For example, one person's medicine may be deadly poison to another person. We are all different and vulnerable to different things. I remember reading a poll once that showed that a VERY high percentage of CML sufferers had once been smokers. (A high source of benzene) This could also apply to second hand smoke. Some of us can take it, and some cannot. One tree will die from a blight, and the next tree can be impervious to it. Benzene is also found in Javex bleach and hair colorants. Some may be affected....some not. Vivi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Not everyone with CML owns granite countertops although that is an interesting news item. Benzene is also thought to cause leukemia but not everyone is in contact with it, either. Like everyone else in our tribe, I, too, tried to figure out what could have caused my CML and the easiest thing to think of was that for four years, I lived about twenty miles from Three Mile Island, just before the news of the radiation leak there was reported. But really, who knows what triggers this disease in any one of us?
