In 2002, I lost my first wife and my brother to cancer, 3 weeks apart.

Wife had a very rare form of carcinoma that formed a large tumor behind her sinus cavity. Radiation shrunk it. and basically killed it. but it came back a few months later and spread all over. Tried chemo and more radiation but no luck. From time of finding it until when she died was about a year and a half.

My brother had a melonoma that started in his leg and spread. Was quick only about 6 months. He was a commercial roofer for almost 30 yrs. They figured it had to do with all the crap he worked with over the years.
