programs to handle just such emergencies. Army Emergency Relief, Red Cross no-interest loans, to name two. I'm sure there are others, and private donations as well. But I agree with your sentiment, believe me.

"I have never seen him this sick. " Until you find out otherwise, treat it as a life threatening illness. Go to the doctor right now.
