man i can remember back just 10-15 yrs - hearing of someone i knew that had been hit with cancer was so rare ... now? my GOODNESS! to meet someone who has not had it in their immediate family is rare now.

some say it is all genetics ,.... i say what is see says different ... life has become so sedentary since computer age and we eat so much junk / processed food now compared to what our parents served .. there HAS to be a connection, this along with pollution and chemicals being in things that we do not even know about... it is too much of an epidemic for there not to be a change that caused such a dramatic increase.

ANyways ... i am rambling but this disease makes me angry (in a not mad at anyone way) ...

I feel for Dot and pray that her journey is met with comfort and peace and a good report at the end - even if this scenario would defy all odds.
