I knew vets who were concerned about it, never knowing for sure if they were affected by it. How would they know if they were exposed for sure, and not just generally because they were in Vietnam? Thanks.
My father was a Vietnam Vet from 69-70. In 1993 he was diagnosed with Innerstitial Lung Disease, that later turned into Lung Cancer in 2006. He also on top of the lung disease was diagnosed with Rhematoid Arthritis. All due to Agent Orange from Vietnam. He passed away from the lung cancer on March 17 2007 as we celebrated his life at his benefit. I miss my dad everyday and hate Agent Orange. For years my dad suffered from this stuff. Please do share my story, only way to make it known is to share other's stories. Thank you.
