Jenny Fry, a teenager who had had crippling headaches, bladder problems and battled tiredness was recently found hanging on a tree, after she had a rare allergic reaction to WiFi. Jenny was having reactions to the electro-hypersensitivity (EHS) caused by WiFi connection at her school.
Her body was found hanging from a tree at Brooke woods, near her home in Chadlington, Oxon., at 4.20pm on June 11, after she had texted her friend earlier in the day she won't make it to school.
Jenny Fry suffered allergic reaction to WiFi
Jenny's parents, Debra and Charles Newman said that they had removed the WiFi connection from their home, but the WiFi is still used at her school, Chipping Norton School, Oxon. Ms Fry said that Jenny was showing signs of EHS in November 2012, and after some some research, she found out that WiFi is harmful around the house after she herself was getting sick, and it was taken out from the house.
She said:
Both Jenny and I were fine at home but Jenny continued to be ill at school in certain areas. She was receiving lots of detentions, not for being disruptive in class or misbehaving, but often because she used to take herself out of the classroom to find another where she was able to work. She took her schoolwork seriously.
I took lots of information into school to show the headteacher, Simon Duffy, but he said there was equally the same information available claiming WiFi was safe. I also had a heated exchange with teachers telling them Jenny was allergic to WiFi and that it made no sense making her take detentions in rooms that were making her ill.
The least they could do was allow her to take them in rooms where she felt able to concentrate, but they wouldn't listen.I fully believe Jenny did not intend to take her own life. I think she was frustrated with school.
She would not see a doctor but was seeing a counsellor at school who was helping her.She had not made any suggestions she was thinking of suicide and I believe it was a cry for help.
Jenny Parent are now looking for ways that government can help remove WiFi from schools, and have started campaign and asking government to research into this.
