Maybe these toxins we are exposed to catches up with some of us.
I just got out of the hospital after 6-1/2 weeks.  38 years old and
I have an agressive form of leukemeia which almost took my life.
I am in remission now and prognosis is good.
I just can't help thinking that it was caused by some toxin I unknowingly
was exposed to.  Maybe radio related.  I will never know.  Doesn't
really matter.  Just be careful folks.
