I was ticked off too that after decades of healthy eating and exercise and no smoking, my husband got cancer.
His siblings were battling multiple health problems while downing pizza and perogies.
The doctor explained his healthy eating and lifestyle is WHY he had such a good response to treatment and is doing so well. A genetic marker predisposed to possible cancer was in the family. You can't choose your relatives.
Ginny, spouse of MikeG. SSC BOT T2N1M0 Stage III, Dx 06/27/06 at age 52, Tx 07/31/06 through 09/28/06 Chemo Cisplatin & 5FU x2, Radiation x42. Cancer free and doing well.
