Thankfully cancer doesn't run in my family, but somehow (bad luck I guess) I have lost a shocking amount of young friends or acquaintances to cancer now (all 40 years or younger). All were very healthy too (none were smokers, heavy drinkers, etc...).
I'm dreading hearing about more cases since Covid restrictions included delaying a lot of cancer screenings.
In my family, we rarely suffer from heart attacks and we only had one dead in last 40 years or so that died from cardiovascular disease. He was a heavy smoker and his non-smoking brother outlived him by almost thirty years.
But cancer is our faithful family enemy, even though it mostly comes late in life. Every tool against it will meet my approval.
