Lack of genetic diversification and poor personal health habits lead to this before any issues with chemicals in the air/water.


My younger brother was a health conscious non smoker. Died suddenly at age 22 from Ewing's. Not a single case in my family prior to him on either side.

Isn't Ewings a chromosomal mutation?

Sorry for your loss.

I grew up in a nursery (pretty large wholesale grower) in the 80's and 90's and we hand sprayed everything and handled a lot of chemicals. I've wondered at times if it would cause any health problems, but as of 38 yrs old, nothing. Who knows what will come down the road or the cause. I think overall, it has a lot more to do with what we ingest than what we have handled.
