I was born in Tamaqua Pa. in 1964 and my wife was born in 1966. At the age of 23 I was diagnosed with testicular carsamoma, treated at miners memorial for 2 years by Dr. Paul Roda one of the Oncologist that participated in the research study, at that time 3 of my friends where diagnosed with the same . Over the 38 years I lived in Tamaqua I watched many friends and family Die Cancer related Deaths. One particulary sticks out in my mind. She told me as a young man of 15 Quote ( It's In The Water ) .. At that time I was not sure what she was saying , Months later she passed from brain cancer. Through the years I began to understand .
