It was genetic, the reports I'm hearing (and heard when she announced the cancer diagnosis)are saying cancer ran in her family.

I'm sure the stress of Christopher's death didn't help matters any.

Now their, son who I believe is only 12, has to deal with both of his parents being dead.

I don't think you're crazy or stupid.

I think you're a troll.

Chris also has grown children, so they might raise Will.

>>>and "lung cancer" from a non-smoker is very rare.>>>

Not as rare as you'd think, especially if you have fallen for the propaganda.

I stayed off the Kirby Puckett thread just because some had to make it about themselves, so I say here, my prayers and condolences to his family for their loss.

Could well be the third already took place we just did not know who they were.

The suppressed WHO study, as well as others, have strong indications otherwise.

fyi.

Of course it was the laws after all...

Laws against murder cause murder.
Laws against rape cause rape.
Laws against robbery cause robbery.
Laws against public indecency cause a$$holes to post on FR.

Rather than using someone's death as a springboard, I suggest you start your own thread to peddle your own pet causes.

Vanity, of course.

At least it's cheaper.

Don't come stealing MY smoke, cheapskate - buy your own. ;-)

Lung Cancer kills more women in the US than any other type of cancer - an estimated 1 in 4 cancer deaths are from lung cancer and women are 1.5 times more likely to die from it than men. 87% of lung cancer deaths are smoking related - she was in the unfortunate 13%.

Marajuana is not tobacco. And as bad as tobacco is, marajuana is much worse.

Andy Kaufman also died from lung cancer, and never smoked. I believe that form of lung cancer is called oat cell cancer.
