re: It feels like cancer is becoming a younger disease

This thread is scary. I worry about this daily, especially now being a mother. I often wonder if it is the exposure to more wireless technologies and microwaves. Hell, I even worry that our video monitors are bad for us sometimes.

I agree that there is too much crap in our foods.

I also worry that we expose our bodies to too much synthetic drugs (over the counter and prescription) that we simply don't need. I wonder if that plays a role in cancer causing agents.

I did read once that hormone imbalance can play a role in cancer

I worry way too much about it, but its hard for me not to with two small kiddos. I love them too much and also I don't want them growing up without a parent.

In the last 5 years, my mom has survived breast cancer and stomach cancer. She had to have a double mastectomy and had probably 75% of her stomach removed. Both cancers were within 2-3 years of each other. She is doing great today though.
