Hey Chirley,
The growing up in the country hit home. My husband was raised on a farm but also we lived in the Beaumont, Port Arthur areas of Texas that has many chemical plants and refineries. He is a bladder cancer survivor and we always thought the bladder cancer might have been from breathing the air there. His urologist does a landslide business in that area with cancers of the bladder. Henry was in the building material business and the lumber, etc were treated with chemicals. Just can't win for losing!
