Since I'm not a member of them, could you possibly forward this to them for me? Thanks!! Annie Where I live now, 2 women, 2 dogs, and 2 cats, have died of cancer within the last 8 years or so, and 2 women and 1 dog currently have cancer. This is all within 5 neighboring houses around a quiet intersection and 1 house that's 1 house away. Does anyone know whether this constitutes a cancer cluster, and how a cluster is determined to be one? I'm wondering how safe this neighborhood is...and whether you'd find this anywhere in the country where there were older people and pets...Certainly the women all used heavy laundry & other household chemicals. One dyes her hair--I don't know about the other three. One family owns a small heating oil business, so their oil truck is often here, and two of the neighbors use large amounts of pesticides on their lawns as well, endangering pets and others of us who live next door. Any advice or thoughts on any level would be really welcome. Any specific questions I might ask to determine this? Annie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
