Didn’t read the article but heard his time was short. Heard during the same report that his wife is also in the final stages of pancreatic cancer.

Sadly, curt schilling recently revealed both illnesses on his podcast, without their permission. He even acknowledged on the podcast that he didn’t have their permission but said that he wanted to talk about it as a Christian.

Shameful.

Something is amiss. Tim Wakefield dies from cancer in October and now his wife dies from cancer.

it is statistically improbable for two married people to prematurely die from cancer under age 65 unless……🤔

…They happen to be one of the couples that both died from cancer?

Improbable? Sure. But certainly far from impossible. Nothing amiss, sometimes awful things happen with unlikely odds.

Correct. Radon in houses all over the Northeast, housing projects built over former Superfund toxic dump sites, electrical grid radiation, you name it, we can get sick from it these days. My wife's mother and two aunts all died of pancreatic cancer in one year, nothing to connect it for any of them, but the odds are still there for it to happen.

I recently came in contact with guy whose wife recently died of lung cancer. He also had lung cancer at the same time. Neither were smokers. They lived in an old farm house with a stone foundation. They apparently had an abnormally high level of radon coming through their foundation and into their house causing the cancer.
