Its sad, but Ralph is a Fighter. 2003 they gave him 8 weeks and he is still a Fighter.

I am so sorry to hear of  your husbands health problems. And may God give you all the energy both physical and spiritual you need to be a caregiver.
Call the Vietnam Veterans of America at 1-800- VVA-1316 and tell them you want a Service Officer in your area. And tell their legislative liaison about your desire to get melanoma on the list of illnesses.

I enjoy being of service and hope these postings continue in that vein.
Have you seen the movie “Unnatural Causes” starring John Ritter? It is the true story of how Agent Orange claims came to be accepted.  Very moving film.  All Agent Orange legislation laid the groundwork for the claims backward and forward in time. From Lou Gehrigs’ Disease to the current IOM research on Depleted Uranium, we can credit the pioneers in Agent Orange legislation. Especially Vietnam Veterans of  America.

I have friends exposed to Agent Orange with very bad health conditions.
