To me, this fight has always been a holy crusade of biblical proportions.
Many people already know part of my story. As a child growing up on a military air base in Virginia in the 1970s, I had my left kidney removed after developing cancer. I have long believed microwave radar exposure played a role.
My father was in charge of an attack squadron at the time. He was a decorated warrior who received the Distinguished Flying Cross during the Vietnam War. Backing away from a fight was never an option in my household. He taught honor above all else.
I flew with him regularly. Not many children in this world can say they took the controls of a DC-9 with Navy SEALs in the back, headed to Puerto Rico for live-fire training. I can. I did it when I was 10 years old.
Because of my father, I gained real-world experience early. He wanted me to understand how things worked, not just admire them from a distance. I am grateful for every lesson he gave me.
Flying gave me an early glimpse into the absolute importance of sound data. My father made it crystal clear: if you fuck up reading the data, people die. No exceptions.
That stayed with me.
It stays with you when you are 10 years old, sitting in the cockpit of a massive aircraft at 33,000 feet with some of the most elite warriors in the world behind you. The tolerance for mistakes was zero.
Understanding the data was paramount.
“The tolerance for mistakes was zero. Understanding the data was paramount.”
My mother was deeply religious, and my father wanted me in the best schools, so I attended a private Catholic school in Portsmouth, Virginia — a place where my father’s engineering prowess and my mother’s devotion to God both helped make me the man I am today.
Those early experiences helped me enter college before I could even drive, at 15.
Everything in my life was preparing me, though I did not know it yet, for the fight that was coming.
The day everything changed
Many of you also know I lost my firstborn daughter in 1995.
Her mother worked around three high-powered microwave radios during the first months of pregnancy. It was her job. But what I came to believe was that we had been given bad data about the safety of this wireless technology and the risks involved.
My daughter paid the price with her life.
That is why RF Safe exists.
Not for fame.
Not for money.
Not for attention.
RF Safe exists for one reason: to find the real data, make it known, and protect our children.
I have no other motivation.
“My daughter paid the price with her life. That is why RF Safe exists.”
But where this fight became biblical for me was the day she died.
Before her last breath, I made my daughter a promise. I would understand what was taking her away from me. And if I got even a glimpse of the cause, I would fight it for the rest of my life.
That was not a figure of speech.
That was a vow.
The chapel
At that point, I had not been in a church in seven years.
In 1988, a family member, Billy, was murdered. After that, I spent years wrestling with heaven and hell, suffering and justice, and how a just God could allow such things. I had questions nobody seemed able to answer. I pulled away from God because I was not finding anything that made sense to me.
Then Angel Leigh Coates died in my arms.
I was holding my daughter, looking into her eyes, when she slipped away.
I left that room shattered and walked into the hospital chapel — a small candlelit room, like a little church hidden inside the hospital.
And in that chapel, something happened to me that I cannot explain away.
I dropped to my knees.
What came over me was more than emotion. More than grief. More than shock.
It was overwhelming.
Even my vision was affected.
The only honest way I can describe it is this: it felt as if God were in that room with me. For about ten minutes, I was engulfed in something beyond myself. In that moment, I felt the truth about God and the nature of our reality.
And in that moment, I knew my daughter was in heaven.
I did not merely hope it. I did not try to convince myself of it. I knew it.
Something very real had just told me so.
And with that knowing came something else: a message as clear as anything I have ever understood in my life.
Fulfill the promise you just made to her.
“In that chapel, on my knees, that promise stopped being only the vow of a grieving father. It became my calling.”
That was the moment everything changed.
That was the moment this fight stopped being a private grief and became a public mission.
That was the moment this became biblical for me.
I knew then that this was something God Almighty wanted done, and I was the soldier who had vowed to do it.
RF Safe was born the day my Angel died.
Why I fight
Every experience I had ever lived through had prepared me for this.
The discipline.
The engineering mindset.
The reverence for truth.
The understanding that bad data kills.
The refusal to back away from a fight when lives are at stake.
This is why I do what I do.
I believe the public has been given incomplete, misleading, and often dangerously comforting narratives about wireless exposure and biological risk. I believe families deserve the truth. I believe parents deserve the truth. And I believe children deserve better than being used as the final proving ground for technologies that policy has failed to regulate responsibly.
This is not about fear.
This is about first principles.
This is about reducing unnecessary exposure where we can, telling the truth where others will not, and pushing for technologies and policies that better respect life.
That includes demanding better design, better public standards, better consumer education, and better infrastructure — including Li-Fi compatibility and light-based communication pathways that can help reduce dependence on unnecessary RF exposure.
For me, this is not abstract.
It is personal.
It is moral.
It is spiritual.
And it will remain that way until my last breath.
What people can do right now
Policy moves slowly. Biology does not.
Families do not need to wait for institutions to catch up before acting with common sense. There are practical steps people can take right now to reduce unnecessary exposure and make more informed choices.
Turn transmitters off when you are not using them
If a wireless function is not needed, disable it. That means turning off Wi‑Fi, Bluetooth, cellular, or other transmitters when they are not actively serving a purpose.
Keep phones off your body
Do not carry an active transmitting phone against your body when you can avoid it. Distance matters.
Do not sleep with your phone near you
Do not sleep with an active phone under your pillow, on your chest, or beside your head. If it must be nearby, minimize transmissions and maximize distance.
Limit children’s direct device exposure
Children are not miniature adults. Reduce unnecessary device time, avoid treating wireless devices like toys, and be especially mindful about proximity and duration.
Use wired and lower-exposure options whenever possible
Hardwired connections, speakerphone, air-tube options where appropriate, offline use, and deliberate device habits all help reduce needless exposure.
Demand better technology
Consumers should not have to choose between connectivity and common sense. Demand Li‑Fi compatibility, safer design principles, and policy that reflects biological reality rather than industry convenience.
“Families do not need to wait for policy to catch up before acting with common sense.”
Where Truth Case fits
The Truth Case is not a permission slip to ignore first principles.
It is not a replacement for distance.
It is not a replacement for turning transmitters off.
It is not a replacement for keeping devices off the body.
It is not a replacement for protecting children.
It is a first-principles design created to help people navigate this issue more intelligently while policy and product design lag behind biological reality.
Its purpose is to help inform, reduce avoidable harm where possible, and move people toward safer habits and better questions. It exists to support exposure-aware behavior — not to excuse reckless behavior.
That distinction matters.
Because no product alone solves a policy problem.
No accessory alone solves an infrastructure problem.
And no single consumer choice alone solves a public health problem.
But truth matters. Education matters. Design matters. And first-principles tools matter while we fight for something better.
This is a fight for love and life
I know not everyone shares my theology.
That is fine.
You do not have to describe this the way I describe it to stand on the right side of it.
But for me, this is spiritual to the core. It has been from the moment I rose from my knees in that hospital chapel knowing two things: my daughter was in heaven, and I had a promise to keep.
So when I say this fight is biblical for me, I mean it.
I believe we have made a catastrophic mistake by normalizing forms of exposure and technological deployment without enough respect for long-term biological truth. I believe ignorance has done real harm. And I believe love demands that we do better.
If you are helping protect families from unnecessary nnEMF exposure, if you are pushing for truth, if you are refusing to look away, then you are part of this fight.
Stay in the fight, my brothers and sisters.
Be RF Safe to be sure.
This is a fight for love.
This is a fight for life.
