My dad and my Aunt's say they were from the fact that he got Agent Orange in the Viet Nam war. If I'm correct, that was some kind of gas, or pesitcide the US dropped to clear away foliage so they could thier enemy better. It was apprently in extremly high doses. Much more than they thought. If anyone knows more about this I'd LOVE to know about it. Thanks and hope everyone is doing as well as can be expected!
